Made merge flag configurable #8
Conversation
|
This pull request doesn't fix anything. There was a behavior with Grafana for Monaca/InfluxDB 0.8 which displayed multiple metrics. With the support for InfluxDB 0.9 in Monasca the API is no longer capable of returning multiple metrics for the measurements and statistics queries. However, we want the old behavior to work. The proper fix is to query the metrics API first and get a list of metrics back and then query the measurements or statics API for each individual metric and render it in Grafana. |

This pull request was intended to make the merge flag configurable so that grafana could continue being used as it was before the merge flag change was introduced. It sounds like what you're saying is that grafana was not meeting your needs prior to the introduction of the merge flag and requires additional changes. If this is the case we would appreciate being involved in any discussions about these changes since they sound rather large and we would like to preserve the functionality we need in addition to your requirements. |

It does seem like the behavior Roland is describing is beyond the scope of this change, or perhaps an issue with monasca-api when the merge flag isn't passed? I don't recall the specifics of how grafana and monasca-api worked with influxdb 0.8, since we were talking straight to influxdb with that version. Did the dashboard formerly make the set of multiple calls you are describing? That seems inefficient as opposed to letting the db/api do the combining without multiple REST calls? Maybe I'm not understanding the issue here too... |
