Quickly set up Elasticsearch and Kibana in Docker for local development or testing, using this one-liner in the command line.
This setup comes with a one-month trial license that includes all Elastic features.
- If you don’t have Docker installed,download and install Docker Desktop for your operating system.
- If you’re using Microsoft Windows, then installWindows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
To set up Elasticsearch and Kibana locally, run thestart-local script in the command line:
curl -fsSL https://elastic.co/start-local | shAfter running the script, you can access Elastic services at the following endpoints:
- Elasticsearch:http://localhost:9200
- Kibana:http://localhost:5601
That's it! There's no step 2.
