Grafana v6.7 brings new features, many enhancements and bug fixes.
Grafana v6.7 comes with a lot of new features and enhancements:
Breaking changes
-
Slack: Removed Mention setting and instead introduce Mention Users, Mention Groups, and Mention Channel. The first two settings require user and group IDs, respectively. This change was necessary because the way of mentioning via the Slack API changed and mentions in Slack notifications no longer worked.
-
Alerting: Reverts the behavior of
diffandpercent_diffto not always be absolute. Something we introduced by mistake in 6.1.0. Alerting now supportdiff(),diff_abs(),percent_diff()andpercent_diff_abs(). #21338
Notice about changes in backendSrv for plugin authors
In our mission to migrate away from AngularJS to React we have removed all AngularJS dependencies in the core data retrieval service backendSrv.
Removing the AngularJS dependencies in backendSrv has the unfortunate side effect of AngularJS digest no longer being triggered for any request made with backendSrv. Because of this, external plugins using backendSrv directly may suffer from strange behaviour in the UI.
To remedy this issue, as a plugin author you need to trigger the digest after a direct call to backendSrv.
Example:
backendSrv.get(‘http://your.url/api’).then(result => {
this.result = result;
this.$scope.$digest();
});
You can test your plugin with the master branch version of Grafana.
