Add Logstash (optional) to Echelon

[portertech]

Make Logstash an optional component of Echelon.

Still a WIP, wanting to get early feedback ;)

I was going to ask what uses PHP, but realised, obviously, Kibana... hehe!

Very cool stuff man; I had some similar work in a client repository but this most certainly supersedes it -- I'll give it a run this weekend.

Awesome, I intend to update the Vagrantfile, roles, and readme tomorrow.

Going to be giving a Vancouver Polyglot talk on application/infrastructure monitoring, using Echelon for examples/demo.

Looks like the Logstash cookbook needs some Chef solo love. Attempting to give it.

Any updates?

At the very least this needs to pull in the latest version of the logstash cookbook as kibana depends on git and it isn't getting run via chef-solo since it ignores metadata.rb

This seems like a recurring issue. Seems like @webframp had the right idea with https://github.com/heavywater/echelon/tree/berks

Is in ruby now (for integration with logstash), this means we can go that route and drop PHP
