Why OpenSearch?

OpenSearch is a scalable, flexible, and extensible open-source software suite for search, analytics, and observability applications derived from Elasticsearch 7.10.2 and Kibana 7.10.2 and licensed under Apache 2.0. It consists of a search engine daemon (OpenSearch) and a user interface for data administration and visualizations (OpenSearch Dashboards).

How to pull this image?

You can pull the OpenSearch Docker image just like any other image.

docker pull opensearchproject/opensearch:latest

See Docker Hub for a list of all available versions.

Note: OpenSearch images use Amazon Linux 2 as the base image for 1.x versions and 2.x versions up until 2.9.0, and Amazon Linux 2023 since 2.10.0. If you are using Docker Desktop, then we recommend configuring Docker to use a minimum of 4 GB of your system memory.

How to use this image?

Run a single node for local development.

docker run -it -p 9200:9200 -p 9600:9600 -e "discovery.type=single-node" --name opensearch-node -d opensearchproject/opensearch:latest

Note: For OpenSearch 2.12 and later, a custom password for the admin user is required to be passed to set-up and utilize demo configuration.

docker run -it -p 9200:9200 -p 9600:9600 -e OPENSEARCH_INITIAL_ADMIN_PASSWORD=<strong-password> -e "discovery.type=single-node"  --name opensearch-node opensearchproject/opensearch:latest

Send requests to the OpenSearch REST API to verify that OpenSearch is working. By default, OpenSearch uses self-signed TLS certificates. The -k short option skips the certificate verification step so requests don't fail. The default username is admin and the password will be admin for OpenSearch 2.12 and earlier. For OpenSearch 2.12 and later, the password will be the custom value, which is required to be provided during the demo configuration setup for security plugin.

curl -X GET "https://localhost:9200" -ku admin:<password>
curl -X GET "https://localhost:9200/_cat/nodes?v" -ku admin:<password>
curl -X GET "https://localhost:9200/_cat/plugins?v" -ku admin:<password>

You can stop, start, and restart your container by passing either the container ID or the container name as an argument. For example, to stop the container use the following command.

docker stop opensearch-node

Start a cluster

Get started with an OpenSearch cluster by using Docker Compose. If you use Docker Desktop then Docker Compose is already installed on your machine and you will use the command docker compose. Otherwise, you will need to manually install Docker Compose.

If Python is installed in your environment, then you can use a utility such as pip, the package installer for Python, to install Docker Compose.

pip install docker-compose

After the installation is complete, define a cluster in a Compose file. The OpenSearch Project provides a sample docker-compose.yml you can use. Once you've created the file, use Docker Compose to build and manage your cluster.

Navigate to the directory where you saved docker-compose.yml and start your cluster. Use the -d option to run the containers in the background.

docker-compose up -d

Stop the cluster with the following command.

docker-compose down

If you also with to delete the associated data volumes, use the -v option.

docker-compose down -v
