Contributing to Loki Logstash Output Plugin

For information about how to use this plugin see this documentation.

Install dependencies

First, make sure you have JDK version 8 or 11 installed and you have set the JAVA_HOME environment variable.

You need to setup JRuby environment to build this plugin. Refer https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv for setting up your rbenv environment.

After setting up rbenv. Install JRuby

rbenv install jruby-9.2.10.0
rbenv local jruby-9.2.10.0

Check that the environment is configured

ruby --version
jruby 9.2.10

You should make sure you are running jruby and not ruby. If the command ruby --version still shows ruby and not jruby, check that PATH contains $HOME/.rbenv/shims and $HOME/.rbenv/bin. Also verify that you have this in your bash profile:

export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"
eval "$(rbenv init -)"

Then install bundler:

gem install bundler:2.1.4

Follow those instructions to install logstash before moving to the next section.
