Group Github repositories according to prefix

Grafana

Hello. I am able to output the Github repositories using a JSON API as datasource and a query variable. However, I want the repositories now to be grouped according to their prefix.

Example repos:

apple-data-mining, melon-warehouse-base, banana-tracker, orange-satellite-monitoring

If grouped:

Alpha Repos (apple-data-mining, melon-warehouse-base)

Beta Repos (banana-tracker, orange-satellite-monitoring)

Now I want that in the repo filter in the dashboard, the labels Alpha Repos and Beta Repos should only appear. At the same time, combine all the metrics from all the repos per group when the group is selected.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

there is no indication as to how the grouping is related to those repos. could you expound how they are related?

each group of repos is managed by a certain individual. example alpha repos managed by person # 1 start with prefixes apple and melon, while beta repos start with banana and orange.

Apologies for the confusion :slightly_smiling_face:

Let’s just say that the grouping is a custom rule: that repos starting with the word apple and melon as prefix belong to Alpha Repos, and banana and orange belong to Beta Repos.

__text,__value
Alpha,1
Beta,2


__text,__value
Melon,1
Apple,1

__value is the key of that joins them
