Redis
Ship Redis Application logs to Logstash
Step 1 - Install Filebeat
deb (Debian/Ubuntu/Mint)
curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats//-oss-7.15.1-amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i -oss-7.15.1-amd64.deb
rpm (CentOS/RHEL/Fedora)
curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats//-oss-7.15.1-x86_64.rpm
sudo rpm -vi -oss-7.15.1-x86_64.rpm
macOS
curl -L -O https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats//-oss-7.15.1-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz
tar xzvf -oss-7.15.1-darwin-x86_64.tar.gz
Windows
- Download and extract the Windows zip file.
- Rename the
-<version>-windows
directory to ``. - Open a PowerShell prompt as an Administrator.
- Run the following to install as a Windows service:
.\install-service-.ps1
PowerShell.exe -ExecutionPolicy UnRestricted -File .\install-service-.ps1
.
Step 2 - Enable the Redis Module
There are several built in filebeat modules you can use. You will need to enable the redis module.
deb/rpm
sudo filebeat modules list
sudo filebeat modules enable redis
macOS
cd <EXTRACTED_ARCHIVE>
./filebeat modules list
./filebeat modules enable redis
Windows
cd <EXTRACTED_ARCHIVE>
.\filebeat.exe modules list
.\filebeat.exe modules enable redis
Additional module configuration can be done using the per module config files located in the modules.d folder, most commonly this would be to read logs from a non-default location
deb/rpm /etc/filebeat/modules.d/
mac/win <EXTRACTED_ARCHIVE>/modules.d/
- module: redis
# Main logs
log:
enabled: true
# Set custom paths for the log files. If left empty,
# Filebeat will choose the paths depending on your OS.
#var.paths: ["/var/log/redis/redis-server.log*"]
# Slow logs, retrieved via the Redis API (SLOWLOG)
slowlog:
enabled: true
# The Redis hosts to connect to.
#var.hosts: ["localhost:6379"]
# Optional, the password to use when connecting to Redis.
#var.password:
Step 3 - Copy configuration File
The configuration file below is pre-configured to send data to your Logit.io Stack via Logstash.
Copy the configuration file below and overwrite the contents of filebeat.yml.
# ============================== Filebeat modules ==============================
filebeat.config.modules:
# Glob pattern for configuration loading
path: ${path.config}/modules.d/*.yml
# Set to true to enable config reloading
reload.enabled: false
# Period on which files under path should be checked for changes
#reload.period: 10s
# ======================= Elasticsearch template setting =======================
setup.template.settings:
index.number_of_shards: 1
#index.codec: best_compression
#_source.enabled: false
# ================================== Outputs ===================================
# ------------------------------ Logstash Output -------------------------------
<div class="sw-warning">
<b>No input available! </b> Your stack is missing the required input for this data source <a href="#" onclick="Intercom('showNewMessage')" class="btn btn-info btn-sm">Talk to support to add the input</a>
</div>
Step 4 - Start Filebeat
Ok, time to start ingesting data!
deb/rpm
sudo systemctl enable filebeat
sudo systemctl start filebeat
macOS
./filebeat
Windows
PS C:\Program Files\Filebeat> Start-Service filebeat
