ElasticView

ElasticView is a simple web application which allows to view and edit Elasticsearch indexes/types as tables

How to build

With installed JDK and Gradle just run:

gradle jar

Also you can download ElasticViewApp.jar from releases

How to run

Just run:

java -jar ElasticViewApp.jar

You must have file elasticview.conf in the same folder with jar. Use elasticview.conf.example as example of configuration.

How to use access control

It is possible to limit view/edit access to different indexes/type for different users. You must set "accessControl" to true in elasticview.conf and add users/groups into .elasticview index. See file [elasticview.data.example] (https://github.com/enp/ElasticViewApp/blob/master/elasticview.data.example) as example which contains:

example index connections
example group connections with permission to edit and sort only one filed
example user janedoe in this group
example user johndoe with full access

Import this file into Elasticsearch before running ElasticView with:

curl -XPOST 127.0.0.1:9200/_bulk --data-binary @elasticview.data.example

NOTE: access control implementation very simple: it uses basic http authentication and plain text passwords in .elasticview index.
