A JSON aware developer's interface to ElasticSearch. Comes with handy machinery such as syntax highlighting, autocomplete, formatting and code folding.

The development of Sense has moved into the Elasticsearch Kibana-Console and you have to check there if you want new features: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/console-kibana.html

This Fork is basically the original Chrome Extension from https://github.com/bleskes/sense_old before it was integrated into Kibana.

This Fork contains just some tweaks to keep it working with Elasticsearch 6.

Sense is installed as a Chrome Extension. The original extension is not on the Chrome Webstore anymore.

To install it manually:

Clone this repository to your machine, open Chrome, go to chrome://extensions/, turn on the Developer mode, click Load unpacked and select the cloned folder.
