I'm trying to input avro file and link it to its avsc file and write that into elasticsearch.

This is my config file,

input {  
file {  
path =\> "twitter.avro"  
type =\> "avro"  
codec =\> { avro =\> {  
schema\_uri =\> "twitter.avsc"  
}  
}  
}  
}   
filter {  
#Only matched data are send to output.  
}  
output {  
elasticsearch { hosts =\> ["localhost:9200"] }  
stdout{ codec =\> json }  
}

I keep getting this error,

[2017-06-23T13:15:05,644][ERROR][logstash.agent] Cannot create pipeline {:reason=\>"undefined method `execution\_context=' for ["avro", {"schema\_uri"=\>"C:/config/twitter.avsc"}]:Array"}

Kindly help.
