## Description

The json_indexing processor is used to consume pure JSON documents in queues and store them to a specified Elasticsearch server.

## Configuration Example

A simple example is as follows:

```
pipeline:
- name: request_logging_index
  auto_start: true
  keep_running: true
  processor:
    - json_indexing:
        index_name: "gateway_requests"
        elasticsearch: "dev"
        input_queue: "request_logging"
        idle_timeout_in_seconds: 1
        worker_size: 1
        bulk_size_in_mb: 10
```
