Does it support UID generation?

Yes, it is designed to generate a new, stable UID derived from the dashboard name rather than reusing the old export UID, preventing conflicts.

How does it preserve the dashboard layout?

It aligns the gridPos.y coordinates and row structures of the source JSON to ensure the visual hierarchy remains identical in the Jsonnet output.

Does this skill handle legacy Grafana panels?

Yes, it automatically modernizes legacy types like 'graph' to 'timeseries' and 'singlestat' to 'stat' during the conversion process.

Can I use the output for manual dashboard imports?

Absolutely. The skill supports a manual import mode that utilizes datasource variables like ${DS_PROMETHEUS} for easy provisioning.

How do I verify that no panels were lost during conversion?

The skill includes a multi-step verification workflow that compares panel and variable counts between the source JSON and the generated Jsonnet.

分析与监控

Converts Grafana dashboard JSON exports into maintainable Jsonnet code following standard mixin conventions and modernization practices.

关于

This skill automates the migration of Grafana dashboards from manual UI exports to Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) using Jsonnet. It streamlines the transition by modernizing legacy panel types, preserving complex row hierarchies, and generating self-contained files that integrate seamlessly with unified Grafana libraries. Ideal for teams adopting GitOps, it ensures that dashboard definitions remain version-controlled, reusable, and consistent with modern observability standards.

主要功能

Automated modernization of legacy panels (e.g., Graph to Time Series)
0 GitHub stars
Precise preservation of original row structures and grid layouts
Generation of self-contained, build-ready Jsonnet files
Integrated verification workflow to ensure panel and variable parity
Support for manual import mode with datasource UID selection

使用场景

Modernizing legacy Grafana dashboards to use the latest panel types and standards
Migrating manually created UI dashboards to version-controlled Infrastructure-as-Code
Standardizing observability layouts across large-scale Grafana deployments using mixins
