elastic-stacker 0.3.3

Import/export tool for the Elastic Stack.

Elastic Stacker

Purpose

This tool is used to export configuration objects (dashboards, pipelines, alerts, etc) out of one Elastic Stack and then allow importing in to another Stack.

A main use case is for moving from development done in a staging environment, and in to a production environment. Another use case is to keep configurations in sync between multiple production stacks, but that might live on separate networks.

Installation

Stacker is on PyPI; you can install it by running:

pip install elastic-stacker

Usage

Some simple invocations of Stacker:

Dump all ingest pipelines as JSON files, using all the default settings:

stacker pipelines dump

Dump all role mappings, deleting any files for mappings that no longer exist:

 stacker role-mappings dump --purge

Load the ingest pipelines into Elasticsearch, using the "prod" config profile:

stacker pipelines load --profile prod

Dump all resources Stacker can handle into a different data directory:

stacker system-dump --data-directory=../elastic-data
# (you can load this back in with the "system-load" subcommand)

For more detailed instructions, see usage.md. Many more configuration options can be set in the config file -- see usage.md for a full list.
