export from specific local folder to grafana

[pahla1]

Hi all,

I have multiple grafana instances with many folders and wanna sync my folders from one dc to another. Can we have an option to import a folder from grafana at DC1 to my local folder dashboards/DC1 and then switch context to DC2 and export dashboards/DC1 to grafana at DC2? let me also say that I don't want to change output_path of dc2 to dashboards/DC1. I need it for example as an command line argument.

Thanks in advance.

Can I ask why you don't want to change the output folder? The only use case I have that is similar to yours is synching staging to prod or vice versa. I track the changes in git which is the reason for this tool (Also wizzy was no longer maintained). I simply have a staging.yml and prod.yml and point to each one accordingly. I find it less error prone than switching contexts around.

You already have an option to filter by folder on imports -f folder Name. So you could do something like.

gdg -c conf/dc1.yml importer -f foobar gdg -c conf/dc2.yml export -f foobar

Otherwise, this is a larger task than simply adding a CLI arg. It's a whole new concept being introduced to the app. Everything that it's doing right now is based on a single context.

If you want to d a PR i'm happy to look at it, but otherwise this likely will not happen for a while.
