Logstash Docker images

How to build the image

make clean

How to use this image

Start Logstash with commandline configuration

docker run -it --rm logstash -e 'input { stdin { } } output { stdout { } }'

Start Logstash with configuration file

If you need to run logstash with a configuration file, logstash.conf, that's located in your current directory, you can use the logstash image as follows:

docker run -it --rm -v "$PWD":/config-dir logstash -f /config-dir/logstash.conf

Using a Dockerfile

If you'd like to have a production Logstash image with a pre-baked configuration file, use of a Dockerfile is recommended:

FROM logstash

COPY logstash.conf /some/config-dir/

CMD ["-f", "/some/config-dir/logstash.conf"]

Then, build with docker build -t my-logstash . and deploy with something like the following:

docker run -it --rm my-logstash
