Insight: Functions & Calculations

Summary So when i create a dashboard for example for washingmachines, i have various information i want to display. There are sometimes information which either should be tranformed or manipulated or combined. Basic Example Washingmachine Total Time. I can "sum" the washing machine time in minutes and show this metric. It would be nice that a metric field then could be used as an input / variable for another metric panel. For example: • Metric panel: Washing minutes total --> {{washing_minutes_total}} • Metric panel: Washing hours total : uses {{washing_minutes_total / 60}} Motivation Reduce the required creation of new fields and custom hooks. Detailed Design Add like in Exel a custom mathematical function? Requirements List Must Have: • Use (metric) panels values as global variable • Support simple math function Could have: • Custom functions Drawbacks implementation cost Alternatives Create of extra fields in coll…
