This image is officially deprecated in favor of the elasticsearch image provided by elastic.co which is available to pull via docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:[version] like 5.2.1. This image will receive no further updates after 2017-06-20 (June 20, 2017). Please adjust your usage accordingly.
Elastic provides open-source support for Elasticsearch via the elastic/elasticsearch GitHub repository and the Docker image via the elastic/elasticsearch-docker GitHub repository, as well as community support via its forums.
This is the Git repo of the Docker Hub image for Elasticsearch. See the Docker Hub page for the full readme on how to use this Docker image and for information regarding contributing and issues. The Docker Hub image is not prepared in collaboration with nor supported by upstream Elastic which provides its own official image.
The full readme is generated over in docker-library/docs, specifically in docker-library/docs/elasticsearch.
See a change merged here that doesn't show up on the Docker Hub yet? Check the "library/elasticsearch" manifest file in the docker-library/official-images repo, especially PRs with the "library/elasticsearch" label on that repo. For more information about the official images process, see the docker-library/official-images readme.
