Logstash grok pattern to filter custom Log message

I am new to logstash and I want to filter fileds from log message. Here is log message:

[2015-03-16 13:12:05,130]  INFO - LogMediator ServiceName = TestService_v1,SystemDate = 3/16/15 1:12 PM,ServerIP = 127.0.1.1,ServerHost = Inspiron-3521,SequenceName = Validation,Message = Going to Validate Request ,MessageCode = null,ErrorMessage = null,ErrorDetail = null,ErrorException = null

From above log message I want to extract all fields, like ServiceName, SystemDate, SequenceName etc. What will be the grok pattern or Regex for this log message?

Any help would be appreciated.

you could first split your message in three parts (timestamp, loglevel and the remainding logdata) using:

\[%{TIMESTAMP_ISO8601:timestamp}\]\s+%{WORD:loglevel}\s+-\s+%{GREEDYDATA:logData}

You could then apply the csv filter to the logdata field like so:

csv {
  columns => ["serviceName","systemDate","serverIP","serverHost","sequenceName","message","messageCode","errorMessage","errorDetail","errorException"]
  separator => ","
}

This will split your logData after each , So you would get a new field named message containing the text "Message = Going to Validate Request" You could now edit the individual fields for instance you could extract the actual message using the following grok filter:

Message = %{GREEDYDATA:messageText}

I've found it very helpful to use the grok debugger to work out the individual grok patterns: http://grokdebug.herokuapp.com/
