      We’ve been using Panics Statusboard for years. And love it. Panic decided last year to discontinue the product. So we’re switching to MM now. What StatusBoard did really nicely was having a “module” that you configure to a JSON file path. And it will render the graph data into nice column graphs, like this:

      If there’s only one value/digit, it displays it as a number. But if there is multiple datapoints, it will display that as a graph. And a simple flag setting lets you configure between columns graphs or regular graphs.

      The data input format looks like this:

      {
        "graph" : {
          "title" : "Soft Drink Sales",
          "datasequences" : [
            {
              "title" : "X-Cola",
              "datapoints" : [
                { "title" : "2008", "value" : 22 },
                { "title" : "2009", "value" : 24 },
                { "title" : "2010", "value" : 25.5 },
                { "title" : "2011", "value" : 27.9 },
                { "title" : "2012", "value" : 31 },
              ]
            },
            {
              "title" : "Y-Cola",
              "datapoints" : [
                { "title" : "2008", "value" : 18.4 },
                { "title" : "2009", "value" : 20.1 },
                { "title" : "2010", "value" : 24.8 },
                { "title" : "2011", "value" : 26.1 },
                { "title" : "2012", "value" : 29 },
              ]
            }
          ]
        }
      }
