I encountered an error after following the tutorial instructions in step 3 for creating panel plugins:

…
I installed Node.js (14.4.0), npm (6.14.5) and yarn (1.22.4) with the following commands:
…
curl -sL https://rpm.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | bash -
yum install -y nodejs
curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/rpm/yarn.repo | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/yarn.repo
yum install yarn

Steps 1 and 2 in tutorial were completed, with grafana-plugins folder created inside /etc/grafana followed by command ‘chown root:grafana grafana-plugins’.
You can use this plugin — GitHub - grafana/grafana-starter-panel: A starter for Grafana panel plugins
It seems like it is suitable for working with tutorials ( Build a panel plugin | Grafana Plugin Tools ).
The description of the plugin says which commands you need to run after installing the plugin. But there is an important nuance. Before command
yarn build
need to run:
npm install
Otherwise panel shows errors “Error loading: myorgid-simple-panel”
Ok, thanks for the response. I will try that plugin and post the outcome later.
Can you provide additional instructions for installing the simple-react-panel plugin? I am a bit lost in terms of the file/folder structure that would normally be found in the plugin directory, i.e. my-plugin, after running plugin:create. Just need to know what the plugin directory should be called, and what files from your github link need to be copied there prior to running yarn commands.
I work on Debian. Plugins are located in the folder “/var/lib/grafana/plugins”.
There you need to upload all the files using the link from GitHub ( GitHub - grafana/grafana-starter-panel: A starter for Grafana panel plugins ). This is the plugin template “simple-react-panel”.
This is what I did instead of running the command “npx @grafana/toolkit plugin:create my-plugin”.
Initially, the folder is called “simple-react-panel-master”. After running the commands
yarn install
npm install
yarn build
The folder will be called “simple-react-panel”
Further - all according to the instructions.
Copied everything from git link to folder simple-react-panel-will. I got the following with ‘yarn install’ where proxy values are hidden purposely:

Buddy, I don’t know what your problem is … I have never encountered such a thing.
It’s just that my friend and I are doing grafana at work. He did Linux, and I only as a programmer.
Ok, no problem, thanks for the suggestions.
Providing an update: The node-sass installation failure was due to a corporate proxy preventing the binary from downloading. Once that was resolved, I was able to install the simple react panel locally. However, after restarting grafana-server did not see the plugin listed in the console plugin list. I shared the results from that issue in a new post shown here if you had any thoughts:
https://localhost:3000/t/installed-plugin-does-not-appear-in-console-plugin-list/35396
Unfortunately the original npx command to create a plugin still has the same error with node-sass even with node-sass installed globally.
Got that. Thank you. I’ll mean.
Issue was resolved doing manual installation with plugins from the community. Required setting ownership permission recursively to the installed plugin folders, as well as making sure all instances in system that were running Grafana used same configuration for console.
Commands:
chown -R grafana:grafana /var/lib/grafana/plugins
chmod -R 700 /var/lib/grafana/plugins
