Hi,

I'll add the install plugin provider.
The issue that I don't have so much time now, but i'll try to do it in the next couple of weeks.
You can put feature tag on this issue.

I am successfully using this cookbook to deploy kibana 6.2.3 ... Great work and thank you!

I have run into a minor issue, according to the documentation, kibana-plugin needs to be run with the kibana user ... See: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/6.2/_installing_plugins.html#_installing_plugins_with_linux_packages

Can you please add matchers?
I wanna add rspec tests but can't.

Thanks in advance!

I saw that the latest version of this cookbook sets the default version to a node attribute, which would seem to allow a user to change the version to be installed by changing that attribute; however, it looks like it doesn't actually have any effect.

In a wrapper cookbook, I set the node['kibana5']['version'] attribute to 5.3.0 but when chef converges the node, kibana version 5.4.1 is installed.
It might be necessary to set the version property of the kibana_install resource in the default recipe here.

We had ark=v3.1.0 installed on our chef server. When running chef-client we would always receive the error below.

We had to down grade to ark=v2.2.1 and now this installs. Might want to check it out

I haven't checked yet ,
but systemd cookbook was updated recently , so it might be the root cause.
https://github.com/nathwill/chef-systemd/releases

We've started adding urls and checksums for MacOS (darwin), but have no code to install them.

Great cookbook! Thanks very much for your recent work also.

Since you're active I figured I would post the most recent issue I've run into.

We're running elastic/kibana behind a vpn and firewall so we run without auth. I need to be able to set
xpack.security.enabled: false
in the kibana.yml

I have systemd 3.2.2 installed, but this cookbook wants 2.0.0.

How can we fix this?

Hi,
I create a wrapper cookbook named abc-kibana which depends on kibana5(1.6.5).
when I define attributes in abc-kibana as below, the default kibana5 recipe doesn't set the value for kibana.yml as expected. Please help.

abc-kibana/attributes/default.rb
default['kibana5']['config']['elasticsearch.username'] = 'user1'
default['kibana5']['config']['elasticsearch.password'] = 'pw1'

Hi,

I need this feature implemented to work with my production environment.

Thanks,
Catalin

Hi,

I am at a point where kibana is not a service and I could not find its entry inside /etc/init.d. What should I do to move on? I only need a default installation of kibana.

Hi,
can you add option to choose cookbook source ? I want to override it in my lwrp cookbook.
Like this:

default['kibana5']['config']['config_template_cookbook'] = 'kibana5'

 template node['kibana5']['config_file'] do
    cookbook node['kibana5']['config']['config_template_cookbook']
    source 'kibana.yml.erb'
    owner svc_user
    group svc_group
    mode '0644'
    variables config: config
    notifies :restart, "service[#{new_resource.svc_name}]"
  end

Because many options in kibana.yml.erb are outdated and as a result kibana.yml not properly rendered:

elasticsearch.ssl.cert => elasticsearch.ssl.certificate
elasticsearch.ssl.ca => elasticsearch.ssl.certificateAuthorities
elasticsearch.ssl.verify => elasticsearch.ssl.verificationMode

and so on.

Thanks!

We have urls and checksums for Windows packages but no code to install them.
