Dashboards & Visualizations

Dashboard help -- Can I use Bootstrap Enterprise so my dashboard has responsive design?

alt textRegards,

I'm developing a home panel using the HTML components inside a panel in simple XML format.

Ex:

    <dashboard>
       <row>
          <panel>
             <html>
                ... my code here
             </html>
          </panel>
       </row>
    </dashboard>

What I need to do is make this control panel sensitive to other screen resolutions and mobile devices. I know that Splunk uses a modified version of the Bootstrap library, but I do not know which classes allow me to enable the same control panel in other resolutions.

Are there guides for the Enterprise Bootstrap version used by Splunk?

@markuxProof, while I can not comment on Grid based dashboards, please find attached the dashboard menu with Status Indicator Custom Visualization and Trellis Layout (Splunk Enterprise 6.6 onward). As you can see some examples below, it give 6, 4, 3 and 2 columns based on size of browser.

While I have used Status Indicator just for bare-bones example, you can use your web app development skills to create your own icons/background image etc. to develop the app layout you need.

Following is the Simple XML code for your reference.
PS: Splunkbase link for Status Indicator Custom Visualization (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3119/).
Drilldown has to be coded via JavaScript.

Niketnilay,

Dude, your response was perfect. It was even better than I was thinking. I already knew Trellis Layout, but it did not even occur to me to use it here.

Thank you very much!

hi niketnilay,

Thans for answer. I had already accessed this inlay session to see if what I was looking for was described. But what I really need is something like Bootstrap's grid system (https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/css/#grid)
