Is this project abandoned? about mongodb-grafana HOT 16 OPEN

To those monitoring this thread: I investigating forking this and restarting development, but I found that there have been several improvements to Grafana's plugin API int he intervening time, notably there is now a feature that means there is no longer a requirement for the proxy server. As such, I have started an entirely new plugin using the new plugin API and the official mongodb driver library, which you can find here: https://github.com/meln5674/grafana-mongodb-community-plugin . I have only so far re-implemented timeseries queries, as well as made the credentials into secret fields so they are not leaked. I have a project that needs a plugin like this, so there will be semi-regular development for the near future.

As @cptechie did I also published a docker container, but in my case it is the grafana docker image with the plugin preinstalled in the container: https://github.com/ajeje93/grafana-mongodb-docker

Another thing I noticed yesterday is that the proxy server does not work on node 17.
I did not noticed the leak that @KristapsT found mainly because I only used it for hobby projects and not for production environments.

I noticed there is an overlapping between MongoDB official enterprise plugin and this one... someone knows how can I solve it? Maybe that's the reason why it does not work...

Yeah you should rename the plugin in file plugin.json (dist folder) to make it work because it has the same id of the official one.

I want to restart this project for every coder~

from mongodb-grafana.

I have started using this plugin today. I am relatively impressed that it still works, but much more improvements can be made.

I have published a docker image for this project, mostly so I can rapidly deploy this on many servers. Feel free to use it and check it out.

It is as simple as below
docker run --name mongo_proxy --network host -d cptechie/mongodb_grafana

Of if you rather not have --network host:
docker run --name mongo_proxy --network host -d cptechie/mongodb_grafana

Much less time consuming than installing it locally or waiting for a custom Dockerfile to build the image.

It works, but there are many issues that stop me from using this.

The main being that it leaks mongodb credentials to browser in plain text when you are inspecting queries in dashboard.

hi guys
which version of Grafana do you use?
I tried with Grafana v8.4.5 and it does not work :(

I used the test values given in the main readme:

• MongoDB URL: mongodb://rpiread:[email protected]:27017,rpi-sensor-data-shard-00-01-ifxxs.mongodb.net:27017,rpi-sensor-data-shard-00-02-ifxxs.mongodb.net:27017/test?ssl=true&replicaSet=rpi-sensor-data-shard-0&authSource=admin
• MongoDB Database: rpi

I tried also with another MongoDB URL but nothing.

I deployed everything to k8s v.1.21.x, I installed mongodb-grafana plugin manually, here below info about it

please help!! :)

Hi all,

I am heavy user of the plugin (and my startup) and actually it still works good also with the latest grafana versions. Some functions don't work unfortunately such as alerting.

Would be great if this project could be re-started. I am also willing to sponsor some development with some modest contributions. PM me if you are interested.

@JamesOsgood, thanks a lot for building it! Would you consider renewing the plugin for sponsorship? Contact me on discord if you interested (Plyum#1720)

@ajeje93 thanks for your suggestion, unfortunately I'm not able to make it work :(
I keep receiving the message Bad gateway
Any idea?

from mongodb-grafana.

@bygui86 not sure if this helps or not, but I used to get the same error because I skipped this part of installation

After I started the mongodb proxy server everything worked correctly for me

from mongodb-grafana.

@soringabriel Thanks a lot for the suggestion!
I missed completely that part! I never run the proxy server :(
As soon as I can I will try again

from mongodb-grafana.

We don't want to buy an enterprise plugin ;)
If you need assistance to get everything working again, just let us know how.

@meln5674 that's amazing! thanks a lot for the effort! I will try it soon :)
