Usage

Launch Elastic Search Service

with default

Execute elastic server with default configuration:

	docker run -d -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 --name elasticsearch airdock/elasticsearch

Web front end URL will be: http://<YOUR HOST>:9200/_plugin/head/

With a persistent storage

'docker run -d -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -v /var/lib/elasticsearch:/var/lib/elasticsearch --name elasticsearch airdock/elasticsearch'

Take care about your permission on host folder named '/var/lib/elasticsearch'.

The user elasticsearch (uid 4202) in your container should be known into your host. See :

• How Managing user in docker container ?
• Common User List

So you should create an user with this uid:gid:

  sudo groupadd elasticsearch -g 4202
  sudo useradd -u 4202  --no-create-home --system --no-user-group elasticsearch
  sudo usermod -g elasticsearch elasticsearch

And then set owner and permissions on your host directory:

	chown -R elasticsearch:elasticsearch /var/lib/elasticsearch

Don't forget to add your current user to this new group.
