Grafana is an open source, feature rich metrics dashboard and graph editor for Graphite, Elasticsearch, OpenTSDB, Prometheus and InfluxDB.
Head to docs.grafana.org and download the latest release.
If you have any problems please read the troubleshooting guide.
Be sure to read the getting started guide and the other feature guides.
If you want to build a package yourself, or contribute - Here is a guide for how to do that. You can always find the latest master builds here
- Go 1.10
- NodeJS LTS
go get github.com/grafana/grafana
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/grafana/grafana
go run build.go setup
go run build.go build
For this you need nodejs (v.6+).
To build the assets, rebuild on file change, and serve them by Grafana's webserver (http://localhost:3000):
npm install -g yarn
yarn install --pure-lockfile
npm run watch
Build the assets, rebuild on file change with Hot Module Replacement (HMR), and serve them by webpack-dev-server (http://localhost:3333):
yarn start
# OR set a theme
env GRAFANA_THEME=light yarn start
Note: HMR for Angular is not supported. If you edit files in the Angular part of the app, the whole page will reload.
Run tests
npm run jest
Run karma tests
npm run karma
To rebuild on source change.
go get github.com/Unknwon/bra
bra run
Open grafana in your browser (default: http://localhost:3000
) and login with admin user (default: user/pass = admin/admin
).
Create a custom.ini in the conf directory to override default configuration options. You only need to add the options you want to override. Config files are applied in the order of:
- grafana.ini
- custom.ini
In your custom.ini uncomment (remove the leading ;
) sign. And set app_mode = development
.
Execute all frontend tests
npm run test
Writing & watching frontend tests (we have two test runners)
- jest for all new tests that do not require browser context (React+more)
- Start watcher:
npm run jest
- Jest will run all test files that end with the name ".jest.ts"
- Start watcher:
- karma + mocha is used for testing angularjs components. We do want to migrate these test to jest over time (if possible).
- Start watcher:
npm run karma
- Karma+Mocha runs all files that end with the name "_specs.ts".
- Start watcher:
# Run Golang tests using sqlite3 as database (default)
go test ./pkg/...
# Run Golang tests using mysql as database - convenient to use /docker/blocks/mysql_tests
GRAFANA_TEST_DB=mysql go test ./pkg/...
# Run Golang tests using postgres as database - convenient to use /docker/blocks/postgres_tests
GRAFANA_TEST_DB=postgres go test ./pkg/...
