Customize Kibana visualization

Question

From what I've read on the net, Kibana does not yet offer any official way to customize its visualizations.

But often we'd like to slightly adapt them (without creating new ones from scratch):

• choose the colors of visual elements like auto-generated bars
• change the labels of columns in tables
• add some custom information when hovering over elements
• ...

Is there a generic way to handle this?

More specifically I guess: how to inject our own JavaScript logic into the Kibana pages?

Answer 1

Kibana 4 doesn't offer JavaScript injection. However you can customize by own via fork the kibana 4 github code base and Build your kibana packages. I did customization of kibana xAxisLabel & yAxislabel and colors
