Add log-run mode that submits given files to Logstash and prints the results. #78

Open cresh opened 4 years ago

cresh commented 4 years ago

Log-run mode is useful if you want to pass example log files through your filter and take a look at the result. Log-run mode makes this easy by using your test configuration so that you do not have to modify your pipeline configuration or maintain a development pipeline configuration.

The command-line argument --logfile=LOGFILE enables log-run mode and passes LOGFILE to Logstash and prints the result of your pipeline to stdout. You can provide command-line argument --logfile LOGFILE multiple times. If LOGFILE is a directory, log-run mode finds all the log files that match --logfile-extension below the given directory and processes them (default logfile extension is log).
