filebeat输出结果到elasticsearch的多个索引

基本环境：

filebeat版本：6.5.4 (Linux,x86-64)

elasticsearch版本：6.54

 

（一）需求说明

在一台服务器上有多个日志需要使用filebeat日志收集到elasticsearch中，以便于查看。对于收集方法，主要有2种：

• 将同一台服务器上的日志收集到elasticsearch的同一个索引中，这种方式存在一个较大的问题，如果服务器上有多个业务在运行，产生了多个日志，那么将会被收集到elasticsearch的同一个索引中，如图1。
• 将同一台服务器上的日志收集到elasticsearch的不同索引中，每个索引都存放相关业务的日志，如图2。

 

 

很明显，图2的日志输出是我们想要的，因为它将不同的日志放到了不同的索引中。

 

（二）解决方案

在使用filbeat收集日志输出到elasticsearch数据库时，可以使用indices参数来配置不同的日志输出到不同的索引中，官方文档及其配置例子如下：

 

 

（三）实际测试

（3.1）输入存在fields_under_root: true选项

使用filebeat对3个日志testa.log、testb.log、testc.log进行数据抓取，要求：

• testa.log日志的数据存放到testa-log索引中
• testb.log日志的数据存放到testb-log索引中
• 其它(非testa.log和testb.log)的日志数据存放到test-other-log索引中

 

filebeat输入配置如下：

 

输出配置如下：

 

 

最终测试成功。

###################### Filebeat Configuration Example #########################

# This file is an example configuration file highlighting only the most common
# options. The filebeat.reference.yml file from the same directory contains all the
# supported options with more comments. You can use it as a reference.
#
# You can find the full configuration reference here:
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/filebeat/index.html

# For more available modules and options, please see the filebeat.reference.yml sample
# configuration file.

#=========================== Filebeat inputs =============================

filebeat.inputs:

# Each - is an input. Most options can be set at the input level, so
# you can use different inputs for various configurations.
# Below are the input specific configurations.

# testa.log
- type: log
  enabled: true
  paths:
    - /root/test/testa.log
  fields:
    log_topics: "testa"
  fields_under_root: true

  # Include lines. A list of regular expressions to match. It exports the lines that are
  # matching any regular expression from the list.
  #include_lines: ['^ERR', '^WARN']

  # Exclude files. A list of regular expressions to match. Filebeat drops the files that
  # are matching any regular expression from the list. By default, no files are dropped.
  #exclude_files: ['.gz$']

  # Optional additional fields. These fields can be freely picked
  # to add additional information to the crawled log files for filtering
  #fields:
  #  level: debug
  #  review: 1

  ### Multiline options

  # Multiline can be used for log messages spanning multiple lines. This is common
  # for Java Stack Traces or C-Line Continuation

  # The regexp Pattern that has to be matched. The example pattern matches all lines starting with [
  #multiline.pattern: ^\[

  # Defines if the pattern set under pattern should be negated or not. Default is false.
  #multiline.negate: false

  # Match can be set to "after" or "before". It is used to define if lines should be append to a pattern
  # that was (not) matched before or after or as long as a pattern is not matched based on negate.
  # Note: After is the equivalent to previous and before is the equivalent to to next in Logstash
  #multiline.match: after


#============================= Filebeat modules ===============================

 其它说明：为什么需要特别注意fields_under_root参数

fields_under_root参数定义如下：

• 如果值为ture，那么fields存储在输出文档的顶级位置，如果与filebeat中字段冲突，自定义字段会覆盖其他字段
• 如果值为false或者未设置，那么fields存储在输出文档的子位置。

如下：

（1）fields_under_root：true

此时在filebeat的input部分定义的字段log_topics是一个顶级字段。

 

 

 

 

（2）fields_under_root：false或者未设置

此时在filebeat的input部分定义的字段log_topics是fields字段的子字段。
