Can't install sense plugin for Kibana

问题

I am trying to install sense plugin for elasticsearch/kibana. I have successfully installed Kibana but when following the instruction on https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/sense/current/installing.html I type : ./kibana plugin --install elastic/sense, on the bin directory inside kibana folder, and I get :

 ERROR  unknown command plugin

  Usage: bin/kibana [command=serve] [options]

  Kibana is an open source (Apache Licensed), browser based analytics and search dashboard for Elasticsearch.

  Commands:
    serve  [options]  Run the kibana server
    help  <command>   Get the help for a specific command

  "serve" Options:

    -h, --help                 output usage information
    -e, --elasticsearch <uri>  Elasticsearch instance
    -c, --config <path>        Path to the config file, can be changed with the CONFIG_PATH environment variable as well. Use mulitple --config args to include multiple config files.
    -p, --port <port>          The port to bind to
    -q, --quiet                Prevent all logging except errors
    -Q, --silent               Prevent all logging
    --verbose                  Turns on verbose logging
    -H, --host <host>          The host to bind to
    -l, --log-file <path>      The file to log to
    --plugin-dir <path>        A path to scan for plugins, this can be specified multiple times to specify multiple directories
    --plugin-path <path>       A path to a plugin which should be included by the server, this can be specified multiple times to specify multiple paths
    --plugins <path>           an alias for --plugin-dir

I can't figure out why I get this error, how can I install sense plugin then ?

As wuxiwei said, Sense was renamed to Console and it is already available on Kibana 5.*. In Kibana, just click on Dev Tools:

回答2:

Sense was renamed to Console and is built into Kibana 5. You can find it by clicking on the Dev Tools application.

回答3:

Sense is now included as Console in Kibana 5.0. You can view the following link: https://github.com/elastic/sense/blob/master/README.md

There is no need of installing sense seprately, as it is now included as Console.
elasticsearch and kibana should be running then Console can be found on :
http://localhost:5601/app/kibana#/dev_tools/console

Manual Downloaded it Kibana’s bin/plugin script requires direct internet access for downloading and installing Sense. If your server doesn’t have internet access, you can download the Sense tar file from the following link: https://download.elasticsearch.org/elastic/sense/sense-latest.tar.gz

Once downloaded you can install Sense using the following command:

$ bin/kibana plugin -i sense -u file:///PATH_TO_SENSE_TAR_FILE

回答5:

I am using kibana 6.5.4 and now we use Dev Tools instead of using sense plugin. you can input: http://127.0.0.1:5601/app/kibana after starting your new version of kibana services and you will find Dev Tools on the left side.

回答6:

It was renamed to Console. After you start Kibana, you can easily browse Console directly from http://localhost:5601/app/kibana#/dev_tools/console
