Grafana wishlist

Andreas.Motl · November 8, 2019, 11:45pm

Over at Wunschliste für Verbesserungen in Grafana - Benutzerschnittstelle / User interface / API - Hiveeyes, we started collecting things we would like to see within Grafana. The topics over there mostly revolved around Grafana Worldmap, however we also want to look beyond that.

See also Cherries from the Grafana Roadmap and beyond for things already in the pipeline of Grafana Labs.

Looking at Grafana’s variable interpolation machinery - the established

          /*
           * This regex matches 3 types of variable reference with an optional format specifier
           * \$(\w+)                          $var1
           * \[\[([\s\S]+?)(?::(\w+))?\]\]    [[var2]] or [[var2:fmt2]]
           * \${(\w+)(?::(\w+))?}             ${var3} or ${var3:fmt3}

          import {
            dateTimeAsIso,
            dateTimeAsIsoNoDateIfToday,
            dateTimeAsUS,

            getDateTimeAsLocalFormatNoDateIfToday,
            dateTimeFromNow,

            toClockSeconds,
            toDays,
            toDurationInDaysHoursMinutesSeconds,
            toDurationInHoursMinutesSeconds,
            toDurationInMilliseconds,
            toDurationInSeconds,
            toHours,
            toMicroSeconds,
            toMilliSeconds,

we think about whether interpolating things like ${__from:dateTimeAsIso} will soon be possible here.
