There is no es-docker startup script?

[grantcurell]

The guide was great for explaining how everything works!

Question: what is the es-docker script listed in line 27 of custom-entrypoint? I don't see it anywhere.

Hi @grantcurell ;;; the es-docker startup script is provided already in the original docker image provided with elastic 5.6.0 ... please check it @ https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-docker/tree/5.6/build/elasticsearch/bin.

Since we are already referencing that docker image: "FROM docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:5.6.0" in the Dockerfile, we can use that file as its already included.

If the answer is clear, please mark that issue as closed.

I tried updating the elasticsearch image to the latest official docker image i.e. 6.4.1 and when I ran the container it was throwing an error

bash: bin/es-docker: No such file or directory

After taking a look into the official github repo @ https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-docker/tree/6.4/build/elasticsearch/bin
I found that they have changed the file from es-docker startup script to docker-entrypoint.sh and I tried to make that change in the custom entrypoint script but it is still throwing an error saying the bin/docker-entrypoint.sh directory was not found!

@shubham-pandey95 that's because they changed the path of the file to /usr/local/bin/ ( elastic/elasticsearch-docker@0abc1f8#diff-c13598a15ea527097b1741a980f33ab1L82 ) . You still can run the script with just docker-entrypoint.sh
