Make pdf graphs more understandable
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

We have a dashboard for electron usage[1], but the graphs are not self-explanatory yet and the board is hard to find. Thus, please:

  • Add the dashboard to the TCB Team board on grafana
  • For each (Group) of graphs, explain what they are showing (e.g. are the accumulative, stacked...). Also, note that the default is currently electron and note all the wikis where the service is deployed + everything else the keen reader should know
  • Is there a differentiation between wikis and between single and multiple pages that are printed? If yes, where can it be found and can you link that board to the other one + the TCB team board as well?

Event Timeline

So, grafana has been updated and you can now add descriptions to graphs in dashboards :)
I want to set some time aside to go through ALL WMDE dashboard on grafana and add descriptions.

Addshore added a project: User-Addshore.
Addshore moved this task from Unsorted 💣 to Back Burner 🏛️ on the User-Addshore board.
Addshore moved this task from Proposed to Sprint ready on the WMDE-TechWish board.

I have added a bunch of info to the corner of each graph on the dashboard (and all other TCB related dashboards).
Please review and see if anything is still unclear, and I can improve those areas further.

(The change to the dashboard json can be seen in a backup @ https://github.com/wmde/grafana-dashboards/commit/9b191338735774a0d39e0f8a572d62bb465f6a4f)

This makes use of the new feature I mentioned further up the ticket.

cool, thanks! Could you also mention that ElectronPDF is currently the default selection on all wikis that have it enabled? Also, could you mention explicitely on which wikis it is enabled? (I know you could figure that out due to the one graph, but whenever I read "ALL" I still imagine loads of wikis. If you don't want to change that on multiple places whenever it is deployed to a new wiki, I am also fine with a line above all graphs stating that you should be aware it is only deployed on the following four wikis: de....)

Done both!
