I want to use nginx to do this without passing by the x-pack, do you know how ?

You should be able to do it without x-pack security.

> If you are using X-Pack Security **or a proxy that provides an HTTPS endpoint for Elasticsearch** , you can configure Kibana to access Elasticsearch via HTTPS so communications between the Kibana server and Elasticsearch are encrypted.
