Research direction
Review the existing third party plugin at https://github.com/MrCoffey/logstash input nats and the forum discussion at https://discuss.elastic.co/t/nats io official support as a move towards distributed system/41727 to understand requirements. Examine Logstash input plugin documentation and code structure to design an official plugin. The issue lacks specific acceptance criteria; consider asking maintainers for desired configuration and testing approach.
