Release Notes

This is an official release of the Grafana SQLite plugin code. For some releases it takes a while
to also appear in the Grafana repository, which is used to populate the plugins for the Grafana
website as well as their grafana-cli. Some releases (especially pre-releases) from Github never
appear in the Grafana repository.

To install this specific release use one of the following methods.

More details can also be found in the installation section of the Readme.

Installation

Using the grafana-cli

  1. Run this command:

    grafana-cli --pluginUrl https://github.com/fr-ser/grafana-sqlite-datasource/releases/download/v3.0.0-rc.1/frser-sqlite-datasource-3.0.0-rc.1.zip plugins install frser-sqlite-datasource

  2. See the installation instructions in the Readme.

Manual Installation

  1. Download the zip file below

  2. Extract the zip file into the data/plugins subdirectory for Grafana: unzip <the_download_zip_file> -d <plugin_dir>/

    Finding the plugin directory can sometimes be a challenge as this is platform and settings
    dependent. A common location for this on Linux devices is /var/lib/grafana/plugins/

  3. See the installation instructions in the Readme.

Changelog

For the full changelog see here.
This release moved to a new underlying SQLite library: https://pkg.go.dev/modernc.org/sqlite. This should have no big
changes to regular queries but can have effects on more subtle configurations (e.g. path options). Fore more information
see the Changed section below.

This library has no dependency on CGO, which allows much easier cross-compilation for other systems. This way the
plugin has a much simpler build process now and also supports more platforms (see information below under Added)

Added

  • Added new platforms to the release: Darwin (MacOS) for ARM (Apple Silicon) and FreeBSD for AMD64

Changed

  • Changed the underlying SQLite library to: https://pkg.go.dev/modernc.org/sqlite. While the general SQLite features
    and especially queries should remain unchanged by this, path options need to be checked for compatibility with the
    new library now. Please refer to the link above for more information on the options.

Removed

  • No separate release is created anymore for ARM v7. ARM v6 should suffice for all devices. If that
    is not the case for your device, please open a new issue.
