What are you trying to achieve?
I want to have a line plot for each day of the number of new cases, hospitalizations and deaths due to covid-19. -
How are you trying to achieve it?
I have downloaded the covid-19 figures of out world in data. From that I created a postgres database with a little over 161,000 rows and about 67 variables. There are observations for each day of several variables for most countries. Currently I try to plot the figures for the Netherlands (iso_code=‘NLD’).
This works for SELECT date as “time”, new_cases but not for when I replace new_cases by new_cases_per_million.
- What happened?
When I select the column new_cases_per_million the selection “jumps back” to new_cases, the graph does not change. The user interface refuses to select the column. This happens to a lot of variables. In postgres this column contains values, a number of each day. When I try to force a graph of new_cases_per_million by editing the SQL like:
SELECT
date AS "time",
new_cases_per_million
FROM dapp_dataobservation
WHERE
iso_code = 'NLD'
ORDER BY 1
Still no graph is shown and when I switch back to the query builder it shows new_cases again.
-
What did you expect to happen?
When I select new_cases_per_million I expect to see variable new_cases_per_millon in the SELECT section of the query builder and a graph that show the numbers. -
Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?
I am prepared to do that but couldn’t find information how to do that. -
Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us exactly what they were.
/var/log/grafana/grafana.log showed some initial errors of the moment I provided the wrong credentials to the postgres source. After correcting this there are no errors to be found. -
Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?
No
