Team Dashboard lets you visualize your team's metrics all in one place (see Screenshots). It is build to be shown on a big screen in your team's space.
It has built-in support for Graphite, Ganglia, Jenkins, Travis CI, Errbit, New Relic, Pingdom, Sensu and more and makes it really easy to add more data sources.
It is implemented as a Rails app and uses ActiveRecord to store your custom dashboards configuration.
Support via Team Dashboard Google Group
Lots of new features and bugfixes. This is (hopefully) the last release candidate!
Read the Changelog!
Please checkout the Changelog and read the Migration Guide.
Clone the repository:
git clone git://github.com/fdietz/team_dashboard.git
Run bundler:
bundle install
Create a database.yml from the example config. Note, that this will overwrite your existing configuration using MySQL:
cp config/database.example.yml config/database.yml
Create the database and run migrations:
rake db:create && rake db:migrate
There is an initial "Demo" source and sample dashboards provided. Generate these via:
rake populate
Start the Rails server:
rails s
or use unicon directly:
bundle exec unicorn -c config/unicorn.rb
If you want to run the tests locally, you will need to install PhantomJS
brew update && brew install phantomjs
Run the unit tests (ruby & js)
rake
System-wide configuration settings are done in either application.rb or with an environment variable.
For example when configuring graphite you can see the configuration settings in application.rb:
config.graphite_url = ENV['GRAPHITE_URL']
You can either change the configuration there or set the environment variable when starting the rails app:
GRAPHITE_URL=http://localhost:8080 rails s
All data sources reside in app/models/sources and provide source code documentation with further details.
A dashboard in Team Dashboard consists of multiple Widgets, which request data from a data source via AJAX request.
All widgets have a name, time interval in which to update themselves and a data source as a common configuration.
You can easily add your own data source plugins (Data Source Plugins Developer Guide) and implement custom widgets (Widget Developer Guide).
The graph widget shows a time series line or area graph. Use it to show number of visits on your web page or number of currently online users and follow-up on trends.
It currently supports Graphite and Ganglia.
Shows the current integer value provided by the data source, the percentage of change compared to the previous value and an optional label. Use it to show for the example the number of errors on specific systems or the number of users.
It currently supports a New Relic, Hockey App, http proxy data source and Issue counter for Jira Filters.
Shows the current boolean value provided by the data source and an optional label. Use it to show for example the success of a Jenkins build or the health status of a system.
It currently supports Pingdom, arbitrary shell commands and a http proxy data source.
It is similar to the Boolean Widget. It is designed to show the alerts of your system. The idea behind was introducing a possibility for linking the dashboard with the Sensu monitoring framework and displaying the alerts and the respective messages.
It currently supports Sensu.
Shows the current build status for a given project.
It currently supports Jenkins and Travis CI.
Shows the number of unresolved errors in your exception tracker, and when the last error occurred. It currently supports Errbit.
Shows data in a table format with an overall status (like the alert widget) and individual row status with a label and a value.
It currently supports using a json file as input.
Thanks go to Martin Tschischauskas and Marno Krahmer who worked with me on the first iteration which was build as part of a XING Hackathon Project.
