Monasca Kibana plugin

Keystone authentication support and multi-tenancy for Kibana 7.3.x

Build

After installing Node JS 10.15.2 and yarn, do the following to initiate Kibana development environment.

git clone https://github.com/elastic/kibana --branch 7.3
cd kibana

Clone the plugin to plugins/ inside the environment and run.

yarn kbn bootstrap
cd plugins/monasca-kibana-plugin
yarn build

Installation

Requires a working version of Kibana. The kibana configuration file (/opt/kibana/config/kibana.yml) should be updated where keystone_port should be the keystone admin port (default: 35357) not the keystone member port (default: 5000):

monasca-kibana-plugin.port: ${keystone_port}
monasca-kibana-plugin.url: http://${keystone_host}
monasca-kibana-plugin.enabled: True
monasca-kibana-plugin.logs: True
monasca-kibana-plugin.events: True
monasca-kibana-plugin.defaultTimeField: '@timestamp'
monasca-kibana-plugin.defaultEventsTimeField: '@timestamp'
monasca-kibana-plugin.logsIndexPrefix: 'logs-<project_id>'
monasca-kibana-plugin.eventsIndexPrefix: 'events-<project_id>'

Then install using the Kibana plugin manager tool:

$ /opt/kibana/bin/kibana-plugin install file:///tmp/kibana/plugins/monasca-kibana-plugin/build/monasca-kibana-plugin-7.3.0.zip
