Plugin logstash-output-lumberjack not available for Vers. 5

[lordofthings]

Hi all,

The plugin logstash-output-lumberjack is still not available for Logstash 5.x
Does anybody now what happen with it and if it will be available near future?

This project is still active on github (https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-output-lumberjack) but the last build version is 10 month old. The last version 3.1.3 is still failing.

At elastic repository this plugin can't be found.

At elastic repository this plugin can't be found.

No, that error message indicates that the plugin manager's HTTP client is unable to connect to artifacts.elastic.co:443. It has nothing to do with the lumberjack output plugin.

The file https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/logstash-plugins/logstash-output-lumberjack/logstash-output-lumberjack-5.3.3.zip doesn't exist.

The logstash-plugin could make the plugin it self with gems., but it think it would be much easer if the ready zip file where there for download

thanks
