This proposes a new flow for developing the dashboards, where instead of managing them inside
grafana.db
, they are provisioned from a directory containing the dashboard jsons. This avoids conflicts in thegrafana.db
and makes changes more reviewable. When editing a dashboard, this dialog is now shown:So you can no longer directly save the dashboard, but you have to copy paste it back into the file. Grafana listens for changes in the file and will update the live dashboard.
This also includes the script I used to pull the existing dashboards (don't be impressed, ChatGPT wrote it). It might prove useful again if we need to pull dashboards from the cloud through the Grafana API to commit them back to this repo.
