## Documentation ##

Stop a LogStash agent from a LogStash configuration file.

This plugin is usefull for testing or batch.

No configuration is required. The default exit code is 0 (normal exit).

A pause could be add in order LogStash may flushes its last outputs.

To stop a LogStash agent, one option would be to put a line at the end of the log such as:

END FILE

You can then use the exit plugin which is executed by LogStash when it hits that line.

The exit-example.conf configuration file provides an example.

Here an overview:

```

exit {

  pause_second => 10

  exit_code => 99

}

```
