Hi - I built a gem locally, and I would need to install it on the logstash to consume those methods in my logstash ruby block. Would you please help me in installing it ? And also could you please let me know how do I use the def blocks in losgtash ? Thanks ---

Please explain what the problem is and the solution you have tried in more detail. I literally can't imagine the setup behind your question. ---
