Varken

UPDATE: Hi, vFlagR here. I've taken the liberty of updating this image in order to get Varken working properly again with it's newest update. There are some extra steps in order to get Varken working now but it's still simple, just follow the new instructions below.

All credit goes to the original creator of this image and repo, h1f0x. Big thanks also to justinglock40, his version of this image allowed me to get over some stumbling blocks and get everything working again :).

This repository includes everything needed to deploy a Grafana dashboard, using InlfuxDB as a datasource and Varken to connect to PgBlitz services in a simple way.
