Add option to convert standard visualizations to Vega/VegaLite #26076

Closed bczifra closed 5 years ago

bczifra commented 5 years ago

Describe the feature: It would be helpful to be able to convert a standard Kibana visualization to Vega/VegaLite or at least have the Vega/VegaLite code be automatically generated based upon an existing visualization. Perhaps a "Vega/VegaLite" tab could be added to the "Inspect" options.

Describe a specific use case for the feature: Building Vega visualizations can be difficult, it would be helpful to build the basic components in Kibana's visualization editor and use that as a baseline for the remainder of the Vega visualization.

Thanks a lot for engaging with the Kibana community. We evaluated and discussed that feature and unfortunately - though it's a valid enhancement request - decided, that we consider it too specific for putting it into the Kibana core. We think such a feature might be a better fit for a plugin provided by the community.

Since we are trying to keep the open issues to a manageable count, we will be closing this issue, since there are no plans on our side to address it in the future. Thanks again for your contribution.
