title: How to configure native python logging library with logstash and elastic?
body: <p>I'm new to the ELK stack and am trying to learn how to configure the native python logging function to update my Elastic DB with the help of LogStash. The resources I've found haven't been too clear to me, and I was wondering if anyone on here could help me with the basic steps. Am I on the right track in starting with these couple steps?</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Setup of Config File for LogStash</li>
  <li>Retrieve a 'logger' [logging.getLogger()] and add a Logstash Handler to it where the host is the Elastic DB URL?</li>
  <li>Next steps?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.</p>
