Dashboard Design

Designing an endpoint for the javascript to build the dashboard from

Enpoint JSON

The endpoint will a starting point for the javascript to be generated from:

{
  "dashboard" : [
    {
      "type": "bar",
      "autoupdate" : "30",
      "title" : "Bar Metric",
      "size": "3x5"
    },
  ],
    }

The available types for widgets are going to be roughly:

• bar - bar chart
• pie - pie chart
• count - a counter
• sum - a counter that is summing
• average - an averaging metric

Backend Design

The backend design will be made up by several parts, there will be the gauge which provides the specific data source and type, the gauge cluster which is made up of gauges, and the dashboard which will be made up of a cluster or several clusters.
