Chronograf

An Open-Source UI for Monitoring and Alerting your Infrastructure

Chronograf is an open-source web application written in go and react.js that is designed to simply and easily visualize your monitoring data and provide tools to create alerting and automation rules.

Features

  • High level infrastructure view and search
  • Application specific monitoring for:
    • System stats
    • InfluxDB
    • Docker Containers
    • Kubernetes
    • Redis
    • NSQ
    • MySQL
    • PostgreSQL
  • Kapacitor alert creation and tracking

Installation

We recommend installing Chrongraf using one of the pre-built packages. Then start Chronograf using:

  • service chronograf start if you have installed Chronograf using an official Debian or RPM package.
  • systemctl start chronograf if you have installed Chronograf using an official Debian or RPM package, and are running a distro with systemd. For example, Ubuntu 15 or later.
  • $GOPATH/bin/chronograf if you have built Chronograf from source.

Builds

  • Chronograf works with go 1.7.3, npm 3.10.7 and node v6.6.0. Additional version support of these projects will be implemented soon, but these are the only supported versions to date.
  • Chronograf requires Kapacitor 1.1 to create and store alerts.
  • To build assets and the go server, run make.
  • To run server either ./chronograf --port 8888 or make run
