Change Details

At the moment all of our grafana dashboards are hand-edited, with some committed to puppet as per T133392. The manual editing approach is ok but tedious and error prone especially when editing multiple dashboards. I've come across https://github.com/weaveworks/grafanalib before and it seems it could be a useful starting point to be able to write grafana dashboards as code instead. Other alternatives include a jsonnet-based one: https://github.com/grafana/grafonnet-lib
