Kibana 4 Docker Image

This is a million12/kibana4⁠ docker image with Kibana 4 for Elasticsearch. It's based on CentOS-7 and offers ability to provide any argument to kibana process.

This container is built that any extra parameters provided to docker run will be passed directly to kibana command. For example, if you run docker run [run options] million12/kibana4 -e http://elasticsearch_address:9200 you pass -e http://elasticsearch_address:9200 to kibana daemon.
