|
The data views API provides a consistent method of structuring and formatting documents and field lists across the various Kibana apps. It’s typically used in conjunction with <DocLink id="kibDevTutorialDataSearchAndSessions" section="high-level-search" text="SearchSource" /> for composing queries. |
|
The ui/registry/dev_tools is removed in favor of the devTools plugin which exposes a register method in the setup contract. Registering app works mostly the same as registering apps in core.application.register. Routing will be handled by the id of the dev tool - your dev tool will be mounted when the URL matches /app/dev_tools#/<YOUR ID>. This API doesn’t support angular, for registering angular dev tools, bootstrap a local module on mount into the given HTML element. |
|
Contains the Discover application and the saved search embeddable. |
|
The Embeddables Plugin provides an opportunity to expose reusable interactive widgets that can be embedded outside the original plugin. |

|
Expression pipeline is a chain of functions that pipe its output to the
input of the next function. Functions can be configured using arguments provided
by the user. The final output of the expression pipeline can be rendered using
one of the renderers registered in All the arguments to expression functions need to be serializable, as well as input and output. Expression functions should try to stay pure. This makes functions easy to reuse and also make it possible to serialize the whole chain as well as output at every step of execution. It is possible to add comments to expressions by starting them with a Expressions power visualizations in Dashboard and Lens, as well as, every element in Canvas is backed by an expression. This plugin provides methods which will parse & execute an expression pipeline string for you, as well as a series of registries for advanced users who might want to incorporate their own functions, types, and renderers into the service for use in their own application. |
|
Expression Shape plugin adds a shape function to the expression plugin and an associated renderer. The renderer will display the given shape with selected decorations. |

|
The share plugin contains various utilities for displaying sharing context menu, generating deep links to other apps using locators, and creating short URLs. |
|
Telemetry allows Kibana features to have usage tracked in the wild. The general term "telemetry" refers to multiple things: |
|
Telemetry’s collection manager to go through all the telemetry sources when fetching it before reporting. |
|
This plugin adds the Advanced Settings section for the Usage and Security Data collection (aka Telemetry). |
|
The editor accepts the following properties: |
|
UI Actions plugins provides API to manage triggers and actions. Trigger is an abstract description of user’s intent to perform an action (like user clicking on a value inside chart). It allows us to do runtime binding between code from different plugins. For, example one such trigger is when somebody applies filters on dashboard; another one is when somebody opens a Dashboard panel context menu. Actions are pieces of code that execute in response to a trigger. For example, to the dashboard filtering trigger multiple actions can be attached. Once a user filters on the dashboard all possible actions are displayed to the user in a popup menu and the user has to chose one. In general this plugin provides: - Creating custom functionality (actions). - Creating custom user interaction events (triggers). - Attaching and detaching actions to triggers. - Emitting trigger events. - Executing actions attached to a given trigger. - Exposing a context menu for the user to choose the appropriate action when there are multiple actions attached to a single trigger. |
|
Registers commercially licensed generic actions like per panel time range and contains some code that supports drilldown work. |
|
This Kibana plugin contains components and services for field list UI (as in fields sidebar on Discover and Lens pages). |
|

|
Contains all the components of Kibana’s unified search experience. Specifically: |
|
This plugins contains helpers to redirect legacy URLs. It can be used to forward old URLs to their new counterparts. |
|
The Usage Collection Service defines a set of APIs for other plugins to report the usage of their features. At the same time, it provides necessary the APIs for other services (i.e.: telemetry, monitoring, …) to consume that usage data. |
|
The default editor is used in most primary visualizations, e.x. Area, Data table, Pie, etc. It acts as a container for a particular visualization and options tabs. Contains the default "Data" tab in public/components/sidebar/data_tab.tsx. The plugin exposes the static DefaultEditorController class to consume. |
