metadash

A meta-dashboard for aggregating other dashboards, currently to merge multiple sensu servers into a single dashboard.

Here's a sample screenshot, but be warned, much of the functionality is incomplete (i.e. the entire top navbar)

setup

Create config.js in the root directory. For better or worse, this is currently an exported js object.

(function(exports){

    'use strict';
    exports.servers = [
        {
            slug: 'name1',
            host: 'sensu1.example.com',
        },
        {
            slug: 'name2',
            host: 'sensu2.example.com',
        }
    ];

    exports.links = {
        events : [
            {
                label: 'Urgent',
                query: '?status=2|3&silenced=0'
            },
            {
                label: 'Silenced',
                query: '?silenced=1'
            },
            {
                 label: 'You\'ve been warned.',
                 query: '?status=1'
            },
            {
                label: 'Everything',
                query: ''
            }
        ],
        clients : [
            {
                label: 'Load Balancers',
                query: '?filter=load_balancers'
            },
            {
                label: 'Frontends',
                query: '?filter=frontend'
            },
            {
                 label: 'DB Servers',
                 query: '?filter=postgres|cassandra'
            },
            {
                label: 'Everything',
                query: ''
            }
        ]            
    }

})(typeof exports === 'undefined'? this.sensu={}: exports);

Test the config with grunt dev server:

npm install grunt-cli -g
npm install bower -g
npm install
bower install
grunt server

Or to build a production release to the dist folder:

grunt build

Build scripts and artifacts are readily available on cloudbees: https://socrata-oss.ci.cloudbees.com/job/metadash/

For production, drop the config.js into the dist directory, and configure a webserver to serve it statically and proxy api requests to sensu-api. Here's an example nginx config:

proxy_cache_path /var/cache/nginx levels=2 keys_zone=SENSU:8m
                              max_size=100m inactive=5m;
server {
  listen 80;
  proxy_cache SENSU;
  proxy_cache_valid 200 302 20s;
  proxy_cache_valid 404 10s;
  location /name1/ {
     proxy_pass http://sensu1.example.com:4567 %>/;
  }
  location /name2/ {
     proxy_pass http://sensu2.example.com:4567 %>/;
  }
  location / {
    root /path/to/metadash/dist;
    try_files $uri /index.html;
  }
}
