elasticsearchHow do I set up authentication for Elasticsearch?
To set up authentication for Elasticsearch, you need to enable Shield and configure roles and users. Shield is a plugin for Elasticsearch and is available in the X-Pack.
First, you need to install Shield in Elasticsearch. You can do this by running the command:
bin/elasticsearch-plugin install x-pack
This will install the X-Pack in Elasticsearch.
Next, you need to configure roles and users. You can do this by creating a elasticsearch-users.yml
file and adding the following code:
admin:
password: "adminpassword"
roles: admin
user:
password: "userpassword"
roles: user
This will create two users, admin
and user
, with the respective passwords. The admin
user will have the admin
role and the user
user will have the user
role.
Finally, you need to load the elasticsearch-users.yml
file into Elasticsearch. You can do this by running the command:
bin/elasticsearch-users useradd -b -c elasticsearch-users.yml
This will load the users and roles into Elasticsearch.
Once you have done this, authentication will be enabled for Elasticsearch.
