Setup¶

The Punchp heavily relies on Elasticsearch and Kibana.

Before using Punchplatform, we need to setup Elasticsearch Templates and Kibana Resources.

Elasticsearch Templates¶

The Punch Standalone comes with Elasticsearch templates. Those templates tells Elasticsearch how to index data properly for each index patterns.

Run the following command to import those templates in Elasticsearch :

punchplatform-push-es-templates.sh -d $PUNCHPLATFORM_CONF_DIR/resources/elasticsearch/templates/ -l http://localhost:9200

The Punch comes with predefined Kibana dashboards, visualizations and index patterns to quickly start exploring your data.

To import these dashboards you can use this command-line:

punchplatform-setup-kibana.sh --import -l http://localhost:5601

In the next chapters, we will start exploring the Punch concepts.
