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

docker-kibana-alpine's Issues

Please add 7.9.0

It seems that image for 7.9.0 is still missing. blacktop/elasticsearch:7.9.0 does exists.

Thank you.

Kibana 7.9.3 is not working

Hello,

after upgrading to 7.9.3, I am getting:

Kibana does not support the current Node.js v10.22.0. Please use Node.js v10.22.1.

Could you please upgrade the image? Currently I can not use 7.10 image.

5.1 tag uses 5.2

the 5.1 folder has a dockerfile referencing kibana 5.2
Kibana requires its version number to match with elasticsearch.
I'd recommend creating a 5.2 tag, and supplying a patch tag for the 5.1 folder.

Kibana 6.8: Kibana does not support the current Node.js version v10.15.2

Hi.

Got this error when tried to use Kibana 6.8: Kibana does not support the current Node.js version v10.15.2. Please use Node.js v10.19.0.

So the solution would be to use FROM node:10.19.0-alpine in Dockerfile.

Not working with X-pack

It seems there is a problem with running this image with the corresponding elasticsearch image with x-pack activated.

Using this docker-compose.yml does not work

elasticsearch:
    image: blacktop/elasticsearch:7.5
    container_name: elasticsearch
    hostname: elasticsearch
    ulimits:
      memlock:
        soft: -1
        hard: -1
    ports:
      - "9200:9200"
      - "9300:9300"
    networks:
      - flex
  kibana:
    image: blacktop/kibana:7.5
    container_name: kibana
    hostname: kibana
    ports:
      - "5601:5601"
    networks:
      - flex
    depends_on:
      - elasticsearch

Gives this error

:["warning","plugins","licensing"],"pid":6,"message":"License information could not be obtained from Elasticsearch for the [data] cluster.

Fix main github documentation

Compare Image Sizes:

official kibana = 242MB
blacktop/kibana = 250MB

Alpine version is 417 MB smaller !

242MB - 417MB = 250MB (not!)

Implement env var substitution

Is there any way to implement _ to . substitution and lowercasing the parameters, as dots can cause some troubles in vars when used via bash.

so HOST_NAME becomes host.name

xpack has ownership bug in optimize folder

Hi,

if I substitute the kibana.yml kibana will start its optimize process again.
After you installed the xpack I got permission denied for /usr/share/kibana/optimized.

You need to run the xpack installation as kibana user or you need to set the owner for kibana again, as you did before xpack installation.

Kibana 5.6

Hello when i start the container with this command:

docker run --init -d --name kibana --link elasticsearch -p 5601:5601 blacktop/kibana:5.6

the container stop with this error /usr/bin/node: bad option: --max-http-header-size=65536

there is a workaround?

All gpg keyservers in dockerfile are failing now

This snippet seems to be rendered useless now for the gpg verification step as none of the 3 keyservers are giving good responses anymore. It's not ideal, but to workaround it you can comment out this whole section:

if [ "$TARBALL_ASC" ]; then \
  wget --progress=bar:force -O kibana.tar.gz.asc "$TARBALL_ASC"; \
  export GNUPGHOME="$(mktemp -d)"; \
  ( gpg --keyserver ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys "$GPG_KEY" \
  || gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys "$GPG_KEY" \
  || gpg --keyserver keyserver.pgp.com --recv-keys "$GPG_KEY" ); \
  gpg --batch --verify kibana.tar.gz.asc kibana.tar.gz; \
  rm -rf "$GNUPGHOME" kibana.tar.gz.asc || true; \
  fi; \

Errors I'm seeing:

$ gpg --keyserver ha.pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys "46095ACC8548582C1A2699A9D27D666CD88E42B4"
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No name

$ gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys "46095ACC8548582C1A2699A9D27D666CD88E42B4"
gpg: keyserver receive failed: No keyserver available

$ gpg --keyserver keyserver.pgp.com --recv-keys "46095ACC8548582C1A2699A9D27D666CD88E42B4"

It does look like the following is operational, however, if you want to switch to that:
