This was specified in project-config but got stale there. We move the config here so that we can specify up to date jobs that make sense. Depends-On: https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/project-config/+/861482 Change-Id: I460d06b23639fae2d1b8898ed35a4e6914367a86

Overview
grafyaml takes descriptions of Grafana dashboards in YAML format, and
uses them to produce JSON formatted output suitable for direct import
into Grafana.
The tool uses the Voluptuous data validation library to ensure the input produces a valid dashboard. Along with validation, users receive the benefits of YAML markup such as comments and clearer type support.
For example, here is a minimal dashboard specification
dashboard:
time:
from: "2018-02-07T08:42:27.000Z"
to: "2018-02-07T13:48:32.000Z"
templating:
- name: hostname
type: query
datasource: graphite
query: node*
refresh: true
title: My great dashboard
rows:
- title: CPU Usage
height: 250px
panels:
- title: CPU Usage for $hostname
type: graph
datasource: graphite
targets:
- target: $hostname.Cpu.cpu_prct_usedgrafyaml can be very useful in continuous-integration
environments. Users can specify their dashboards via a normal review
process and tests can validate their correctness.
The tool can also take JSON manually exported from the Grafana interface and load it as a dashboard. This allows keeping dashboards that have been edited with the inbuilt editor externally version controlled.
A large number of examples are available in the OpenStack project-config repository, which are used to create dashboards on http://grafana.openstack.org.
