Grafana progress list plugin

CorpGlory Dev team specializes in Grafana plugins development and there is a plugin we want to tell you about.

Once we needed a plugin able to show large sorted lists of bars; calculation of total values on current time range and color scheme dependent of value. We made plugin that supports it and place them to opensource. We called it grafana-progress-list

Grafana released bar-gauge-plugin later in Grafana 6, but their plugin has limitations:

• no sorting over bars
• no color mappings
• no calculation total value
• and bugs UI ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Progress list supports all features above.
