Automate Your Project Metrics Dashboard
detail.loadingPreview
This workflow automates the collection and display of key project metrics from Docker, npm, and GitHub. Keep track of essential data points like Docker pulls and stars, npm package details, and GitHub repository activity, all in one centralized dashboard.
About This Workflow
The 'Dashboard' n8n workflow is designed to provide real-time insights into your project's performance across critical platforms. It leverages the power of n8n to fetch data from Docker Hub, npm registry, and GitHub, then pushes this information to your custom dashboard. Configured to run every minute, this workflow ensures you always have up-to-date metrics. It dynamically retrieves information using API calls based on your project's identifiers, including Docker image names, npm package names, and GitHub repository details. This eliminates manual data collection, freeing up valuable time and resources for development and innovation. The workflow also includes nodes for massaging the retrieved data into a usable format for display on your dashboard widgets.
Key Features
- Automated Data Collection: Continuously gathers metrics from Docker, npm, and GitHub every minute.
- Centralized Dashboard Integration: Pushes data to a custom dashboard via API calls.
- Dynamic Configuration: Easily update project identifiers like Docker names, npm packages, and GitHub repos.
- Comprehensive Metrics: Tracks Docker pulls and stars, npm package details, and GitHub watchers, forks, stars, and open issues.
- Secure Authentication: Utilizes authentication tokens for secure dashboard communication.
How To Use
- Configure Dashboard Settings: In the 'Dashboard Configuration' node, update the
dashboardHostnameanddashboardAuthTokenwith your dashboard's API endpoint and authentication token. Also, setproduct_hunt_post_id,npm_package,docker_name,docker_repository,github_owner, andgithub_repoto match your project's identifiers. - Trigger Schedule: The 'Cron' node is set to 'everyMinute'. Adjust this schedule as needed for your reporting frequency.
- Data Retrieval Nodes: The workflow includes nodes to retrieve data from Docker Hub (
Retrieve Docker Data), npm (Retrieve npm Data), and GitHub (not explicitly shown but implied by GitHub data points). Ensure these are correctly configured to fetch data for your project. - Data Massaging (Implied): The workflow logic suggests there are 'Massage Docker Data' and 'Massage GitHub Data' nodes (though not fully included in the snippet). You will need to configure these nodes to extract and format the specific data points required by your dashboard widgets.
- Dashboard Widget Updates: The nodes like 'Docker Pulls', 'Docker Stars', 'GitHub Watchers', etc., are responsible for sending the processed data to your dashboard. Verify the API endpoint URLs and the structure of the
bodyParametersUimatch your dashboard's widget API requirements. Use the output from the data massaging nodes to populate thecurrentvalues.
