|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Network-WeatherMap requires php pear to work.
|
|
|
|
### 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`.
|
|
|
|
### WeatherMapper
|
|
Automatically generate weathermaps from a LibreNMS database using WeatherMapper [Link](https://github.com/pblasquez/weathermapper)
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Adding your Network Weathermaps to the Dashboards
|
|
|
|
Once you have created your Network Weather Map you can add it to a dashboard page by doing the following.
|
|
|
|
### Step 1
|
|
When you create the Weathermap make sure to export as HTML and PNG you will need this for the out to the dashboard.
|
|
|
|
In the Weathermap Plugin page, you will see the output maps. `Right click` on one of the maps and click on `copy image address`.
|
|
|
|
Example URL: `http://yourlibrenms.org/plugins/Weathermap/output/yourmap.html`
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Step 2
|
|
Then go back to your Dashboard, create a new dashboard and give it a name. select the widget as *External Images*.
|
|
|
|
Give the Widget a Title.
|
|
|
|
The *Image URL* will need to be the address you copied but at the end remove the `.html` and replace it with `.png`
|
|
|
|
Example *Image URL* `http://yourlibrenms.org/plugins/Weathermap/output/yourmap.png`
|
|
|
|
The *Target URL* will be the URL you copied but with the `.html` at the end of the URL.
|
|
|
|
Example *Target URL* `http://yourlibrenms.org/plugins/Weathermap/output/yourmap.html`
|
|
|
|
Then Click on Set
|
|
|
|
You should now be able to see the Weathermap you have created in your list of dashboards. You could also add this to existing dashboards.
