Hello,

I am deploying elasticsearch v7.3.0 according to the following documentation -  
[https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-quickstart.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/cloud-on-k8s/current/k8s-quickstart.html)

However, in the docker image for elasticsearch, the plugin `repository-s3` is not installed. All the required plugins for snapshot was by default installed in v `v7.1.0`

I tried to create a custom Dockerfile to install this plugin but it did not work for me as I believe the init containers prepares the environment for elasticsearch which I am missing in my Dockerfile.

Can anyone please tell me if there is any plan to install this plugin in future versions? If not, how can I install the `repository-s3` plugin in the "[docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.3.0](http://docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:7.3.0)" image?

While we installed a couple extra plugins in past versions (ingest-user-agent and ingest-geoip), those have been moved into modules. AFAIK we have never packaged the s3 repository plugin in docker. I'm not sure how you got this before.

You should be able to [extend the official docker image](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/docker.html#_c_customized_image). Can you explain more what errors you get when attempting this?

Hi @rjernst,

I am not sure what the problem was last time. But according to the link you provided, everything worked fine while creating a custom docker image.

Thank you for all the help.
