How to use the plugin. - Githubissues

Hello @DifferentialOrange. I'm testing this plugin, without luck so far. Maybe is there something I'm doing wrong, would you guide me on how to use those plugins? If you can't, please let me know so I ask on 'grafonnet-lib' side.

I've followed: https://github.com/grafana/grafonnet-lib#user-content-adding-plugins-to-grafonnet

The overview.jsonnet is as follows:

local grafana = (import 'grafonnet/grafana.libsonnet')
              + (import 'grafonnet-status-panel/plugin.libsonnet')
              + (import 'grafonnet-polystat-panel/plugin.libsonnet');

The import is failing as follows:

grafonnet_1           | Generating overview.jsonnet
grafonnet_1           | RUNTIME ERROR: couldn't open import "grafonnet-status-panel/plugin.libsonnet": no match locally or in the Jsonnet library paths.
grafonnet_1           |        /input/overview.jsonnet:2:18-66 thunk <grafana>

grafonnet_1           |        /input/overview.jsonnet:33:1-10 
dashboards_grafonnet_1 exited with code 1

I'm importing the library here:

#!/usr/bin/env sh

set -e
echo "Generating dashboards"

for fp in $(ls /input); do
    echo "Generating $fp"
    export JSONNETPATH="/grafonnet-lib:/grafonnet-lib/grafonnet-polystat-panel:/grafonnet-lib/grafonnet-status-panel"
    /usr/local/bin/jsonnet /input/$fp -o /output/${fp%net}
done

I have the wish of building a similar plugin and sharing it for the polystatPanel Grafana chart: https://grafana.com/grafana/plugins/grafana-polystat-panel. Doing the work here: https://github.com/thelastpickle/grafonnet-polystat-panel. As you can see it's inspired/copied from yours, but I'm not sure how to use it.

You seem to be the first one in building a plugin extension for Grafonnet. Would you please help me understanding this one? I'd like to have this working and contribute with a working plugin as well :).

Thanks!
