  • Add contact points (#289)
  • Add basic alerting resources (#286)
  • Add support for library panels (#282)
  • Major new way of specifying creds for multiple Grafana instances: contexts (#271)
  • -d no longer required for directories (Grizzly can work it out) (#259)
  • Uses new Grafana OpenAPI golang client (#262)

Bug fixes:

  • Unprepare dashboards on create (#281)
  • Update folders unconditionally (#280)
  • Invalid target (-t) should not panic (#254)
  • Don't swallow YAML parse errors (#246)

0.2.1 (2023-02-17)

This release is resolves a number of security vulnerabilities.

  • Updates to Golang 1.19.1 (#224) thanks @rhowe!
  • Update Jsonnet/Jsonnet Bundler versions (#231)
  • Revert to external cortextool, simplifying security patch maintenance (#231)
  • Updated go dependencies (#234)
  • Updates the Docker image to a newer version, bringing in updated versions of openssl and zlib

0.2.0 (2022-05-04)

This release provides fixes and improvements over 0.2.0-beta-3

  • Add missing space in log message (#212)
  • Improve jsonnet parser for alerts/rules (#211)
  • Fix access to Grafana without any auth (#210)
  • Update jsonnet to 0.18.0 (#198)
  • Modify requests to send authorization header (#197)
  • Fix docker arm build (#194)
  • Documenting the use of a proxy with grizzly (#193)
  • Docker: add jsonnet, jsonnetfmt and jsonnet-bundler (#192)

0.2.0-beta3 (2021-10-28)

This release provides fixes and improvements over 0.2.0-beta-2

  • Set dashboard folder to a default value when it is undefined (#183)
  • Add debug logging for most commands(#188)
  • Correctly match synthetic monitoring locally-generated IDs to currently deployed checks (#189)

0.2.0-beta2 (2021-10-11)

This release provides fixes to problems introduced by 0.2.0-beta1.

  • Improved error messages when the referenced Jsonnet file does not exist (#170)
  • Previously, lib and vendor directories were looked for relative to the Jsonnet script. This makes it hard to work with larger Jsonnet codebases. This has changed to looking for these directories in the current directory. Ideally, we would have a concept of the "root" of a code tree, and locate lib and vendor directories there. In lieu of that, using the current directory is better. (#172)
  • Documentation corrections for grr pull and Synthetic Monitoring (#174 and #173)
  • Fixed grr pull so that it correctly pulls dashboards in the General folder.

0.2.0-beta1 (2021-09-23)

Much has changed in Grizzly, including the switch to Kubernetes style resources.

This version needs some testing (hence the beta label) and some work on the new tests we've added.

Here's some of the things that are new:

  • Targets now use dots consistently (#163)
  • Handlers are applied in a consistent order, so that folders get created before dashboards (#162)
  • Listen feature (temporarily) removed - Grafana API is not yet stable enough for this (#161)
  • Switch Jsonnet examples to use a Grizzly library (#157)
  • Addition of fuller documentation
  • CortexTool no longer required for interacting with hosted Prometheus
  • watch now watches directories recursively (#122)
  • Grizzly can now list remote resources (grr list -r) (#120)
  • Folders are now first-class citizens (#115)
  • Grizzly can pull remote resources to local filesystem (grr pull) (#110)
  • Grizzly can now be configured with YAML instead of Jsonnet (#100)
  • Resources are now consumed as Kubernetes style objects (#94). Hidden resources in Jsonnet are now deprecated (#94)

0.1.1 (2021-08-02)

Add binary for Darwin Arm64 arch

0.1.0 (2021-02-27)

This is a substantial release.

Multiple 'providers'

The most significant change is that Grizzly now supports multiple 'providers'. It can now target multiple observability systems, focused on those offered by Grafana Labs. That is, you can now use Grizzly to manage:

  • Grafana dashboards
  • Grafana datasources
  • Prometheus rules with Grafana Cloud Metrics or Cortex Ruler
  • Blackbox checks with Grafana Synthetic Monitoring.

listen

Grafana 7.3 has a feature that informs all browsers that have a dashboard open when a user saves that dashboard. All instances of that dashboard are then automatically reloaded. To use this feature, you must enable the live feature flag on Grafana itself.

Grizzly takes advantage of this feature with its grr listen command. Here, Grizzly will connect to Grafana, and wait for changes to a specific dashboard. When that dashboard changes, it writes the JSON for that dashboard to a local file. The Grizzly user can then commit that file to version control (e.g. Git) and we have the beginnings of a version controlled workflow for Grafana Dashboards.

Jsonnet 0.17

Grizzly now uses Jsonnet 0.17 (up from 0.15.1).

Adopting Kubernetes Style Naming

Naming of resources has been confusing in Grizzly for some time. Is it a 'dashboard', a 'grafana-dashboard', etc. In this release, we have opted for following the Kubernetes approach for naming resources, with there being a group, a version and a kind. At present, all resource types (dashboards, prometheus rules, etc) are within a single group and version (grizzly.grafana.com/v1alpha1).

Other improvements:

  • Better grr show pager, with more intuitive key bindings
  • Targets can now include globs, e.g. -t Dashboard.*
  • diff has switched to showing the whole resource to a unified diff

0.0.1 (2020-07-31)

Initial release of Grizzly. Although increasingly used, this is still alpha code. Please help us test it, and provide us feedback.

Initial version provides support for interacting with Grafana and its dashboards.
