# Docker ELK / Elastic Stack Development Tools
These are tools to run a containerized version of ELK stack, comprising
of Logstash, Elastic Search, and Kibana.
A copy of the license is in `docs/licenses/docker-elk.txt`
## Instructions
Due to complex requirements from the elastic search container upstream, there
is a prerequisite to get the containers running. The docker _host_ machine
must have the `max_map_count` variable increased. For a developer using
docker-machine with something like VirtualBox of VMWare, this can be
done by getting via bash in the running Docker machine. Example:
```bash
docker-machine ssh default sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
```
After this, the containers can be started up with commands like:
```bash
make docker-compose-elk
```
```bash
make docker-compose-cluster-elk
```
These are ran from the root folder of the ansible-tower repository.
Kibana is the visualization service, and it can be accessed in a web browser
by going to `{server address}:5601`.
### Authentication
The default HTTPS logstash configuration makes use of basic auth, so a username
and password is needed in HTTPS configuration, in addition to the other
parameters. The following settings are supported:
```
{
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_HOST": "logstash",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_PORT": 8085,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_TYPE": "logstash",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_USERNAME": "awx_logger",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_PASSWORD": "workflows",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_LOGGERS": [
"awx",
"activity_stream",
"job_events",
"system_tracking"
],
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_INDIVIDUAL_FACTS": false,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_ENABLED": true,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_PROTOCOL": "https",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_TCP_TIMEOUT": 5
}
```
and
```
{
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_HOST": "logstash",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_PORT": 8086,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_TYPE": "logstash",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_LOGGERS": [
"awx",
"activity_stream",
"job_events",
"system_tracking"
],
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_INDIVIDUAL_FACTS": false,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_ENABLED": true,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_PROTOCOL": "udp",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_TCP_TIMEOUT": 5
}
```
and
```
{
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_HOST": "logstash",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_PORT": 8087,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_TYPE": "logstash",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_LOGGERS": [
"awx",
"activity_stream",
"job_events",
"system_tracking"
],
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_INDIVIDUAL_FACTS": false,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_ENABLED": true,
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_PROTOCOL": "tcp",
"LOG_AGGREGATOR_TCP_TIMEOUT": 5
}
```
These can be entered via Configure-Tower-in-Tower by making a POST to
`/api/v1/settings/logging/`.
### Connecting Logstash to 3rd Party Receivers
In order to send these logs to an external consumer of logstash format
messages, replace the output variables in the logstash.conf file.
```
output {
elasticsearch {
hosts => "elasticsearch:9200"
}
}
```
