editFor questions about the plugin, open a topic in the Discuss forums. For bugs or feature requests, open an issue in Github. For the list of Elastic supported plugins, please consult the Elastic Support Matrix.
Description
editThis output will send events to a Redis queue using RPUSH. The RPUSH command is supported in Redis v0.0.7+. Using PUBLISH to a channel requires at least v1.3.8+. While you may be able to make these Redis versions work, the best performance and stability will be found in more recent stable versions. Versions 2.6.0+ are recommended.
For more information, see the Redis homepage

batch
edit- Value type is boolean
-
Default value is
false
Set to true if you want Redis to batch up values and send 1 RPUSH command
instead of one command per value to push on the list. Note that this only
works with data_type="list"
mode right now.
If true, we send an RPUSH every "batch_events" events or
"batch_timeout" seconds (whichever comes first).
Only supported for data_type
is "list".
batch_events
edit- Value type is number
-
Default value is
50
If batch is set to true, the number of events we queue up for an RPUSH.
batch_timeout
edit- Value type is number
-
Default value is
5
If batch is set to true, the maximum amount of time between RPUSH commands when there are pending events to flush.
congestion_interval
edit- Value type is number
-
Default value is
1
How often to check for congestion. Default is one second. Zero means to check on every event.
congestion_threshold
edit- Value type is number
-
Default value is
0
In case Redis data_type
is list
and has more than @congestion_threshold
items,
block until someone consumes them and reduces congestion, otherwise if there are
no consumers Redis will run out of memory, unless it was configured with OOM protection.
But even with OOM protection, a single Redis list can block all other users of Redis,
until Redis CPU consumption reaches the max allowed RAM size.
A default value of 0 means that this limit is disabled.
Only supported for list
Redis data_type
.
data_type
edit-
Value can be any of:
list
,channel
- There is no default value for this setting.
Either list or channel. If data_type
is list, then we will set
RPUSH to key. If data_type
is channel, then we will PUBLISH to key
.
host
edit- Value type is array
-
Default value is
["127.0.0.1"]
The hostname(s) of your Redis server(s). Ports may be specified on any hostname, which will override the global port config. If the hosts list is an array, Logstash will pick one random host to connect to, if that host is disconnected it will then pick another.
For example:
"127.0.0.1" ["127.0.0.1", "127.0.0.2"] ["127.0.0.1:6380", "127.0.0.1"]
key
edit- Value type is string
- There is no default value for this setting.
The name of a Redis list or channel. Dynamic names are
valid here, for example logstash-%{type}
.
password
edit- Value type is password
- There is no default value for this setting.
Password to authenticate with. There is no authentication by default.
port
edit- Value type is number
-
Default value is
6379
The default port to connect on. Can be overridden on any hostname.
reconnect_interval
edit- Value type is number
-
Default value is
1
Interval for reconnecting to failed Redis connections
shuffle_hosts
edit- Value type is boolean
-
Default value is
true
Shuffle the host list during Logstash startup.
ssl_certificate
edit- Value type is path
- There is no default value for this setting.
Path to certificate in PEM format. This certificate will be presented to the other part of the TLS connection.
ssl_certificate_authorities
edit- Value type is array
-
Default value is
[]
Validate the certificate chain against these authorities. You can define multiple files. All the certificates will be read and added to the trust store. The system CA path is automatically included.
ssl_cipher_suites
edit- Value type is a list of string
- There is no default value for this setting
The list of cipher suites to use, listed by priorities. Supported cipher suites vary depending on the Java and protocol versions.
ssl_enabled
edit- Value type is boolean
-
Default value is
false
Enable SSL (must be set for other ssl_
options to take effect).
ssl_supported_protocols
edit- Value type is string
-
Allowed values are:
'TLSv1.1'
,'TLSv1.2'
,'TLSv1.3'
-
Default depends on the JDK being used. With up-to-date Logstash, the default is
['TLSv1.2', 'TLSv1.3']
.'TLSv1.1'
is not considered secure and is only provided for legacy applications.
List of allowed SSL/TLS versions to use when establishing a secure connection.
If you configure the plugin to use 'TLSv1.1'
on any recent JVM, such as the one packaged with Logstash,
the protocol is disabled by default and needs to be enabled manually by changing jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms
in
the $JDK_HOME/conf/security/java.security configuration file. That is, TLSv1.1
needs to be removed from the list.
ssl_verification_mode
edit-
Value can be any of:
full
,none
-
Default value is
full
Defines how to verify the certificates presented by another part in the TLS connection:
full
validates that the server certificate has an issue date that’s within
the not_before and not_after dates; chains to a trusted Certificate Authority (CA), and
has a hostname or IP address that matches the names within the certificate.
none
performs no certificate validation.
Common options
editThese configuration options are supported by all output plugins:
Setting | Input type | Required |
---|---|---|
No |
||
No |
enable_metric
edit- Value type is boolean
-
Default value is
true
Disable or enable metric logging for this specific plugin instance. By default we record all the metrics we can, but you can disable metrics collection for a specific plugin.
id
edit- Value type is string
- There is no default value for this setting.
Add a unique ID
to the plugin configuration. If no ID is specified, Logstash will generate one.
It is strongly recommended to set this ID in your configuration. This is particularly useful
when you have two or more plugins of the same type. For example, if you have 2 redis outputs.
Adding a named ID in this case will help in monitoring Logstash when using the monitoring APIs.
output { redis { id => "my_plugin_id" } }
