puppet-logstash

A puppet module for managing and configuring Logstash

This module is puppet 3 tested

Usage

Installation, make sure service is running and will be started at boot time:

 class { 'logstash': }

Removal/decommissioning:

 class { 'logstash':
   ensure => 'absent',
 }

Install everything but disable service(s) afterwards:

 class { 'logstash':
   status => 'disabled',
 }

Installation with a JAR file:

 class { 'logstash':
   provider => 'custom',
   jarfile  => 'puppet:///path/to/jarfile'
 }

When no init script is provided when using custom provider, built in init script will be placed. You can however supply your own init script and defaults file.

 class { 'logstash':
   provider     => 'custom',
   jarfile      => 'puppet:///path/to/jarfile',
   initfile     => 'puppet:///path/to/initfile',
   defaultsfile => 'puppet:///path/to/defaultsfile'
 }

When you want to use an other service manager like 'runit' or 'daemontools':

 class { 'logstash':
   provider => 'custom',
   status   => 'unmanaged'
 }

Plugins

Every plugin in Logstash has its own define file.
