Kibana 4.3+
Installation steps
- Download and unpack Kibana.
- From the Kibana root directory, install the plugin with the following command:
$ bin/kibana plugin -i tagcloud -u https://github.com/stormpython/tagcloud/archive/master.zip
Install from local file (has to be a tar.gz file)
$ bin/kibana plugin -i tagcloud --url file:///path_to_file/tagcloud.tar.gz
Disclosure
This repo is in its early stages. There is an outstanding bug that needs to be fixed. In addition, please note d3-cloud's warning regarding how word clouds are rendered.
Note: if a word cannot be placed in any of the positions attempted along the spiral, it is not included in the final word layout. This may be addressed in a future release.
