beats-output-http

Outputter for the Elastic Beats platform that simply POSTs events to an HTTP endpoint.

Usage

To add support for this output plugin to a beat, you have to import this plugin into your main beats package, like this:

package main

import (
	"os"

	_ "github.com/raboof/beats-output-http/http"

	"github.com/elastic/beats/filebeat/cmd"
)

func main() {
	if err := cmd.RootCmd.Execute(); err != nil {
		os.Exit(1)
	}
}

Then configure the http output plugin in filebeat.yaml:

output:
  http:
    hosts: ["some.example.com:80/foo"]
