My Log file have part of info and API will have a part of information for a SINGLE EVENT
Is it possible to merge these two info as a single document using Logstash [via any of input-plugin/grok pattern] ?
For example , below is my log
**INFO stream 2015-11-18 14:57:29 7YT65U 1507985470 12.126.143.210 23.231.189.62 443 3625 3752 1.803 http**
API Output:
**{**
**"CurrentConnections": "1789",**
**"TotalConnections": "63689",**
**"TotalAcceptedConnections": "63589",**
**"TotalRejectedConnections": "100"**
**}**
I have to merge above two values.
Also please let me know, is there possible to execute scripts in logstash ?.

You'll probably have to write a custom plugin, or maybe make the API call from a ruby filter.
