Incorrect Docker Hub documentation regarding Graphite Datasource

Open tlhunter opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

The documentation on Docker Hub is incorrect: https://hub.docker.com/r/kamon/grafana_graphite/

The docs state that one should add localhost:8080 as a data source, when one should actually add localhost:81.

Thanks @tlhunter, I had been looking for the connection port without much luck.

Thanks @tlhunter, I've eventually figured this out on my own, but wasn't sure how to add datasource properly, it took me a while.

It would be great if: "Using the Dashboards" section describes what actually user need to put in order for Grafana to connect to Graphite.

Note that the http protocol needs to be put as a prefix. This might be obvious, but I've assumed that no protocol would do, but it doesn't.

Correct: http://localhost:81 anything else, might not work.
