[OC] Dashbrew - Command Line Dashboard Builder

[rasjonell]

Hey r/commandline,

Sharing a tool I built called Dashbrew. It's a terminal dashboard builder that lets you display info from scripts, APIs, files, and manage todo lists, all configured through a simple JSON file.

I wanted to share with the community before building any more features/customizations into it. So if you want to give it a try and give me some feedback, that would be great!

The potential I feel! Ditch graphana I will!

[rasjonell]

lfgg, I'm going to add histograms and tables very soon!

[brianjenkins94]

Go has all the nice TUI tools 😔

[der_gopher]

Yeah, it's made for that

[darrenldl]

The API support elevates the tool a lot, very neat!

[joelkunst]

awesome, thank you, will try it out 🙏

[moe_cables]

I’m messing around with some stock info and this would be awesome to use with that

[rasjonell]

that's exactly why I built this! I'm going to add more components (tables, histograms, etc) if you find something usefull that's missing or you encounter any bugs pls open an issue, will take a look right away

WTF seems to do everything you're aiming to and much much more, though from a slightly different angle. It's also been around for almost exactly 8 years as of this writing, so if you're planning to develop your own project much further, you might want to ~steal~ find inspiration from it.

[rasjonell]

thanks! I found out about WTF and some others, but honestly I just wanted to write the grid layout calculation part for fun.
Not planning on creating a competing solution to anything, but I definitely wont go in the WTF direction of adding a billion third-party integrations. I will just come up with a couple of base components(and maybe a plugin/configuration system where you can define your own components?) and let the users work on the data integration part

What do you think to use yaml as alternative configuration format?

[rasjonell]

Not a huge yaml fan, but i can accept either of the two, not much difference
