I'm using logstash to index data from mysql to elasticsearch.  
**Is there a way to convert this output:**  
"interests" : [  
{  
"interest\_id" : "1,2",  
"interest\_name" : "Business,Farming"  
}  
]

**To this:**  
"interests" : [  
{  
"interest\_id" : "1",  
"interest\_name" : "Business"  
},  
"interest\_id" : "2",  
"interest\_name" : ",Farming"  
]

**from filter section in logstash.**  
Please help i'm trying to do this since couple of days i tried using split filter but it didn't work.
