Grafana Cookbook

A stand-alone cookbook for Grafana. The 2.x versions of this cookbook work with the 2.x versions of Grafana. There is no backward compatibility for pre-2.0 versions of Grafana in the 2.x versions of this cookbook.

If you would like to configure pre-2.0 versions of Grafana, please use the 1.x branch and 1.x versions of this cookbook in the supermarket. There is a 1.x tag for PRs or Issues related to the 1.x branch.

Requirements

apt
yum
nginx

Attributes

As with most cookbooks, this one is hopefully flexible enough to be wrapped by allowing you to override as much as possible. Please let us know if you find a value that is not configurable.

For the ini configuration file, parameters can be specified as this: node['grafana']['ini'][SECTION_NAME][KEY] = [VALUE]. Here's an example:

default['grafana']['ini']['server']['protocol'] = 'http'

It is also possible to specify a comment that will precede the parameter and to comment the parameter as well.

default['grafana']['ini']['database']['ssl_mode'] = {
  comment: 'For "postgres" only, either "disable", "require" or "verify-full"',
  disable: true,

`node['grafana']['nginx']['template_cookbook']`	`'grafana'`	The cookbook containing said template

Usage

grafana::default

The default recipe will:

install Grafana via downloaded system package
install nginx to proxy the grafana application

If you want to install the Grafana package repository, update node['grafana']['install_type'] attribute to package. Additionally, the node['grafana']['version'] can be set to 'latest' so that the very latest Grafana build is used instead of the default release.

Nginx is used to proxy Grafana to run on port 80. If you don't want this cookbook to handle the webserver config simply set node['grafana']['webserver'] to '' in a role/environment/node somewhere.

NOTE
There is NO security enabled by default on any of the content being served.
If you would like to modify the nginx parameters, you should:

create your own cookbook i.e. my-grafana
copy the template for the webserver you wish to use to your cookbook
modify the template as you see fit (add auth, setup ssl)
use the appropriate webserver template attributes to point to your cookbook and template

Resources

It's important to note that Grafana must be running for these resources to be used because they utilitze Grafana's HTTP API. In your recipe, you'll simply need to make sure that you include the default recipe that starts Grafana before using these.

grafana_datasource

You can control Grafana dataSources via the grafana_datasource LWRP. Due to the varying nature of the potental data sources, the information used to create the datasource is consumed by the resource as a Hash (the source attribute). The examples should illustrate the flexibility. The full breadth of options are (or will be) documented on the Grafana website, however you can discover undocumented parameters by inspecting the HTTP requests your browser makes to the Grafana server.

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Default Value	Description
`host`	`String`	`'localhost'`	The host grafana is running on
`port`	`Integer`	`3000`	The port grafana is running on
`user`	`String`	`'admin'`	A grafana user with admin privileges
`password`	`String`	`'admin'`	The grafana user's password
`source_name`	`String`		The Data Source name as it will appear in Grafana. Defaults to the name unsed in the resource invocation.
`source`	`Hash`	`{}`	A Hash of the values to create the datasource. Examples below.
`action`	`String`	`create`	Valid actions are `create`, `create_if_missing`, and `delete`. Create will update the datasource if it already exists.

Examples

You can create a data source for Graphite as follows:

grafana_datasource 'graphite-test' do
  source(
    type: 'graphite',
    url: 'http://10.0.0.15:8080',
    access: 'direct'
  )
end

You can create a data source for InfluxDB 0.8.x and make it the default dashboard as follows:

grafana_datasource 'influxdb-test' do
  source(
    type: 'influxdb_08',
    url: 'http://10.0.0.10:8086',
    access: 'proxy',
    database: 'metrics',
    user: 'dashboard',
    password: 'dashpass',
    isdefault: true
  )
  action :create_if_missing
end

grafana_dashboard

Dashboards in Grafana are always going to be incredibly specific to the application, but you may want to be able to create a new dashboard along with a newly provisioned stack. This resource assumes you have a static json file that displays the information that will be flowing from the newly created stack.

This resource currently makes an assumption that the name used in invocation matches the name of the dashboard. This will obviously have limitations, and could change in the future. More documentation on creating Grafana dashboards via the HTTP API can be found here.

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Default Value	Description
`host`	`String`	`'localhost'`	The host grafana is running on
`port`	`Integer`	`3000`	The port grafana is running on
`user`	`String`	`'admin'`	A grafana user with admin privileges
`password`	`String`	`'admin'`	The grafana user's password
`source_name`	`String`		The extensionless name of the dashboard json file, and should match the dashboard title in the json (lower-cased and with hyphens for spaces) if `source` is not provided. Defaults to the name used in the resource invocation.
`source`	`String`	`nil`	If you would like to override the name of the json file, use this attribute.
`cookbook`	`String`	`nil`	The cookbook name to pull the file from if not this one
`path`	`String`	`nil`	Overrides `cookbook` and `source`. The absolute path to the json file on disk.
`overwrite`	`boolean`	`true`	Whether you want to overwrite existing dashboard with newer version or with same dashboard title
`action`	`String`	`create_if_missing`	Valid actions are `create`, `create_if_missing`, and `delete`. Create will update the dashboard, so be careful!

Examples

Assuming you have a files/default/simple-dashboard.json:

grafana_dashboard 'simple-dashboard'

If you'd like to use a my-dashboard.json with the title "title": "Test Dash":

grafana_dashboard 'test-dash' do
  source 'my-dashboard'
  overwrite false
end

If the dashboard you would like to import is already on disk with the title "title": "On Disk Dash":

grafana_dashboard 'on-disk-dash' do
  path '/opt/grafana/dashboards/local-dash.json'
end

grafana_organization

This resource will allow you to create organizations within Grafana. This resource is minimally viable and only supports the addition of a new organization by name. It does check to see if an organization of the same name already exists, but it does not currently support adding address or city information.

More information about creating Grafana organizations via the HTTP API can be found here.

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Default Value	Description
`host`	`String`	`'localhost'`	The host grafana is running on
`port`	`Integer`	`3000`	The port grafana is running on
`user`	`String`	`'admin'`	A grafana user with admin privileges
`password`	`String`	`'admin'`	The grafana user's password
`name`	`String`		The name of the organization you would like to add. Defaults to the name used in the resource invocation.
`action`	`String`	`create_if_missing`	Valid actions are `create_if_missing`. Delete and create are not currently supported.

Examples

Assuming you would like to create a new organization called Second Org.:

grafana_organization 'Second Org.'

grafana_user

This resource will allow you to create global users within Grafana. This resource is minimally viable and only supports the addition of global non-admin users. Contribution to the funcationality would be appreciated.

More information about creating Grafana users via the HTTP API can be found here.

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Default Value	Description
`host`	`String`	`'localhost'`	The host grafana is running on
`port`	`Integer`	`3000`	The port grafana is running on
`user`	`String`	`'admin'`	A grafana user with admin privileges
`password`	`String`	`'admin'`	The grafana user's password
`global`	`boolean`	`true`	Whether you want the user to be a global user. Currently only global `true` is supported.
`admin`	`boolean`	`false`	Whether or not the user should be a global admin. Currently only admin `false` is supported.

`full_name`	`String`		The common, human-readable name used for the user
`email`	`String`		The email address for this user
`passwd`	`String`		The password to use for this user
`action`	`String`	`create_if_missing`	Valid actions are `create_if_missing`. Delete and create are not currently supported.

Examples

Assuming you would like to create a new user...

grafana_user 'person2' do
  full_name 'John Smith'
  email 'test@example.com'
  passwd 'test123'
end

warning

When using the default's file installation, we've added checksum for package files
if you set the grafana version to something different than the default you will
also need set the checksum for the package you're expecting to use:

# Example if your Grafana version is different from the cookbook default
node['grafana']['version'] = '2.1.0'
# For debian platform family
node['grafana']['file']['checksum']['deb'] = 'b824c8358ff07f76f0d9eb35e9441f6f9e591819ad8bc70db4b0c904a8e7130e'
# For rhel platform family
node['grafana']['file']['checksum']['rpm'] = '1b436b286bd464e65eeb2a9b393da0986569fe483e1053b01c092b2e590d8399'
