Add a note to a note derived from a Database

Post by cksrealm »

All,
Has anyone ever added a note or similar to a weathermap that does a query to another database, ultimately I have another database that states how many access points are connected to a switch, I have the switch the uplinks on the weathermap bout would like to be able to also query the database so you can see what access points are connected to that switch for example. I have been able to add a basic note but how do I adapt this to rather pull a value from a database, hope that makes sense what I am trying to achieve.

Seems like a nice feature. I've written a few plugins in the past that did just that but for other purposes. You should log the feature request first, and we can start a discussion. If you are developer type, we can steer your efforts on GitHub.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?
