I'm trying to forward kubernetes-event logs to elasticsearch using fluentd.I currently use fluent/fluentd-kubernetes-daemonset:v1.10.1-debian-elasticsearch7-1.0as container image to forward my application logs to elasticsearch cluster.I've searched enough & my problem is that this image doesn't have enough documentation as to accomplishing this task(i.e; forward kubernetes event related logs).

I've found this plugin from splunk which has desired output but this has overhead like :

• add above plugin's gem to bundler.

• install essential tools like make etc.

• install the plugin .

Sure I can do above steps using init-container, but above operations are adding ~200MB to disk space .I'd like to know if it can be accomplished with smaller footprint or other way.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
