Logstash refusing to start or listen to elastic search

I have setup Logstash and Elastic Search using Homebrew. Logstash takes forever to get connected or to start up. This is the way I start up Logstash (added the protocol from another answer on SO)

logstash -e 'input { udp {port => 5228 codec => json_lines}} output {elasticsearch { host => localhostprotocol => "http"} stdout {codec => rubydebug }}'

I start ES with just elasticsearch and the output I get on Logstash terminal is:

Using milestone 2 input plugin 'udp'. This plugin should be stable, but if you see strange behavior, please let us know! For more information on plugin milestones, see http://logstash.net/docs/1.4.2/plugin-milestones {:level=>:warn}

Nothing ever changes, nor does it get started. I should be receiving a connection added to elastic search but this is what I see on ES windwow:

Where should I start debugging from? I have tried some suggestions on SO but nothing seems to so as much give me an error, from where I could proceed.

It looks as if you've got a typo there, you need a space between localhost and protocol. However, I'd advise also adding the port as below:

output {
    elasticsearch { host => "localhost" protocol => "http" port =>"9200"} 
    stdout {codec => rubydebug }
}
