Kibana Tag Cloud Plugin

A Tag Cloud Plugin for Kibana 4

Kibana Tag Cloud

This visualization was inspired by Tim Roe's blog post on creating a tag cloud plugin for Kibana 4. It is built using D3 and Jason Davie's d3-cloud plugin.

Requirements

Kibana 4.3+

Installation steps

  1. Download and unpack Kibana.
  2. From the Kibana root directory, install the plugin with the following command:

$ bin/kibana plugin -i tagcloud -u https://github.com/stormpython/tagcloud/archive/master.zip

Disclosure

This repo is in its early stages. There is an outstanding bug that needs to be fixed. In addition, please note d3-cloud's warning regarding how word clouds are rendered.

Note: if a word cannot be placed in any of the positions attempted along the spiral, it is not included in the final word layout. This may be addressed in a future release.
