Kibana

This recipe adds Kibana container to a project.

This will allow you to visualize your Elasticsearch data and do anything from tracking query load to understanding the way requests flow through your apps.

Note to Apple M1 and other arm64 users: At last check the kibana 7.10.1 image referenced here was amd64-only, so your mileage may vary with this recipe. You may want to use one of the multiplatform images like kibana/kibana:7.13.3 at the elastic.co docker repository

Requirements

Kibana requires a working instance of Elasticsearch running for it to connect to. This requires the docker-compose recipe for elasticsearch in ddev-contrib.

Configuration

If your Elasticsearch server is not available inside the kibana container at http://ddev-<projectname>-elasticsearch:9200 (as it is when using the ddev-contrib recipe, then you need to edit docker-compose.kibana.yaml and edit the following and edit theELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS environment variable to the url your Elasticsearch server is available at within the kibana container.

Current Kibana version is 7.10.1, to change the version you need to edit the image parameter in docker-compose.kibana.yaml

Installation

• Copy docker-compose.kibana.yaml to the .ddev folder of your project.
• Start (or restart) DDEV to have the service initialized: ddev start
• Access Kibana at https://<DDEV_STENAME>.ddev.site:5602.
