json file and elasticsearch

[ufo56]

Hi

Im exploring elasticsearch and kibana and found out this excellent parser when i was looking around in github.

It would be nice import facebook messages to elasticsearch and draw a nice graphs and stats about conversations, maybe :P

One big problem is elastic does not like this kind json formating what this script makes..
Is there any simple way to make this work or it's not so easy ? I was just thinking it would be nice dataset to play around. If my idea is stupid then just ignore me :D

I tried to import and modify fb parser json using this sample data as example but did not get any great success.

Hi there! That's a good idea! I'm not familiar with elasticsearch really, but it shouldn't be too difficult to add another output format. However, looking at the documentation you sent, shouldn't it just be a matter of writing a mapping?
