Custom installaion

[jan-denlillefarm]

Hi

I have some trouble installing pgwatch3 using manual installation (we are not able to use docker).

Everything seems to be fine until I reach the grafana stuff.

Following this guide:

https://pgwat.ch/latest/tutorial/custom_installation.html#detailed-steps-for-the-configuration-database-approach-with-postgres-sink

I have trouble understand chapter 8. Install grafana section e, where trying to import dashboard from:

/etc/pgwatch/grafana/postgres_dashboard.yml

It is failing importing because of the filetype. It is a yml file but grafana want's a json file.

What am I missing ? :-)

Best

Jan

Hello.

The postgres_dashboard.yml is for provisioning. If you only want to add dashboards manually, just copy the contents of grafana/postgres/v11 to the appropriate destination on your system. Alternatively, you can add dashboards one by one from the Grafana UI.
