laurentmalvert/docker-elasticdump repository overview

⁠Description

Provides a Dockerfile to build a docker image allowing you to build your own images to automate Elasticsearch import/export operations using elasticdump⁠ and jq⁠.

⁠Why?

3 simple reasons:

• There are no elasticdump images out there.

• The community images out there often use an outdated version and have not kept up with the latest updates in the fast evolving Elastic Stack world.

• I write my own automation scripts for some elasticsearch-based projets, and I need to be able to export/import data from ES easily (notably Kibana dashboards). Writing simple scripts using elasticdump and jq (to beautify on export and re-compress on import automagically) is a nice approach. So I wanted a base image including both, in their latest version.

⁠Pull From DockerHub

docker pull laurentmalvert/docker-elasticdump

⁠Build It Yourself

docker -t elasticdump .

⁠Usage

⁠Running elasticdump

docker run          \
       laurentmalvert/docker-elasticdump

⁠Possible Improvements ?

• I might publish some of my automation scripts for direct reuse, in a separate image.
