Between versions
1.0.4
and1.0.5
, this commit was added andthe default codec began to be respected. This results in json messages
being treated as
plain
, which wraps the consumed json event in the event'smessage
field, and elasticsearch doesn't properly parse the event into fields.This commit changes the default type to
json
, as that is the assumed default format anyway. Alternate codecs can be used by adding a codec attribute to the input plugin's configuration.
