Import & export Elasticsearch data, e.g. Kibana dashboards & configuration.

Provision (Import)

Upload documents from /var/import to Elasticsearch running on http://localhost:9200

$docker run --rm \
  -e ES_BASE_URI=http://localhost:9200 \
  -v /var/import:/app/import \
  awesomeinc/elastic_provisioner

Export

Export documents of an Elasticsearch index to /var/export:

$docker run --rm \
  -v /var/export:/app/export \
  awesomeinc/elastic_provisioner \
  export.rb [.kibana] [export]

Exporting 'http://elasticsearch:9200/.kibana' to 'export'...
...
Exporting done.

This fetches the .kibana index and downloads documents into /var/export.
