Overview

Gitana is a lightweight application that will help you sync Grafana dashboards from a Git repository to Kubernetes ConfigMap and leverages the dashboard sidecar on the Grafana helm chart that provisions dashboard ConfigMaps created by Gitana into Grafana.

Sync Command Flags

The sync command pulls the Grafana dashboards from a Git repository and foreach dashboard it will creates a config map for that dashboard:

Building from source

To build Gitana from source code, first ensure that you have a working Go environment with version 1.16 or greater installed.

To build the source code you can use the make build, which will compile in the assets so that Gitana can be run from anywhere:

$ mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/gitana
    $ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/gitana
    $ git clone https://github.com/nicolastakashi/gitana.git
    $ cd gitana
    $ make build
    $ ./gitana sync <args>

The Makefile provides several targets:

build*: build the gitana fmt*: format the source code vet*: check the source code for common errors
