DEPRECATED

This image has been deprecated in favor of the official kibana image provided and maintained by elastic.co. The upstream images are available to pull via docker.elastic.co/kibana/kibana:[version] like 5.4.2. The images found here will receive no further updates once the 5.6.0 release is available upstream. Please adjust your usage accordingly.

Elastic provides open-source support for Kibana via the elastic/kibana GitHub repository and the Docker image via the elastic/kibana-docker GitHub repository, as well as community support via its forums.

How to use this image

You can run the default kibana command simply:

$ docker run --link some-elasticsearch:elasticsearch -d kibana

You can also pass in additional flags to kibana:

$ docker run --link some-elasticsearch:elasticsearch -d kibana --plugins /somewhere/else

This image includes EXPOSE 5601 (default port). If you'd like to be able to access the instance from the host without the container's IP, standard port mappings can be used:

$ docker run --name some-kibana --link some-elasticsearch:elasticsearch -p 5601:5601 -d kibana

You can also provide the address of elasticsearch via ELASTICSEARCH_URL environnement variable:

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

Then, access it via http://localhost:5601 or http://host-ip:5601 in a browser.

Example stack.yml for kibana:

version: '3.1'

services:

    kibana:
        image: kibana
        ports:
            - 5601:5601

    elasticsearch:
        image: elasticsearch

Try in PWD

Run docker stack deploy -c stack.yml kibana (or docker-compose -f stack.yml up), wait for it to initialize completely, and visit http://swarm-ip:5601, http://localhost:5601, or http://host-ip:5601 (as appropriate).
