You can help!

This site is open to anyone wanting to share tricks, configurations, and production experience with logstash.

In general, every page here is a single page written in markdown. Articles format themselves using javascript, so you don't have to worry much about that. You get a table of contents for free for any headers.

Simple Markdown

You might also find these links useful for markdown references:

• markdown syntax
• github-flavored markdown

Including Files

You can include files by putting {% include_code the_file_name %} on a line by itself. It will look like this:

{% include_code recipes/example/example.txt %}

Embedding HTML

Since this is just markdown, you can embed html by putting blank lines around the start and end.

Full Example
