We are currently using a lot of different logstash config files for several sources, and keeping tracking of the configs in a modular manner is not easily possible. Are there any plans on adding some sort of 'include functionality' to logstash.

For example:

A.conf :

filter {
  .... # do stuff A
}

B.conf :

filter {
  .... # do stuff B
}

In the actual config file We would use something like:

run.conf :

input { ... }

include('B')
include('C')

output { ... }

We are currently using symlinks and whole directories as config source as a workaround, but running into different problems here.
