Simple dashboard example for Grafana

Hi!

I've created a simple dashboard for Grafana using the data from the docker image (https://hub.docker.com/r/xperimental/netatmo-exporter).
https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/13672

Feel free to copy it or reference directly if you want to link in the readme.

Thanks for the contribution, I've added a link to the dashboard in the readme.

I have a few suggestions for improvements to the dashboard:

  • Provide a variable to select the station to display, in case the user has more than one.
  • Use aggregations on the queries, so that you really only get one series for each module if that is what you want to display, for example avg(netatmo_sensor_temperature_celsius) by (module) for the temperature panel. This avoids having multiple series or non-contiguous series in case a different label changes, for example due to an IP change on the exporter.
  • In my version of the dashboard I have thresholds set on panels where there are "known-good" values. In the CO2 panel I have marked < 1000ppm as green and > 2000ppm as red and in the humidity panel I have set values < 40% and > 60% as yellow.

So, apparently Grafana is being "logical" about atmospheric pressure, so it will always convert 1000 millibar to 1 bar. So to get proper display here, you have to label the graph "millibars" and set the unit to "none"...
