Ansible Role: Kibana

This role installs and configures Kibana 5.x for the Elastic stack.

It has only been designed to work on Ubuntu 16.04, but other Debian flavours should also work.

Requirements

None.

Role Variables

kibana_config_settings is a YAML dictionary used to fully configure Kibana. The contents of this variable are written the configuration file in YAML format. Therefore, it accepts any valid configuration property supported by Kibana.

kibana_install_state: This is useful for updating Kibana to newer versions after it has already been installed. Use latest to achieve this functionality.

Dependencies

None, but you may want to run Kibana behind a proxy - I recommend using the geerlingguy.nginx role.
