ElasticSearch plugins

[throrin19]

Hello, How to install plugins in elasticsearch in the catalog ?

@throrin19 did you figure this out? I was doing some customizations on our rancher-compose template and I found that there are two ways to install elastic search plugins:

• Add your plugins as static libs to the path: /elasticsearch/plugins
  • Note: You can volume mount it as a sidekick
  • See: https://github.com/rancher/catalog-dockerfiles/blob/master/elasticsearch/containers/0.4.0/elasticsearch-conf/templates/plugins.tmpl
• Mount a volume with the file plugins.txt that is newline delimited with the list of plugins to add. Then set your path in the env var PLUGIN_TXT
  • See: https://github.com/rancher/catalog-dockerfiles/blob/master/elasticsearch/containers/0.4.0/elasticsearch-conf/run.sh
