[Feature]: filebeat inputs #393

@afeefghannam89

Description

@afeefghannam89

Currently, the Filebeat role requires adjustments whenever a new input is added. I suggest leaving the configuration of Filebeat inputs to the user instead.

This would make the role more dynamic and flexible:

  • Users can define their own key:value pairs directly in the configuration file.

  • They take responsibility for the correctness of the content.

  • We avoid the overhead of maintaining Jinja code for ~33 different Filebeat inputs.

  • It also reduces the need to modify the template every time a new input type is requested.

I don’t yet have a 100% concrete idea of what the final template should look like, but the approach should be feasible.

What do you think @widhalmt
