Description

Problem

Not all elastic images are compatible with the ingest.geoip.downloader.enabled environment. We use a custom image which produces the following error

unknown setting [ingest.geoip.downloader.enabled] please check that any required plugins are installed, or check the breaking changes documentation for removed settings

Solution

Add an option in the constructor of ElasticsearchContainer, or a separate method, to prevent setting the ingest.geoip.downloader.enabled environment.

Benefit

A broader range of custom elastic images will be supported.

Alternatives

For now, we use the following workaround

.WithEnvironment("ingest.geoip.downloader.enabled", "")

Start at the ElasticsearchContainer entry point and locate where the ingest.geoip.downloader.enabled environment is configured. Check how constructor or separate-method options are exposed, then verify that custom images can omit the setting while existing behavior remains unchanged.
