Installing Network-WeatherMap
Step 1.
Extract to your LibreNMS plugins directory /opt/librenms/html/plugins so you should see something like /opt/librenms/html/plugins/Weathermap/
The best way to do this is via git. Go to your install directory and then /opt/librenms/html/plugins
Enter:
git clone https://github.com/librenms-plugins/Weathermap.git
Step 2.
Inside the html/plugins directory, change the ownership of the Weathermap directory by typing chown -R librenms:librenms Weathermap/
Make the configs directory writeable chmod 775 /opt/librenms/html/plugins/Weathermap/configs
Note if you are using SELinux you need to input the following command chcon -R -t httpd_cache_t Weathermap/
Step 3.
Enable the cron process by editing your current LibreNMS cron file (typically /etc/cron.d/librenms) and add the following:
LibreNMS: */5 * * * * librenms /opt/librenms/html/plugins/Weathermap/map-poller.php >> /dev/null 2>&1
Step 4.
Enable the plugin from LibreNMS Web UI in OverView ->Plugins -> Plugin Admin menu.
Step 5.
Now you should see Weathermap Overview -> Plugins -> Weathermap Create your maps, please note when you create a MAP, please click Map Style, ensure Overlib is selected for HTML Style and click submit. Also, ensure you set an output image filename and output HTML filename in Map Properties. I'd recommend you use the output folder as this is excluded from git updates (i.e enter output/mymap.png and output/mymap.html).
Optional: If your install is in another directory than standard, set $basehref within map-poller.php.
