Just that the grafan-image-rendered service seems to be doing double duty instead of just being a headless browser.
Yes, you need grafana running somewhere :)
- giuliomagnifico 4y agoAh okay I understood (I think), Grafana and grafana-image-render are two different things, the second is only a plug-in to render the images using chromium, as you noted. But you can’t build a separate app to build the images, because you will have to run Grafana + the plug-in on a server. The images are rendered from the Grafana not from the local browser, indeed I don’t have to run a browser/chrome/anything, just tell to Grafana to render locally the png with the query. If you want to render the image from your local browser, yes you can, but this is another story.
