I am trying to install a plugin on a computer without internet access. Most previous posts on this subject have been told to “read the documentation”.
that says:
Installing Plugins Manually
If your Grafana Server does not have access to the Internet, then the plugin will have to downloaded and manually copied to your Grafana Server.
The Download URL from Grafana.com API is in this form:
https://grafana.com/api/plugins/<plugin id>/versions/<version number>/download
You can specify a local URL by using the --pluginUrl option.
grafana-cli --pluginUrl https://nexus.company.com/grafana/plugins/<plugin-id>-<plugin-version>.zip plugins install <plugin-id>
Sorry but I don’t have a URL, I have a zip file as the download. I unzipped this into the plug ins directory for Grafana but the folder structure does not match that of other plug ins, it looks more like an install file. For example when I try running the plug in it says:
This seems to say it expected a “/module” sub directory but instead I have a “.tscache”, “\dist” and “\src” folders in the zip file. The main folder has a package.json file which I usually associate with install packs.
I then tried using PowerShell and ran:
D:\temp> C:\grafana-5.4.3\bin\grafana-cli plugins install .\black-mirror-1-singlestat-math-v1.1.6-12-g0aca146\

NAME:

So what have I done wrong?
thanks
