============================

A Consul Template powered Kibana docker container.

• 5.2-0.18.0, latest - kibana v5.2 with consul template version 0.18.0 (5.2-0.18.0/Dockerfile)
• 4.5-0.18.0 - kibana v4.5 with consul template version 0.18.0 (4.5-0.18.0/Dockerfile)

docker run stakater/kibana-with-consul-template:latest

This image is intended to be run together with Consul and Consul-Template

The daemon consul-template queries a Consul instance and updates any number of specified templates on the file system. As an added bonus, consul-template can optionally run arbitrary commands when the update process completes.

consul-template -consul-addr=$CONSUL_URL -template="/templates/kibana.ctmpl:/opt/kibana/config/kibana.yml:service kibana restart"

• The URL to the Elasticsearch instance to use for all your queries should be defined by the key /kibana/elasticsearchURL. It should be a complete url including the port as well. You may use consul dns entries too. Example: http://elasticsearch-9200:9200, where elasticsearch-9200 is a consul dns entry.

Note: If the key /kibana/elasticsearchURL does not exist, the property will be assigned default value of http://elasticsearch:9200.

• If you are running kibana behind a proxy, and want to mount it at a path specify that path by the key /kibana/basePath. The basePath can't end in a slash. Example: /kibana
