Kibana Dashboard Preview

__NOTE__: You have reached the Kibana 3 repository. Kibana 3 is completely new version of Kibana written entirely in HTML and Javascript. You can find the Kibana 2 repository at [https://github.com/rashidkpc/Kibana](https://github.com/rashidkpc/Kibana)

useful, please view it as a proof-of-concept. A play ground for ideas :-)

### Installation

Rashid
|
|
||||||
|
1. Copy the entire Kibana directory to your webserver
|
||||||
|
2. Edit config.js to point to your elasticsearch server. This should __not be http://localhost:9200__, but rather the fully qualified domain name of your elasticsearch server. The url entered here _must be reachable_ by your browser.
|
||||||
|
3. Point your browser at your installation. If you're using Logstash with the default indexing configuration the default Kibana dashboard should work nicely.
