Show HN: Dejavu – a modern, open-source data browser for Elasticsearch

We originally built dejavu as a data viewer for Elasticsearch to scratch our own itch at appbase.io. It all started when we shifted our APIs to use Elasticsearch transparently and needed a way to display the DB data to users. We tried elasticsearch-head and a couple of other similar tools but found them to be lacking in Ux and stodgy. Others (like Kibana) were more geared towards visualization / charting than viewing raw data and even then, were hard to use outside the Elasticsearch ecosystem.

With dejavu, our goal has been to build an open-source data viewer with a modern UI and make it more widely available. You can get it from the chrome webstore, use it from a github hosted page or install it as a plugin with Elasticsearch.

very cool. been looking for something like this for a long time, just didn't have time to hack something together. Thanks for a fantastic resource.

this is super useful to me, I've been looking for something like this that also has basic CRUD operations for a while.

What alternatives are out there?

This is great!

not bad, would be great if you could also export the filtered data
