I notice that [https://github.com/bleskes/sense](https://github.com/bleskes/sense) has a message saying "The  
development of Sense has moved into Elasticsearch Marvel".

Does this mean that no further development will happen on github? I.e. if  
the Marvel team find bugs in sense will the fixes be pushed to the sense on  
github, and if I create a pull request on github will my fix find its way  
into the version of sense included in Marvel?

Regardless of the answer to the above, does the code on github have any  
kind of licence? Even without Marvel, sense is still a useful tool.

Thanks.

I just forked it i case it goes away. I haven't built a Chrome extension in  
years. Let me re-figure out how to do it and update my fork with  
build/local installation instructions.

The lack of a license might be problematic since default copyright  
provisions apply: [Redirecting…](http://choosealicense.com/no-license/)

Yeah, I cloned it locally in case it disappears and it seems to work  
perfectly well standalone or as an elasticsearch plugin - IMO it doesn't  
really need to be a chrome extension. But I guess its usefulness if limited  
if dev has stopped and the auto-complete isn't kept up-to-date with the  
elasticsearch api.

Also if I recommended my clients used it (which I would, because it's one  
of the better rest front ends for ES I've come across because of the  
auto-complete) then they'd want to know whether they were actually allowed  
to use it i.e. what licence it is.

I would have suggested opening an issue on Github to clarify the license,  
but issues are disabled on the repo. I agree that Sense is a fantastic  
tool. I deploy apps using the Java API, but I formulate my thoughts and  
queries beforehand with Sense. Beforehand I was just using straight curl  
commands.

Boaz is a regular on the mailing list, he probably will chime in soon.

Hi Tim, Ivan,

Sense, the chrome extension, was started a hobby project of mine. I did it  
in my spare time - I actually started it to prove it can be done in a  
weekend ;). As you know Sense is part of Marvel now where it will be  
professionally developed and get way more time and love. The github repo is  
not maintained anymore and the code as published on GitHub will not be  
developed further. I've updated the readme to make that more clear.

As Tim noted, the Chrome extension has known bugs and does not support all  
of 1.0's features (like Aggregations). Since bug fixes are all going  
forward in Marvel, I've decided to remove the plugin from the Chrome Web  
Store so new users will not have a bad initial experience.

I (and many others) am always happy to answer any questions/issue regard  
Marvel on the mailing list. If you find any issue, please post it and it  
will be picked up. I know you both know this as we interacted before, but I  
wanted to say again for anyone else that might read this in the future.  
Cheers,  
Boaz

Boaz,

Sense is a must-have tool for any developer playing with Elasticsearch, at  
least in my opinion. I use it daily to quickly sketch and test modeling  
ideas, or just to prove a point. This is also the first thing I ask my  
customers to install whenever I give on-site consults.

I'd ask you and Elasticsearch to continue releasing Sense as a chrome  
plugin that we can install and use. Even if it gets updated less  
frequently, it's still an awesome tool and 80% is better than nothing.

You can't rely on having Marvel installed for using Sense - it's an  
additional install step, and many remote staging/prod clusters don't have  
it installed. Sense is really great as a client-side independent thing.

You can quote me on that: working with Elasticsearch is not the same  
without Sense available as a Chrome plugin.

For your consideration,

--

+1 for keeping the Chrome plugin on the Web Store, perhaps with a

The Chrome plugin integration (or other x-platform executable of any kind)

Requiring a Marvel download kinda beats this purpose.

And doing wget && tar && open isn't x-platform, nor easy.

+1 for Sense standalone packaging  
+1 for Sense in Chrome Web Store

Sense is used here all the time, it's essential.

I have also forked the code in case Sense goes away, hoping for a FOSS  
license.

Not that I'm fluid in writing browser plugins, but if I find time, I am not  
afraid of the learning curve.

@kimchy the whole reason for me asking these questions is that sometimes a  
customer is using elasticsearch but they don't (yet) have a support  
contract, but don't consider themselves "in development" either, and thus  
wouldn't allow me to use Marvel. Yes, there are other tools for poking  
around, but sense is invaluable for constructing complicated queries etc  
quickly. In this situation they wouldn't let me install a chrome plugin  
either, but sense works nicely as an elasticsearch plugin too.

So, if sense (the abandoned version on github) had some kind of permissive  
licence, I could turn up on customer site and use sense to poke around.  
Ideally, it would have a licence like AL2 which would allow me to modify it  
if necessary.

I realise that you don't want updates pushed back to the version of sense  
on github because those changes are helping you to make money from Marvel,  
I understand that. But if the abandoned version of sense did have an  
appropriate licence, it would allow us to use the current version - it's  
still useful even if it's not kept up to date. I might even be tempted to  
try and keep it up to date in my spare time. But clearly I can't do this  
unless it has a licence that allows me to do it.

Glad to see I'm not the only person thinking along these lines.

I personally do not require an open source license for Marvel/Sense, but I  
would like to see an explicit clarification about the use of Marvel in this  
scenario. Marvel does require a license to use and that would apply to any  
of its subsystems. Then again, Sense does not have a license, which means  
its use is also somewhat restricted.

Sense is an excellent tool and users dependency on the tool is quite  
apparent from this thread. 🙂

I haven't packaged a Chrome plugin in about 3 years. Not only has my memory  
faded, but I would assume the mechanism has changed in our fast changing  
world of development. It would be a fun exercise to attempt to do it again.

Cheers,  
Ivan

Sense started as a weekend project, and Boaz did not place a license on it. As you mentioned, this license effectively applies: [Redirecting…](http://choosealicense.com/no-license/). We consulted our lawyers, who specialize in open source, and changing the license to open source one is complex, expensive, and requires a lot of resources. The reason is that its not only getting the committers agreement, but also reaching all possible users and have them agree to it (or at least showing big investment in trying to do so, + a rather large time window to allow for people to object).

When Boaz created Sense, he was not employed by Elasticsearch. Obviously any project started by our employees has a clear license (as you can notice with the many projects we created).

Regarding Marvel:

- You are only required to pay for it when used in production.
- You don't have to be a support customer of Elasticsearch the company, you can buy a license for Marvel easily on the web. We made it super cheap since we think its something that a lot of people will find benefit from.

Hi,  
Since Marvel requires a license for production usage, does this mean in  
order to use the Marvel bundled Sense against a production instance  
requires you to buy a license?

I just got out of a meeting where I told a bunch of people to go download  
sense off the chrome store. Whoops 🙂

Thanks!  
Paul

People can try and use marvel and thus sense for free in their dev environment. If they want to use it with a production cluster they need a license for that cluster. It doesn't matter how many developers are using it.

If it is a matter of paying for Sense, I would vote for a paid chrome extension at a reasonable price so people who need sense can purchase it independently from marvell

This worked perfectly (except the "open" bit since my Konsole's file  
handling isn't quite set up).

Worth putting these instructions on the sense repo, Boaz? Obviously with  
note wrt Marvel usage on production clusters, just link to  
[Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/overview/marvel/) . The news it's rolled into  
Marvel is already there.

I am introducing somebody to ES, I'd really rather that they didn't simply  
use Postman or similar REST clients just yet. The worst part of my initial  
ES learning curve was exactly that, learning to construct the query and  
mapping objects correctly and learning what goes where when I wanted  
something done quickly. The learning process could have been sped up  
significantly by the Sense autocompletion feature.

+1 on that it's not x-platform, but as it's part of a commercial product  
now it's up to the ES team to decide how much time they can dedicate to  
packaging this tool neatly outside of that product.

Greetings,  
Emanuil

Hi Emanuil,

Indeed one of the things Senses does well is help you get started with ES.  
I'd argue that for someone new, there is nothing simpler than just  
installing a plugin on their dev setup. Actually, with Marvel they will  
also gain some other insights into what's going on.

Btw - Marvel is also packed as a zip which anyone can get by pointing a  
browser at  
[https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/marvel/marvel-latest.zip](https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/marvel/marvel-latest.zip)(which  
is documented) , unpack it using whatever and open the html files.
