So i just found out logstash5.x does not support gzip as input, and the community plugin is broken for the 5.x versions so i'd like to know if logstash support getting compressed input of any kind, sending a compressed data is a must have in my case.  
from a quick searchs i didn't find any and i'd hope mabye you guys can help 🙂 thanks everyone.
