**file** : [https://github.com/elastic/beats/blob/a6e232f633480603d7a7e99773841bdc4fa64a62/filebeat/processor/add\_kubernetes\_metadata/matchers.go](https://github.com/elastic/beats/blob/a6e232f633480603d7a7e99773841bdc4fa64a62/filebeat/processor/add_kubernetes_metadata/matchers.go)

**line** : 42

**code** :

```auto
if logPath[len(logPath)-1:] != "/" {
		logPath = logPath + "/"
	}

```

there should be use _os.Separator_ or _filepath.Separator_ instead of the char "/"
