Your window into the Elastic Stack

This PR addresses a list of legacy code debt the plugin has incurred over the past year due to extensive changes in its internals and the adoption of the Kibana Platform. It includes: 1. The `TaskManager` class has been split into several independent components: `TaskTypeDictionary`, `TaskPollingLifecycle`, `TaskScheduling`, `Middleware`. This has made it easier to understand the roles of the different parts and makes it easier to plug them into the observability work. 2. The exposed `mocks` have been corrected to correctly express the Kibana Platform api 3. The lifecycle has been corrected to remove the need for intermediary streames/promises which we're needed when we first introduced the `setup`/`start` lifecycle to support legacy. 4. The Logger mocks have been replaced with the platform's `coreMocks` implementation 5. The integration tests now test the plugin's actual public api (instead of the internals). 6. The Legacy Elasticsearch client has been replaced with the typed client in response to the deprecation notice. 7. Typing has been narrowed to prevent the `type` field from conflicting with the key in the `TaskDictionary`. This could have caused the displayed `type` on a task to differ from the `type` used in the Dictionary itself (this broke a test during refactoring and could have caused a bug in production code if left). |

Getting Started
If you just want to try Kibana out, check out the Elastic Stack Getting Started Page to give it a whirl.
If you're interested in diving a bit deeper and getting a taste of Kibana's capabilities, head over to the Kibana Getting Started Page.
Using a Kibana Release
If you want to use a Kibana release in production, give it a test run, or just play around:
- Download the latest version on the Kibana Download Page.
- Learn more about Kibana's features and capabilities on the Kibana Product Page.
- We also offer a hosted version of Kibana on our Cloud Service.
Building and Running Kibana, and/or Contributing Code
You might want to build Kibana locally to contribute some code, test out the latest features, or try out an open PR:
- CONTRIBUTING.md will help you get Kibana up and running.

- For all other questions, check out the FAQ.md and wiki.
Documentation
Visit Elastic.co for the full Kibana documentation.
For information about building the documentation, see the README in elastic/docs.
Version Compatibility with Elasticsearch
Ideally, you should be running Elasticsearch and Kibana with matching version numbers. If your Elasticsearch has an older version number or a newer major number than Kibana, then Kibana will fail to run. If Elasticsearch has a newer minor or patch number than Kibana, then the Kibana Server will log a warning.
Note: The version numbers below are only examples, meant to illustrate the relationships between different types of version numbers.
| Situation | Example Kibana version | Example ES version | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Versions are the same. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.2 | 💚 OK |
| ES patch number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.5 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
| ES minor number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 5.5.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
| ES major number is newer. | 5.1.2 | 6.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
| ES patch number is older. | 5.1.2 | 5.1.0 | ⚠️ Logged warning |
| ES minor number is older. | 5.1.2 | 5.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
| ES major number is older. | 5.1.2 | 4.0.0 | 🚫 Fatal error |
