Requires opCharts-4.0.9 and Above.
opCharts can display tabular data from most JSON endpoints which required no authentication or support token / bearer header tokens.
In this example we are showing weather data from the Gold Coast using the openweathermap.org API
Key | Required | Description |
---|---|---|
Name | Name of the component which is shown under the opCharts data sources when creating a dashboard | |
data_source_type | remote_json is used for opCharts to know it needs to make this type of request | |
model_view | opmantek-remote-json for the table view, opmantek-pie to show the data in a pie chart | |
options.titleText | Title of the component shown on the dashboard | |
remote_paramaters.url | URL of your endpoint which returns JSON data | |
remote_paramaters.auth_type | ||
remote_paramaters.data_key | ||
remote_paramaters.pagination | server or client, defaults to server | |
remote_paramaters.log_request | true or false, omkd_log_level also has to be debug for the web request to written into opCharts.log | |
private.token | Opmantek Token Auth | |
table_schema | opCharts 3.2.2 - Customising Table Columns | |
external_url | Hyperlink which displays on the top right of the component | |
external_url_label | Label for the hyperlink |

How to use the widget
The first step to create a new component is to add the json descriptor file in the path (A content example can be seen in the example above):
omk/lib/json/opCharts/components.d/new_component.json
Once the file is created it can be used as a component in a Dashboard.
