Implementaiton questions #9

Closed pablos-here closed 2 years ago

Hi,

I have a few questions that I hope you may answer. :)

I'd like to inject some life into my RRD graphs. I've been collecting data for +10 years and I'd like to be able to make the static graphs more ... lively. :)

  1. Is the project abandoned or at a point that it is usable?

  2. If I look at the sample HTML (excerpt below), I believe that graphA is a server-side application that will write to stdout the results of an rrdtool graph call eh?

    <img class="rrd" data-src-template="graphA?start={{start}}&amp;end={{end}}" />

  3. I believe issue #7's problem is the OP is mistakenly supplying an RRD file name for graphA but really, they should have written a server-side application as mentioned above. Is that right?

Thanks so much!

Hmmm, I rigged a test and my assumption is wrong, graphA seems to be an actual graph.

I'm unclear how to connect the JavaScript with an RRD and how is the image generated.

I seem to have some fundamental questions.

I'd be grateful for any tips.

Thx!

This project is stable :) for it to work, you need a server which produces graphs as requested by the frontend ... with the JS loaded, your webpage will send requests for different graphs to your backend ...
