Usage
=====
There's a difference between JSON dashboard representation and models we us.
The lists used in JSON format [for rows, panels and target] were replaced by
dictionaries. This form of serialization allows better merging and overrides
of hierarchical data structures that dashboard models are.
The default format of Grafana dashboards with lists for rows, panels and targets.
.. code-block:: yaml
system_metrics:
title: graph
editable: true
hideControls: false
rows:
- title: Usage
height: 250px
panels:
- title: Panel Title
span: 6
editable: false
type: graph
targets:
- refId: A
target: "support_prd.cfg01_iot_tcpcloud_eu.cpu.0.idle"
datasource: graphite01
renderer: flot
showTitle: true
The modified version of Grafana dashboard format with dictionary declarations.
Please note that dictionary keys are only for logical separation and are not
displayed in generated dashboards.
