Default value is "UTF-8"

The character encoding used in this input. Examples include UTF-8 and cp1252

This setting is useful if your log files are in Latin-1 (aka cp1252) or in another character set other than UTF-8.

This only affects "plain" format logs since json is UTF-8 already.

`delimiter`

edit

Value type is string
Default value is "\n"

Change the delimiter that separates lines

`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.

`format`

edit

Value type is string
There is no default value for this setting.

Set the desired text format for encoding.

`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 grok filters. Adding a named ID in this case will help in monitoring Logstash when using the monitoring APIs.

 stdout {
   id => "my_plugin_id"
