Autocomplete kibana.yml

Read autocomplete kibana.yml for more information.

The Kibana server reads properties from the kibana.yml file on startup. The location of this file differs depending on how you installed Kibana. For example, if you installed Kibana from an archive distribution (.tar.gz or .zip), by default it is in $KIBANA_HOME/config. By default, with package distributions (Debian or RPM), it is in /etc/kibana.

The default settings configure Kibana to run on localhost:5601. To change the host or port number, or connect to Elasticsearch running on a different machine, you’ll need to update your kibana.yml file. You can also enable SSL and set a variety of other options. Finally, environment variables can be injected into configuration using ${MY_ENV_VAR} syntax.

Kibana configuration settings

console.enabled:

Default: true Set to false to disable Console. Toggling this will cause the server to regenerate assets on the next startup, which may cause a delay before pages start being served.

cpu.cgroup.path.override:

Override for cgroup CPU path when mounted in a manner that is inconsistent with /proc/self/cgroup

cpuacct.cgroup.path.override:

Override for cgroup cpuacct path when mounted in a manner that is inconsistent with /proc/self/cgroup

csp.rules:

A template content-security-policy that disables certain unnecessary and potentially insecure capabilities in the browser. We strongly recommend that you keep the default CSP rules that ship with Kibana.

csp.strict:

Default: false Blocks access to Kibana to any browser that does not enforce even rudimentary CSP rules. In practice, this will disable support for older, less safe browsers like Internet Explorer.

csp.warnLegacyBrowsers:

Default: true Shows a warning message after loading Kibana to any browser that does not enforce even rudimentary CSP rules, though Kibana is still accessible. This configuration is effectively ignored when csp.strict is enabled.

elasticsearch.customHeaders:

Default: {} Header names and values to send to Elasticsearch. Any custom headers cannot be overwritten by client-side headers, regardless of the elasticsearch.requestHeadersWhitelist configuration.

elasticsearch.hosts:

Default: “http://localhost:9200” The URLs of the Elasticsearch instances to use for all your queries. All nodes listed here must be on the same cluster.

elasticsearch.logQueries:

Default: false Logs queries sent to Elasticsearch. Requires logging.verbose set to true. This is useful for seeing the query DSL generated by applications that currently do not have an inspector, for example, Timelion and Monitoring.

elasticsearch.pingTimeout:

Default: the value of the elasticsearch.requestTimeout setting Time in milliseconds to wait for Elasticsearch to respond to pings.

elasticsearch.preserveHost:

Default: true When this setting’s value is true, Kibana uses the hostname specified in the server.host setting. When the value of this setting is false, Kibana uses the hostname of the host that connects to this Kibana instance.

elasticsearch.requestHeadersWhitelist:

Default: [ 'authorization' ] List of Kibana client-side headers to send to Elasticsearch. To send no client-side headers, set this value to [] (an empty list).

elasticsearch.requestTimeout:

Default: 30000 Time in milliseconds to wait for responses from the back end or Elasticsearch. This value must be a positive integer.

elasticsearch.shardTimeout:

Default: 30000 Time in milliseconds for Elasticsearch to wait for responses from shards. Set to 0 to disable.

elasticsearch.sniffInterval:

Default: false Time in milliseconds between requests to check Elasticsearch for an updated list of nodes.

elasticsearch.sniffOnConnectionFault:

Default: false Update the list of Elasticsearch nodes immediately following a connection fault.

elasticsearch.sniffOnStart:

Default: false Attempt to find other Elasticsearch nodes on startup.

elasticsearch.ssl.alwaysPresentCertificate:

Default: false Controls whether to always present the certificate specified by elasticsearch.ssl.certificate when requested. This applies to all requests to Elasticsearch, including requests that are proxied for end-users. Setting this to true when Elasticsearch is using certificates to authenticate users can lead to proxied requests for end-users being executed as the identity tied to the configured certificate.

elasticsearch.ssl.certificate: and elasticsearch.ssl.key:

Optional settings that provide the paths to the PEM-format SSL certificate and key files. These files are used to verify the identity of Kibana to Elasticsearch and are required when xpack.ssl.verification_mode in Elasticsearch is set to either certificate or full.

elasticsearch.ssl.certificateAuthorities:

Optional setting enables you to specify a list of paths to the PEM file for the certificate authority for your Elasticsearch instance.

elasticsearch.ssl.keyPassphrase:

The passphrase will be used to decrypt the private key. This value is optional as the key may not be encrypted.

elasticsearch.ssl.verificationMode:

Default: full Controls the verification of certificates presented by Elasticsearch. Valid values are none, certificate, and full. full performs hostname verification, and certificate does not.

elasticsearch.startupTimeout:

Default: 5000 Time in milliseconds to wait for Elasticsearch at Kibana startup before retrying.

elasticsearch.username: and elasticsearch.password:

If your Elasticsearch is protected with basic authentication, these settings provide the username and password that the Kibana server uses to perform maintenance on the Kibana index at startup. Your Kibana users still need to authenticate with Elasticsearch, which is proxied through the Kibana server.

interpreter.enableInVisualize

Default: true Enables use of interpreter in Visualize.

kibana.defaultAppId:

Default: “home” The default application to load.

kibana.index:

Default: “.kibana” Kibana uses an index in Elasticsearch to store saved searches, visualizations, and dashboards. Kibana creates a new index if the index doesn’t already exist. If you configure a custom index, the name must be lowercase and conform to Elasticsearch index name limitations.

kibana.autocompleteTimeout:

Default: “1000” Time in milliseconds to wait for autocomplete suggestions from Elasticsearch. This value must be a whole number greater than zero.

kibana.autocompleteTerminateAfter:

Default: “100000” Maximum number of documents loaded by each shard to generate autocomplete suggestions. This value must be a whole number greater than zero.

logging.dest:

Default: stdout Enables you to specify a file where Kibana stores log output.

logging.json:

Default: false Logs output as JSON. When set to true, the logs will be formatted as JSON strings that include a timestamp, log level, context, message text and any other metadata that may be associated with the log message itself. If logging.dest.stdout is set and there is no interactive terminal (“TTY”), this setting will default to true.

logging.quiet:

Default: false Set the value of this setting to true to suppress all logging output other than error messages.

logging.silent:

Default: false Set the value of this setting to true to suppress all logging output.

logging.timezone

Default: UTC Set to the canonical timezone id (for example, America/Los_Angeles) to log events using that timezone.

logging.verbose:

Default: false Set the value of this setting to true to log all events, including system usage information and all requests. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise.

map.includeElasticMapsService:

Default: true Set to false to disable connections to Elastic Maps Service. When includeElasticMapsService is turned off, only the vector layers configured by map.regionmap and the tile layer configured by map.tilemap.url will be available in the Maps application, Coordinate map visualizations, and Region map visualizations.

map.proxyElasticMapsServiceInMaps:

Default: false Set to true to proxy all Maps application Elastic Maps Service requests through the Kibana server. This setting does not impact Coordinate map visualizations and Region map visualizations.

map.regionmap:

Specifies additional vector layers for use in Region Map visualizations. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise. Each layer object points to an external vector file that contains a geojson FeatureCollection. The file must use the WGS84 coordinate reference system and only include polygons. If the file is hosted on a separate domain from Kibana, the server needs to be CORS-enabled so Kibana can download the file. The following example shows a valid regionmap configuration.

map.regionmap:
  includeElasticMapsService: false
  layers:
     - name: "Departments of France"
       url: "http://my.cors.enabled.server.org/france_departements.geojson"
       attribution: "INRAP"
       fields:
          - name: "department"
            description: "Full department name"
          - name: "INSEE"
            description: "INSEE numeric identifier"

map.regionmap.includeElasticMapsService:

Turns on or off whether layers from the Elastic Maps Service should be included in the vector layer option list. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise. By turning this off, only the layers that are configured here will be included. The default is true.

map.regionmap.layers[].fields[]:

Mandatory. Each layer can contain multiple fields to indicate what properties from the geojson features you wish to expose. The example above shows how to define multiple properties. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise.

map.regionmap.layers[].fields[].description:

Mandatory. The human readable text that is shown under the Options tab when building the Region Map visualization. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise.

map.regionmap.layers[].fields[].name:

Mandatory. This value is used to do an inner-join between the document stored in Elasticsearch and the geojson file. For example, if the field in the geojson is called Location and has city names, there must be a field in Elasticsearch that holds the same values that Kibana can then use to lookup for the geoshape data. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise.

map.regionmap.layers[].name:

Mandatory. A description of the map being provided. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise.

map.regionmap.layers[].url:

Mandatory. The location of the geojson file as provided by a webserver. Supported on Elastic Cloud Enterprise.

Creating an autocomplete or an auto suggest search bar is often involves a very complicated and elaborate process if you follow the conventional methods and try to build one for yourself. Especially if you are running a small website on WordPress using woocommerce then you will rarely have the time and money to invest in building an autosuggest search bar all by yourself. However you cannot ignore the search functionality and not have a wordpress woocommerce search bar this will do more harm than good.

This is exactly where a woocommerce smart search app or sometimes called as a woocommerce product search box widget really shines. These search plugins offer all the benefits of having a great search bar without having the need to ever invest a lot of time and energy on building it. The other functionality that goes hand in hand with the search plugin is the  woocommerce filter plugin. This is a also pretty resource centric to setup if tried to be done all by yourself. It is best advisable to get a woocommerce search and filter plugin. Having a product filter for woocommerce is a also a primary requirement these days and there is absolutely no substitute for it. Product filters can also be facets at times and these names are used interchangeably most of the times even though there is a light difference when it comes to the actual meaning, however getting a faceted search woocommerce app will do the same functionality as getting a woocommerce product search filter plugin. ultimately having a filter or a facet option is a necessary feature that has to be included in the site. Therfore getting a faceted search woocommerce product filter solution is a must for the site.
