Docker - Datasource Config File for MSSQL

gomathyshankarr · April 22, 2020, 3:28am

Dear Community,

I am trying to create a Docker Container which can connect to MSSQL using config files. I am currently able to get the following fields configured using config file(provisioning YAML file):
Name
Database
User
is_default

I am however not able to configure the following fields:
Host
Password

Can someone please let me know if I am missing something?

Thanks and Regards,
Gomathy shankar

Have you seen the example file which shows how to configure the password field. It is has to be put into the secureJsonData section so that Grafana encrypts it. The Host field should be url in the provisioning file.

And here is an example of the provisioning file we use to spin up MSSQL in Grafana:

github.com

grafana/grafana/blob/master/devenv/datasources.yaml#L187-L193


- name: gdev-mssql
  type: mssql
  url: localhost:1433
  database: grafana
  user: grafana
  secureJsonData:
    password: Password!

Hey I am looking to config the field names based on config files like renaming the field names based on config map, how this problem can be solved @gomathyshankarr @daniellee can you share a sample config file?
Thanks
