Logstash is an open-source data processing pipeline that ingests data from various sources, transforms it, and sends the data to the desired output destination. In this tutorial, we will go through a step-by-step guide on how to install Logstash on EndeavourOS Latest.
Logstash requires Java to be installed on your system. To check if Java is already installed on your system, open a terminal and enter the following command.
java -version
If you do not have Java installed, download and install the latest JDK package using the following command.
sudo pacman -S jdk-openjdk
Visit the official Logstash download page and download the latest stable version of Logstash. Alternatively, you can use the following command to download the package.
wget https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/logstash/logstash-7.14.1.tar.gz
Once the download is complete, navigate to the downloaded package directory and extract the contents using the following command.
tar -xzvf logstash-7.14.1.tar.gz
After extraction, move the extracted directory to the /usr/share directory using the following command.
sudo mv logstash-7.14.1 /usr/share/logstash
Open the Logstash configuration file logstash.yml in a text editor with sudo privileges.
sudo nano /usr/share/logstash/config/logstash.yml
Uncomment the following lines and modify them as per your requirements.
# ------------ General --------------

#
http.host: "127.0.0.1"
http.port: 9600-9700
path.config: /etc/logstash/conf.d/*.conf
Start the Logstash service by running the following command.
sudo /usr/share/logstash/bin/logstash -f /etc/logstash/conf.d
You have successfully installed Logstash on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now configure it to work with your data sources, transform your data, and send it to your desired output location.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
