This document describes how to create data sources.
Data sources are represented by the GrafanaDataSource custom resource. Examples can be found
in deploy/examples/datasources.
A single GrafanaDataSource resource can contain a list of data sources.
To get a quick overview of the GrafanaDataSource you can also look at the API docs.
The following properties are accepted in the spec:
- name: The filename of the data source that gets mounted into a volume in the grafana instance. Not to be confused
with
metadata.name. - datasources: A list of data source definitions. Check the official documentation.
A data source accepts all properties
listed here, but does not
support apiVersion and deleteDatasources.
For custom datasources provided by plugins, use the customJsonData and customSecureJsonData fields instead of jsonData and secureJsonData.
To see how to install datasource plugins, see Plugins.
