Grafana Static Data Source Variable Plugin

This plugin allows you to serve static variables for your dashboards

How to use

Create a new datasource and paste a valid Map<string,string[]> in the json field of the configuration page

{ 
    "regions": ["Europe", "America", "Asia"], 
    "datacenters": ["Paris", "Milan", "NewYork", "Vancouver", "Sidney", "Singapour"] ,
    "Europe": ["Paris", "Milan"],
    "America": ["NewYork", "Vancouver"],
    "Asia": ["Sidney", "Singapour"]
}

Now add a new variable to one of your dashboards and select the datasource you just created
You can use any of the map key in the query field to return the associated list of values

This works pretty well with the new value groups/tags feature
