- Fix Log4j warnings by setting up the logger (#62)
- Use jar dependencies
- Fixed snappy compression issue
- Internal: Update gemspec dependency
- Depend on logstash-core-plugin-api instead of logstash-core, removing the need to mass update plugins on major releases of logstash
- [Internal] Pin jruby-kafka to v1.6 to match input
- New dependency requirements for logstash-core for the 5.0 release
- Note: breaking changes in this version, and not backward compatible with Kafka 0.8 broker. Please read carefully before installing
- Breaking: Changed default codec from json to plain. Json codec is really slow when used with inputs because inputs by default are single threaded. This makes it a bad first user experience. Plain codec is a much better default.
- Moved internal APIs to use Kafka's Java API directly instead of jruby-kafka. This makes it consistent with logstash-input-kafka
- Breaking: Change in configuration options
- Added SSL options so you can connect securely to a 0.9 Kafka broker
- [Internal] Pin jruby-kafka to v1.5
- Plugins were updated to follow the new shutdown semantic, this mainly allows Logstash to instruct input plugins to terminate gracefully, instead of using Thread.raise on the plugins' threads. Ref: elastic/logstash#3895
- Dependency on logstash-core update to 2.0
- Change to 0.8.2 version of Kafka producer. This will unfortunately break existing configuration, but has a lot of enhancements and fixes.
