This panel plugin provides a D3-based multistat panel for Grafana 3.x/4.x/5.x.
A hexagon is created for each metric received, with the ability to group metrics into a composite metric, and display the triggered state of the composite.
This plugin supports autoscaling for best-fit sizing of each polygon to the panel size. When the complete text cannot be displayed, only tooltips are active.
Specify the desired number of columns and rows, or select Autosize to allow the plugin to calculate a "best fit" for the size of the panel.
Max # of columns to create
Max # rows to create NOTE: if both columns and rows are set, only rows*columns will be displayed, generally one or none should be set.
Set a limit on number of hexagons to be displayed, set to 0 for no limit.
Set the size of the polygon to a fixed size, or select auto-size for "best fit".
Set the font to be used for Tooltips

Hovering over a hexagon shows the metrics that comprise the displayed state. For composites this will expand members of the composite.
This shows creation of composites, where you select which metrics comprise the composite.
This shows composites configured for GPU 0,1,2,3, and non-grouped metrics from GPU4-7.
Template variables are available in the clickThroughUrl setting, specified by using ${varname}. They can also be passed to another dashboard by appending var-VARNAME=value to the url
/dasboard/xyz?var-VARNAME=${VARNAME}
Each polygon represents either a single metric, or a composite metric
An example drilldown clickthrough url can be specified like this:
dashboard/db/drilldown?var-HOSTNAME=${__cell_name}
NOTE: Metrics are sorted using the global options "Sorting" settings. Global filters are also applied before dereferencing is performed.
The name and value of a polygon can be referenced using the following syntax:
- Metric Name:
${__cell_name} - Metric Value:
${__cell} - Metric Raw Value:
${__cell:raw}syntax. By default values are URI encoded. Use this syntax to disable encoding
The names and values of a composite polygon can be referenced using the following syntax:
- Composite Name:
${__composite_name} - Metric Name:
${__cell_name_n} - Metric Value:
${__cell_n} - Metric Raw Value:
${__cell_n:raw}syntax. By default values are URI encoded. Use this syntax to disable encoding
This plugin relies on Grunt/NPM/Bower, typical build sequence:
npm install
bower install
grunt
For development, you can run:
grunt watch
The code will be parsed then copied into "dist" if "jslint" passes without errors.
A docker-compose.yml file is include for easy development and testing, just run
docker-compose up
Then browse to http://localhost:3000

Grafana TestData is not enabled by default. To enable it, first navigate to the Plugins section, found in your Grafana main menu. Click the Apps tabs in the Plugins section and select the Grafana TestData App. (Or navigate to http://your_grafana_instance/plugins/testdata/edit to go directly there). Finally click the enable button to enable.
This panel is based on this D3 example:
