Make packages also available for Ubuntu Trusty/Xenial? #7

Closed Apollon77 closed 8 years ago

Apollon77 commented 8 years ago

Hey,

after searching for a current Grafana on ARMHF platform in deb package format I found your page. I use Ubuntu Xenial/Trusty at the moment instead of Debian.

Do you see a chance to also make the packages available for that? Or can I directly use e.g. the Jessie package? I just found out that Xenial seems tobe based on Debian Stretch, so what about packages for Stretch ? :-)) ...

try this v3.1.1 release. I think it could work. I am pretty sure package I flagged for wheezy or jessie will at least have a problem with phantomjs related features (see here and the other README.md files in wheezy/ and jessie/ for details). I change the phantomjs binary in the linked release which should help having a more portable package.

Please, tell me if it works for you.

Will try the next days, thank you!

Made a quick test with docker for ubuntu xenial and trusty : it is working. Just take care to install dependencies libfontconfig and libpng12-0. On debian stretch, it is also working but install of libpng12-0 is not as easy since debian moved to libpng16. So you would have to import it from jessie. Nevertheless, this doesn't seems to create conflict. And, by the way, you can also install docker.

I also thought about the docker version ... don't know if this ould create overhead on my CubieTruck :-) directly installed feels also ok when compatibe ... will try late today finally

Without further update, I close this. Any feedback is welcomed.

Sorry for my "muting" but had installed it on a wheezy system ;-)

But now I have the real need to install on Ubuntu xenial ... so which v4 I should try The Jessie one?

fg2it commented 7 years ago

Starting with v3.1.1, there are no specific build for a distro. So, you only have to select the grafana version and the target raspberry pi version. I made some tests and last release works fine on ubuntu/xenial and yakkety. See the new faq if you need details.

Thank you, I tried the Docker version and have to say: works great (beside the plugin installing did not worked, but I could install them using "docker exec" ... :-) So I will use that in the next time I think :-)

@Apollon77 Could you provides details on what had failed ? Was it the pluging install from the docker cli ? What was the plugin ?
