amazon_es output plugin installation error on an ec2 instance?

Question

I am trying to install this plugin on my amazon Linux AMI EC2 instance. Normal installation using bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-output-amazon_es gives me error :

Error Bundler::InstallError, retrying 1/10 An error occurred while installing faraday_middleware (0.10.0), and Bundler cannot continue. Make sure that gem install faraday_middleware -v '0.10.0' succeeds before bundling

So I tried cloning the repository and build the plugin using gem build logstash-output-amazon_es.gemspec. This succeeded :

sudo bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-output-amazon_es-0.3.gem

Validating logstash-output-amazon_es-0.3.gem
Installing logstash-output-amazon_es
Installation successful

But when I do a configtest on my logstash configuration file, it throws me an error :

The given configuration is invalid. Reason: Couldn't find any output plugin named 'amazon_es'. Are you sure this is correct? Trying to load the amazon_es output plugin resulted in this error: no such file to load -- logstash/outputs/amazon_es {:level=>:fatal}

What am I doing wrong here?

cd /usr/share/logstash sudo bin/logstash-plugin install logstash-output-amazon_es
