Stop me if I'm way out in left field but... It seems to me that you are only looking to RRDTool for data storage. If this is true, you can collect your data and store it in an RRD (using whatever method you choose) and then roll your own PHP script to display using Sparklines utilizing rrdfetch to retrieve data from your RRD file.
Sparklines does not care where the data came from, just that it gets fed an array of data points. -----Original Message----- From: Tobias Oetiker [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 08, 2005 5:33 PM To: Woods, Craig Cc: [email protected] Subject: [rrd-users] Re: Sparklines in RRD ? Craig, you should definitly go for rrdtool 1.2 since it has the only-graph option as well as support for --zoom which lets you zoom your graphs to your hearts delight ... you can also switch of the grid to get some thing sort of like what is on that webpage .. cheers tobi Yesterday Woods, Craig wrote: > I would love to build some sparklines with my RRD data - has anyone tried this?
