== Kibana Plugins
|
||||
|
||||
Add-on functionality for Kibana is implemented with plug-in modules. You can use the `bin/kibana plugin`
|
||||
command to manage these modules. You can also install a plugin manually by moving the plugin file to the
|
||||
`plugins` directory.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
=== Installing Plugins
|
||||
|
||||
Use the following command to install a plugin:
|
||||
|
||||
[source,shell]
|
||||
bin/kibana plugin --install <org>/<package>/<version>
|
||||
|
||||
You can also use `-i` instead of `--install`, as in the following example:
|
||||
|
||||
[source,shell]
|
||||
bin/kibana plugin -i elasticsearch/marvel-ui/latest
|
||||
|
||||
Because the organization given is `elasticsearch`, the plugin management tool automatically downloads the
|
||||
plugin from `download.elastic.co`.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
=== Installing Plugins from Github
|
||||
|
||||
When the specified plugin is not found at `download.elastic.co`, the plugin management tool parses the element
|
||||
as a Github user name, as in the following example:
|
||||
|
||||
[source,shell]
|
||||
bin/kibana plugin --install rashidkpc/kibana-slideshow
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
=== Removing Plugins
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `--remove` or `-r` option to remove a plugin, including any configuration information, as in the following
|
||||
example:
|
||||
|
||||
[source,shell]
|
||||
bin/kibana plugin --remove rashidkpc/kibana-slideshow
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
=== Configuring the Plugin Manager
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the plugin manager provides you with feedback on the status of the activity you've asked the plugin manager
|
||||
to perform. You can control the level of feedback with the `--quiet` and `--silent` options. Use the `--quiet` option to
|
||||
suppress all non-error output. Use the `--silent` option to suppress all output.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, plugin manager requests do not time out. Use the `--timeout` option, followed by a time, to change this
|
||||
behavior, as in the following examples:
|
||||
|
||||
[source,shell]
|
||||
.Waits for 30 seconds before failing
|
||||
bin/kibana plugin --install rashidkpc/kibana-slideshow --timeout 30s
|
||||
|
||||
[source,shell]
|
||||
.Waits for 1 minute before failing
|
||||
bin/kibana plugin --install rashidkpc/kibana-slideshow --timeout 1m
|
||||
|
||||
[float]
|
||||
=== Plugin Manager Exit Codes
|
||||
|
||||
[horizontal]
|
||||
0:: Success
|
||||
64:: Unknown command or incorrect option parameter
|
||||
74:: I/O error
|
||||
70:: Other error
