Field renaming

[ayashjorden]

Hello, First, this gem is awesome! we're using it in production for a long time :)

I'm looking for a way to rename fields (avoid doing it in logstash, getting faster event flow to ES). One way is:

  FIELD_RENAMING = {
    'ip'     => 'true_ip',
    'path'   => 'request',
    'status' => 'response'
  }
..... some other code .....

    def self.log_event(event)
      if !event.is_a?(LogStash::Event)
        event = LogStash::Event.new(event)
      end
      FIELD_RENAMING.each do |old_name, new_name|
        if event.fields.key?(old_name)
          event.fields[new_name] = event.fields.delete(old_name)
        end
      end
      event[TYPE_STR] ||= :'rails-event'
      self.logger << NEWLINE_STR % event.to_json
      event
    end

But this doesn't wire to all of the events that the gem subscribes to.

Any other options?

Thank you, Yarden
