Artifacts generated from ECS

Various kinds of files or programs can be generated directly based on ECS.

In this directory, you'll find the following:

  • beats/fields.ecs.yml: The YAML field definition file used by Beats to import ECS in it's broader field schema. This might also be useful to community Beats maintainers.

  • csv/fields.csv: A csv file you can use to import ECS field definitions in a spreadsheet. GitHub's csv rendering lets you filter the fields, too.

  • ecs/*.yml: These are the files to use when you need to consume ECS programmatically. The code generating the other ECS artifacts all operate on one of these two representations (documentation, csv, Elasticsearch template, etc). The two files are the fully fleshed out representation of ECS: default values are filled in, all fields being reused elsewhere are made explicit, additional attributes are computed.

  • elasticsearch/: Reference Elasticsearch component templates and a sample legacy all-in-one template to get started using ECS. Check out how to use them in elasticsearch/README.md. Note that you can customize the content of these templates by following the instructions in USAGE.md

If you'd like to share your own generator with the ECS community, you're welcome to look at our contribution guidelines, and then at the generators in scripts/generators.
