I use the postgis function called `ST_AsText` to get the geometry field of postgres. That way, logstash's input is possible. But there is a problem. Since it is a string type, I want to move it to geo\_shape for elasticsearch. If you have had this problem, I hope you will share it. Thanks for reading.
