Alternative web front-end for Munin

Project description

munin-plot

This is an alternative web front-end for Munin. It provides dynamic graphs while trying to maintain the Munin feature set. This is very much work in progress but it should be reasonably usable already.

It consist of a Python web service that exposes the Munin configuration as JSON and data as CSV and a JavaScript application that plots the information.

Installing munin-plot

The Python web service can be installed in a Python 3 virtualenv on the same machine that runs the Munin web interface:

$ virtualenv --python python3 /PATH/TO/munin-plot
$ /PATH/TO/munin-plot/bin/pip install munin-plot

The web service should be deployed in a WSGI server such as uWSGI or Apache mod_wsgi.

Example configuration snippet for deploying under Apache with mod_wsgi:

WSGIDaemonProcess munin-plot threads=5 maximum-requests=100 display-name=%{GROUP} python-home=/PATH/TO/munin-plot
AliasMatch ^/munin-plot/(graphs.*|data.*|dashboards)$ /PATH/TO/munin-plot/lib/python3.7/site-packages/muninplot/wsgi.py/$1
Alias /munin-plot /PATH/TO/munin-plot/lib/python3.7/site-packages/muninplot/static
<Directory /PATH/TO/munin-plot/lib/python3.7/site-packages/muninplot>
  <Files wsgi.py>
    Options ExecCGI
    SetHandler wsgi-script
    SetEnv DASHBOARDS_DIR /PATH/TO/munin-plot/dashboards
    WSGIProcessGroup munin-plot
  </Files>
  Header always set Content-Security-Policy "default-src 'self'; img-src 'self' data:; style-src 'self' 'unsafe-inline'; script-src 'self' 'unsafe-eval'; frame-ancestors 'none'"
</Directory>

Configuring munin-plot

Environment variables are used to configure the web service.

MUNIN_DBDIR : The directory (by default /var/lib/munin) that holds the Munin data files (i.e. datafile and .rrd files in sub directories).

DASHBOARDS_DIR: : A directory that contains JSON dashboard definitions. Dashboards can be exported from munin-plot and be manually copied to this directory.
