Grafana installation

Grafana is not required but it displays the data that got gathered and stored in InfluxDB.

A complete installation example is available with the docker-compose.yml file.

Docker Compose

version: '3.8'
services:
  grafana:
    image: grafana/grafana-oss
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - '3000:3000'
    volumes:
      - ./grafana-storage:/var/lib/grafana # after start: sudo chown 472:472 grafana-storage 

Create a new Data source

1. In settings create a new data source to connect to the InfluxDB bucket npmgrafstats. Select InfluxDB/flux. You need a read API token in InfluxDB to use it.
2. Import or upload a Dashboard. You can from Grafana using the ID 18826. You can also upload it manually using the NPM Map Dashboard.json file. Select the beforehand created data source to be used.
