Load the visualisation with own JSON data #68

Closed marcleibold closed 5 years ago

Hi,

I am currently trying to feed my own data which is the output of a python script i wrote into your plugin. I already tried to do it via curl and just overwrite the visualisation in the .kibana index but I just can't get the formatting right, so that the vis shows a graph according to my JSON input. The JSON input only contains 2 lists (edges and nodes), just like the format some of your examples from the HTML files in the plugin directory use.

How do I implement this data in a curl statement? Or is that even possible?

Hi,

Visualizations of Kibana uses ES aggregation, so you need to understand how it works in order to make graphs.

It is impossible to use the plugin just with normal JSON. I recommend you to use the library vis.js instead

Thanks
