Wheatermap beginer question

Help

Hi guys.
Im trying to create my first map.
Following documentation, I got this:

whatermap
whatermap1433×600 31.6 KB

As you can see I add some nodes and a link.
Then I set file and image name using png and html extensions and the output folder as recomended.
But …
After pressing submit , there is nothing at the output folder.

Also , at the sentense:
In the Weathermap Plugin page, you will see the output maps. Right click on one of the maps and click on copy image address .

Dont know exactly where to click.
Take a look.

Can not find the “copy image address (copiar direccion de la image)” .

Can you please lead me ??
Regards.
Leandro.

ssh to your server,

cd /opt/librenms/html/plugins/Weathermap/
php map-poller.php

paste the output back here.

I’ve had issues this week, turns out the very first problem was Weathermapper plugin setting 0 on image size, so I’ve gone from nothing to a fully functioning map in a day.

I would install the weather mapper plugin, get it to generate the configuration for you and then tweak it via the editor or CLI, that’s what I did.

you can safely ignore those errors, you should have a png in /output now.

Dear llama.
There is my map.
Im very happy.

map
map1386×562 40.4 KB

Just three things I can not tweak:
1 -How to make curved links ?
2 - How to show current traffic instead of percent value ?
3 - Hover on links is not working (should see traffic graph).
I checked:
a - Other browsers … same result.
b - ‘Hover’ Graph URL is ok , for instance:
http://12.30.6.106/graph.php?height=100&width=512&id=129&type=port_bits&legend=no
If I browse this, I can see the graph ok
btw: Link to graph does work if when click.

Thanks my friend.

Fantastic Leandro.

to answer your other questions,

1, I haven’t done that but I believe it’s using VIA, read the docs here

2, use this:

# TEMPLATE-only LINKs:
    LINK DEFAULT
WIDTH 3
BWOUTLINECOLOR none
BWLABEL bits
BANDWIDTH 1G
ARROWSTYLE compact

3, here’s an example from my config:

LINK sw1:Slot:0Port:1Gigabit-Level-sw2:Port1
    INFOURL /graphs/type=port_bits/id=65/
    OVERLIBGRAPH /graph.php?height=100&width=512&id=65&type=port_bits&legend=no
    TARGET ./device.domain.tld/port-id65.rrd:INOCTETS:OUTOCTETS
    NODES sw1 sw2
    BANDWIDTH 1G
    ARROWSTYLE compact

I’ve found editing the .conf file in …/Weathermap/configs/xxxx.conf to be far easier than the editor, except for maybe positioning of nodes.

good luck and happy mapping, it’s a bit addictive!
