Elasticsearch 1.5.2 + Kibana 4.0.2 in a docker container for a fast throwaway environment.
Use this if you don't care about Elasticsearch data persisting across container destroy/restart/etc.
docker pull devdb/kibana:latest
docker run -d --name kibana -p 5601:5601 -p 9200:9200 devdb/kibana
You can create an index and mappings using:
curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/twitter
curl -XPUT http://localhost:9200/twitter/_mapping/tweet -d '{
"tweet" : {
"properties": {
"text": { "type": "string" },
"user_id": { "type": "string", "index": "not_analyzed" }
}
}
}'
Then, you can point your browser to http://localhost:5601 and the Kibana4 dashboard will come up.
Warning: The data in Elasticsearch is lost when the container is destroyed. If you want the data to persist, then use:
docker pull devdb/kibana:latest
docker run -d --name kibana -p 5601:5601 -v /tmp/kibana:/opt/elasticsearch/data devdb/kibana
where /tmp/kibana is where the data files are stored on your host machine.
