Before I go create my own, is there a published logstash grep pattern for Shield audit logs? The audit message is published like so for us at the INFO level:

> [2015-11-05 09:33:58,959][INFO][shield.audit.logfile] [esprod-masterclient00] [transport] [access\_granted]\torigin\_type=[rest], origin\_address=[/10.50.4.6:40433], principal=[search\_admin], action=[indices:data/write/index], indices=[category]

Each log level obviously adds and removes fields from the message so its a little work get them all accounted for. Hoping someone has already done it and willing to share? 😄
