Automate Your Metrics: Real-time Dashboard Updates
detail.loadingPreview
Effortlessly keep your dashboards up-to-date with real-time data from Docker, npm, and GitHub. This workflow automates the retrieval and posting of key metrics, ensuring your project visibility is always current.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow is designed to automate the process of collecting and displaying crucial project metrics on a central dashboard. It leverages scheduled triggers to periodically fetch data from Docker Hub, npm registry, and GitHub repositories. The workflow then massages this raw data into a format suitable for display on a custom dashboard, specifically targeting widgets for Docker pulls and stars, npm maintenance scores, and GitHub watchers, forks, stars, and open issues. By centralizing this information, teams can gain instant insights into project performance, community engagement, and potential areas for improvement without manual data collection.
Key Features
- Scheduled data fetching for continuous updates.
- Integrates with Docker Hub, npm, and GitHub APIs.
- Customizable dashboard configuration for specific project details.
- Formats data for seamless integration with custom dashboard widgets.
- Automates the reporting of key metrics like downloads, stars, forks, and issues.
How To Use
- Configure Dashboard Settings: Update the 'Dashboard Configuration' node with your dashboard's hostname, authentication token, and specific project identifiers (e.g.,
docker_name,npm_package,github_owner). - Schedule Trigger: Adjust the 'Cron' node's
triggerTimesto set how frequently you want the workflow to run (e.g., every minute, every hour). - Connect to APIs: The workflow automatically connects to Docker Hub, npm, and GitHub APIs using the provided configurations.
- Data Processing: Review and adjust the 'Massage Docker Data', 'Massage npm Data', and 'Massage GitHub Data' nodes (not fully shown but implied) to ensure the fetched data is correctly parsed and prepared for your dashboard.
- Send to Dashboard: Ensure the
dashboardHostnameanddashboardAuthTokenare correctly set in the 'Dashboard Configuration' node for the subsequenthttpRequestnodes to send data to your dashboard widgets.
