Sort/Reorganize Multi-Node-Dashboard list

Right now the only way to get the nodes to show up in a specific order is by adding them in the order that I want them to show up.

Could the list of nodes be sort-able by name, age, version, disk usage, bandwidth, (etc… ) ?

We would like to see that for a long time already:

Yes, I was just reading through that post again and the only mention I could find of a request for list sorting was from you and SGC about 3 years ago…

Maybe I should have done this on the MND post. I figured a direct topic/post wouldn’t hurt

Of course not. But sadly probably does not help either. Development progress of MND in terms of new features or better usability is zero I fear.

Unfortunately I believe that @jammerdan is right, it’s a low priority.
Perhaps implementing a Grafana dashboard would be better, storagenode has an endpoint for Prometheus, so perhaps it could be used by the Community to build a more nice dashboard than this autonomous edition.

No worries, just wanted to check and see.

I’d looked at setting up the grafana dashboard a few years ago but couldn’t find a coherent start-to-finish set of instructions ( I don’t have an existing grafana dashboard to build off from). The tutorials I found at the time started off with “we’re not going to cover how to set up grafana, you should already know this…”

I’ll look into it again and see if I can get that set up now that I’ve got more time to figure out how it works.

Assuming that I do get it figured out I’ll post the results/steps in case anyone else wants to set it up.

You may check these topics:

You may also take a look on this example: Setting Up a Dashboard for Commercial Storage Nodes - Storj Docs, even if that only for Commercial Storage Nodes (Storj Select) project, it should work for Public Network Storage Nodes too, the provided example of the dashboard likely will not be helpful, but you may use it as a start.

It looks like somebody with a heart will finally bring that:

Thank you!

I knew I saw a topic about this feature somewhere.

For anyone who wants the multinode dashboard with sorting but cant wait until the change is merged (if everything goes alright), I have uploaded the linux binaries and docker images here:

Enjoy :slight_smile:

You are my hero!

Look when I had requested such a feature:

Unfortunately I am not a coder and cannot do it by myself.

So great that you did it.

The MND needs a lot of more features as it is very user unfriendly currently.
If you care to add more, I am sure me and others have plenty of ideas.

For example:

  • Filter
  • Filter as you type
  • Sort over multiple columns
  • Different colors (Red if a node is offline/unreachable or has bad stats)
  • Unreachable/offline nodes always on top
  • And if you are really into it, maybe we can receive even more data from the API and display it like node age or others.

And I guess many many more. Unfortunately the devs of this MND have other important things to do so there is no question that if anybody who is able to improve it can chime in anytime and help to make it better.

Should hopefully be included in 1.108.

If I happen to have some free time to mess around I might give some of them a try, but cannot promise anything.
