Getting Started

$ docker run --init -d --name elasticsearch -p 9200:9200 blacktop/elasticsearch
$ docker run --init -d --name kibana --link elasticsearch -p 5601:5601 blacktop/kibana

Documentation

Customize at runtime via environment variables

There are two types of env vars:

• KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_URL=http://localhost:9200
• elasticsearch.url=http://localhost:9200

To use your own elasticsearch address via KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_URL

$ docker run --init -d --name kibana -e KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_URL=http://some-elasticsearch:9200 -p 5601:5601 blacktop/kibana

For elasticsearch running on a OSX host it would be

$ docker run --init -d --name kibana \
  -p 5601:5601 \
  --net host \
  -e KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_URL="http://$(ipconfig getifaddr en0):9200" \
  blacktop/kibana

For x-pack with basic auth:

$ docker run --init -d --name kibana \
             --restart unless-stopped \
             -p 443:5601 \
             -v /etc/letsencrypt/archive/demo.malice.io:/certs \
             -e KIBANA_SERVER_SSL_ENABLED=true \
             -e KIBANA_SERVER_SSL_KEY=/certs/privkey1.pem \
             -e KIBANA_SERVER_SSL_CERTIFICATE=/certs/cert1.pem \
             -e KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_URL=$KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_URL \
             -e KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_USERNAME=$KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_USERNAME \
             -e KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD=$KIBANA_ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD \
             --log-opt max-size=100m \
             --log-opt max-file=3 \
             blacktop/kibana:x-pack
