Welcome to the Kibana_health_metric_vis wiki!

This plugin allows you to change the background color according to the parameters (critical or warning).

5 files are present:

• health_metric_vis.html: HTML file that displays metrics
• health_metric_vis.js: JS file that allows you to set the default options when you create a new visualization in Kibana.
• health_metric_vis.less: LESS file that contains the plugin CSS
• health_metric_vis_controller.js: JS file that contains the controller Angular
• health_metric_vis_params.html: HTML file that contains the plugin options

File health_metric_vis_params.html

This HTML file displays the various options of the plugin. 7 parameters to remember:

• vis.params.fontColor: the font color (in hexadecimal or the color name)
• vis.params.redThreshold: Fixe the critical value
• vis.params.yellowThreshold: Fixe the alert value
• vis.params.invertScale: invert sense of comparison (above / below)
• vis.params.greenColor: default color of the background
• vis.params.redColor: background color when the value is above / below the critical value
• vis.params.yellowColor: background color when the value is above / below the alert value

File health_metric_vis_controller.js

This file contains the logic of the plugin. mainly, everything relies on two functions: getColor and getFontColor.

• getColor: This feature is based on comparisons between the value of the metric and the one defined in the redThreshold and yellowThreshold parameters. If a comparison is true, it returns the associated color (redcolor, yellowColor and GreenColor).
• getFontColor: this function returns the color (fontColor) if the value of the metric exists.
