Prerequisites

  • docker
  • docker-compose

Instructions

  1. Download the repository using git clone (simple archive download will work too)
git clone https://github.com/HadesArchitect/GrafanaCassandraDatasource.git 
cd GrafanaCassandraDatasource
  1. Launch the project
docker-compose up -d
  1. Wait for Cassandra to start, it may take a bit

Check the status with the command docker-compose exec cassandra nodetool status | grep rack1. As soon as the output looks like UN 172.23.0.3 88.16 KiB ... (UN means UP and NORMAL), you are good to go

  1. Load sample data

docker-compose exec cassandra cqlsh -u cassandra -p cassandra -f ./test_data.cql

  1. Add the datasource
