No meta on messages

[MagicMicky]

It seems that I can't get the meta from rabbitmq. I configured the input plugin to connect to an exchange, and used the metadata_enabled field to let the plugin add messages metadata.

But both on stdout and kibana from my elk stack, I can't find any @metdata field.

Here is my config :

input {
 rabbitmq {
   queue => "my_queue"
   host => "myhost"
   port => 8000
   vhost => "/dev"
   exchange => "exchange" # This matches the exchange declared above
   type => "actions"
   metadata_enabled => true
  }
}
output {
  elasticsearch {
    hosts => "elasticsearch:9200"
  }
  stdout { codec => rubydebug  }
}

> logstash-plugin list --verbose logstash-input-rabbitmq
logstash-input-rabbitmq (4.0.1)

@MagicMicky @metadata is only available in the runtime of the pipeline and will not be persisted to outputs. You will have to explicitly copy them to another field, if you need them in Kibana/stdout
