I've just install latest elasticseach on my mac using brew install elasticsearch, and it can run and I can see contents from localhost:9200.

But I tried to install web-browser for it. So the stack over flow says there's a "plugin" command under elasticsearch/bin folder. But seems this is an answer for very old version of Elasticsearch. Now there's only one /usr/local/Cellar/elasticsearch/5.1.1/libexec/bin/elasticsearch-plugin, and I failed to:

elasticsearch-plugin install mobz/elasticsearch-head

It's not successful. But how to achieve it? Thanks a lot.

In addition to what Andrei said, you may install another standalone tool called cerebro: https://github.com/lmenezes/cerebro

It's from the same author who developed the kopf plugin back then for previous ES releases (2.x and backwards).

Basically, the exact same UI as the Kopf plugin, but as a standalone Scala app.

elasticsearch-head is not supported in ES 5.x anymore. See here more details about this: https://github.com/mobz/elasticsearch-head#running-as-a-plugin-of-elasticsearch-deprecated

for Elasticsearch 5.x: site plugins are not supported. Run as a standalone server

And you need to use it with the standalone server option.
