Logstash input via website user file upload

Elastic Stack Logstash
1

Hi, Im very new to the whole ELK stack and Im still learning. For my current project Im required to process some MongoDB log files uploaded by user through our website and I have trouble figuring out how I should configure my input at all. For now I managed to use the file input, but only locally and add basic filter function.

My other question is... Could I do this process without running the elasticsearch on the website ? All I need is for logstash to parse my .log file into something I can process slightly better since I plan to be doing data visualization myself.

To answer your second question, there is no requirement to use other parts of the elastic stack. You can use logstash to process a file to a file in another format.

Thank you, that might help a bit:)
