Elasticsearch Curator

An tiny Alpine-based container that allows one to use the Elasticsearch curator command. By default, runs in a loop sleeping for the INTERVAL_IN_HOURS, then running cleanup again. However, you can pass in a new CMD - prefix with - to simply append arguments to the curator command, or execute a completely different argument (e.g. /bin/bash).

Available in two different flavours:

3.5

Used to connect to Elasticsearch 1.x, 2.x and the AWS Elasticsearch 1.x/2.x instances.

4.5

Used to connect to Elasticsearch 2.x and 5.x.
