Forked from sean-m/log-reader-config.ps1. I changed the script so that logstash-forwarder is started as a process and the json event messages are pushed to the stdin of logstash-forwarder. I don't know how this will be affected by network connectivity, but it means I don't need to worry about a log file on the C: drive growing ever larger.
