Logstash redis configuration not pushing logs to ES - elasticsearch

Question

We are using ELK stack to monitor our logs. I am total newbie to ELK environment, recently i was working on a task where I need to configure Logstash with Redis to push our logs to,
below is the config i am using, the below config works with ElasticSearch but does not work with Redis,
input {
file {
path => "E:/Logs/**/*.log"
start_position => beginning
codec => json
}
}
filter {
date {
match => [ "TimeCreated", "YYYY-MM-dd HH:mm:ss Z" ]
}
mutate {
add_field => {
#"debug" => "true"
"index_prefix" => "logstash-app"
}
}
}
output {
#elasticsearch {
#local env
#hosts => ["localhost:9200"]
#preprod env
#hosts => ["elk.logs.abc.corp.com:9200"]
#prod env
#hosts => ["elk.logs.abc.prod.com:9200"]
#index => "logstash-app"
#}
redis {
#local env
#host => "localhost:5300"
#preprod env
host => "redis.logs.abc.corp.com"
#prod env
#host => "redis.logs.abc.prod.com"
data_type => "list"
key => "logstash"
}
if[debug] == "true" {
stdout {
codec => rubydebug
}
file {
path => "../data/logstash-app-%{+YYYYMMdd}.log"
}
}
}
I commented the Elasticsearch, with Elastic Search i am able to view the logs in Kibana but with Redis i am unable to see,
Can anyone point me what wrong i am doing ? how could i debug or see if my logs are shipped correctly

Answer 1

Based on the documentation of logstash plugin:
host should be an array
redis {
#preprod env
host => ["redis.logs.abc.corp.com"]
data_type => "list"
key => "logstash"
}
