zinvoice/elasticsearch repository overview

⁠Elasticsearch Docker Container

This packages are build upon BusyBox and provide a minimal footprint and are configurable.

Take also a look at ELK stack friends. zinvoice/logstash⁠ sirile/kibanabox⁠ progrium/logspout⁠ tonistiigi/dnsdock⁠

⁠Quick Start

If you have docker-compose⁠ installed (aka. fig) you can download our docker-compose.yml⁠ file and run it with docker-compose up -d to start the complete ELK Stack.

⁠Manual Quick Start

docker run -d --name elasticsearch -h elasticsearch \
	-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
	-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
	-p 9200:9200 \
	zinvoice/elasticsearch

If you would like to start the rest of ELK Stack here are the other compatible container.

docker run -d --name logstash -h logstash \
	-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
	-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
	-p 9200:9200 \
	zinvoice/logstash

docker run -d --name kibana -h kibana \
	-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
	-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
	-p 8000:80 \ 
	sirile/kibanabox

docker run -d --name logspout -h logspout \
	-v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
	-v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
	-v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock \
	-p 8100:8000 \ 
	progrium/logspout \
	syslog://<<IP-OR-HOSTNAME-OF-LOGSTASH>:5000

When running with dnsdock you can simple put in the dns entry of logstash which is logstash

⁠How is it working

We use progrium/logspout which is a "docker daemon aware" container that forwards STDOUT and STDERR streams of ALL running containers to logstash. We also use dnsdock to avoid the need to link the container together.

⁠Configuration

You can configure elasticsearch in two ways

1. Mount your custom created elasticsearch.yml file from you Host mashine into zinvoice/elasticsearch with -v /host/dir/elasticsearch.yml:/opt/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml. Full example: docker run -d --name elasticsearch -h elasticsearch -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro -v /host/dir/elasticsearch.yml:/opt/elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml -p 9200:9200 zinvoice/elasticsearch

2. Create a brand new config container and define a volume inside the Dockerfile VOLUME /opt/elasticsearch/config/ COPY your file elasticsearch.yml into that folder and create that container (no need to run/start it). After the container is created your can start elasticsearch and mount the volumes from the config container in this way: docker run -d --name elasticsearch -h elasticsearch -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro -v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro -volumes-from you/nameOfConfigContainer -p 9200:9200 zinvoice/elasticsearch
