2 months ago Hey @kevinsweet, I'm wondering if you know which 'team' to assign this to?
I'm wondering if there has a been a general migration to a new code editor (looks like monaco) that may have removed the ability to copy and search the code like the previously version?
Describe the feature: Please add the ability to search the entire Logstash pipeline thats open in the Stack Management --> Pipelines --> Edit "Pipelines" tab as well as the ability to copy and paste directly from the pipeline window.
Describe a specific use case for the feature: When editing a pipeline I like to double check for duplicates within a portion of the pipeline. At this time, if you use the ctrl +f search function (Chrome), the only thing it will search is whats visible on the page from the pipeline, not the rest of the configuration. I could be mistaken here but I'm pretty sure that you could search the entire pipeline within some versions of Kibana through the use of ctrl +f. With that said this could be a web browser issue and I primarily use Google Chrome which is often updated like many browsers are. In order to search through the entire pipeline for duplicates I use the keyboard, ctrl +a (all), ctrl +c, paste the pipeline into Notepad++, and then search for the IP's or other aspects of the pipeline. In the image I was able to find 5000 as it was on the screen but if I searched for 10.1.1.1 or elasticsearch nothing would come up.
The other option thats missing is you can't utilize the mouse to copy and paste an update into the pipeline. This may also be browser specific all well but overall the Edit Pipeline section seems to be missing some functionality.
If this is user error please feel free to let me know in the comments and I'll adjust.
