Run from master
If you want to build a package yourself, or contribute - Here is a guide for how to do that. You can always find
the latest master builds here
Dependencies
Building the backend
go get github.com/fingerpich/grafana-farsi
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/fingerpich/grafana-farsi
go run build.go setup
go run build.go build
Building frontend assets
For this you need nodejs (v.6+).
npm install -g yarn
yarn install --pure-lockfile
npm run build
To rebuild frontend assets (typescript, sass etc) as you change them start the watcher via.
npm run watch
Run tests
npm run test
Run tests in watch mode
npm run watch-test
Recompile backend on source change
To rebuild on source change.
go get github.com/Unknwon/bra
bra run
Open grafana in your browser (default: http://localhost:3000
) and login with admin user (default: user/pass = admin/admin
).
Dev config
Create a custom.ini in the conf directory to override default configuration options.
You only need to add the options you want to override. Config files are applied in the order of:
- grafana.ini
- custom.ini
In your custom.ini uncomment (remove the leading ;
) sign. And set app_mode = development
.
Running tests
- You can run backend Golang tests using "go test ./pkg/...".
- Execute all frontend tests with "npm run test"
Writing & watching frontend tests (we have two test runners)
- jest for all new tests that do not require browser context (React+more)
- Start watcher:
npm run jest
- Jest will run all test files that end with the name ".jest.ts"
- karma + mocha is used for testing angularjs components. We do want to migrate these test to jest over time (if possible).
- Start watcher:
npm run karma
- Karma+Mocha runs all files that end with the name "_specs.ts".
