Use this as baseline for your docker-compose files.
In the folder elastic-v2 you will find the setup for Elasticsearch 2.4.6 and Kibana 4.6.6.
Find the Open Source only docker-compose file in elastic-v5-oss.
In the folder elastic-latest you find the recent version of Elasticsearch and Kibana.
Change the settings and version number in the .env file.
If you have a running local Elasticsearch instance just start Kibana with Docker.
Replace the Kibana version number with the Elasticsearch version you need.
$ cd kibana-only
$ docker-compose up -dKibana should connect with your local elasticsearch instance. It does not use any X-Pack related security.
