Dashing widget to show the current value of a graphite gauge metric and a sparkline of the metric over certain number of days.
This is a modified clone of https://github.com/edasque/dashing-graphite-text-widget.git
- Download Moment.js, jquery.sparklines.js and lodash.min.js and place them in the
assets/javascriptsfolder - Finally create a dashboard and use the Gauge widget. Don't forget to set your title, graphite_host and metric:
<li data-row="1" data-col="1" data-sizex="1" data-sizey="1">
<div data-view="Gauge" data-metric="stats.gauges.my.queue_entries.total"
data-title="Queue Entries" data-graphite_host="http://my.graphite.host"data-unit="entries" data-colors="0:#96bf48,100:#ff9618,500:#d26771"></div>
</li>There are several data attributes to configure the widget
| name | mandatory | description |
|---|---|---|
| data-view | yes | Fix name of the widget view: Gauge |
| data-graphite_host | yes | URL to your graphite host |
| data-metric | yes | Metric of the graphite values in dot-notation |
| data-title | no | Title of the widget |
| data-colors | no | List of limit:color values for colouring the widget |
| data-unit | no | Text placed behind the number in the widget |
This attribute takes a comma separated list of limit:colour values. To determine the background colour of the widget a gradient colour will be calculated that fits the current ghraphite value.
The example above will colourize a value of 0 with a light green, a value of 100 with orange and everything between 0 and 100 will be calculated as gradient between green and orange. Each value above the upper limit given will be coloured in the last colour given.
The first entry should start with limit 0 (assuming that gauge values don't go below zero).
