monitoring: create uniform variables API for dashboards (!29424) · Merge requests · Administrator / sourcegraph

Administrator requested to merge monitoring/variables-api into main Jan 04, 2022

Created by: bobheadxi

Creates a uniform Variables API, ContainerVariable, that abstracts away a lot of the behind-the-scenes dashboard config and potential gotchas to make it easier to define template variables on dashboards. API docs: https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph@monitoring/variables-api/-/docs/monitoring/monitoring?ContainerVariable

Poked around with the local dev instructions and the dashboards still work correctly I think, and also updated the dev instructions to use sg 😎
