Oninit® Grafana Data Sources — Download
The Oninit® Grafana data-source plugins are released under the Apache License, Version 2.0. By downloading the plugin zips you agree to the terms of that licence; the full text is bundled in each zip as LICENSE and is also available at apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.
- The plugins, their documentation, and the bundled icons are Copyright © 2026 Oninit® LLC, licensed under the Apache License 2.0.
- The plugin zips carry a private Grafana® signature against the root URL https://grafana.oninit.com/. A Grafana server whose root_url matches verifies the signature on startup and loads the plugins normally; on a server with a different root_url, either set root_url to match or add both plugin IDs to allow_loading_unsigned_plugins (see the Signature note below).
- Oninit® LLC makes no warranty as to fitness for any purpose and accepts no liability for damages arising from use of the plugins. See the Apache License 2.0 sections 7 (Disclaimer of Warranty) and 8 (Limitation of Liability) for the full terms.
- Both plugins are open source under the Apache License 2.0; the source is available on request — contact Oninit® through www.oninit.com.
Current install path
The direct download tables below are the current install path. The official Grafana® plugin catalog listing is pending resolution of account-side issues at Grafana's end — see the Overview note on catalog availability. Once the catalog listing goes live it will become the simplest install path (search for Oninit JSON or Oninit Wire from inside Grafana and click Install); the artefact distributed via the catalog will be the same plugin (signed as part of the catalog submission) linked below.
Direct download — latest
| Plugin | Artefact | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Oninit JSON | oninit-json-datasource-latest.zip | MongoDB®-style query editor for Informix® via the wire listener. |
| Oninit Wire | oninit-wire-datasource-latest.zip | Pure SQL query editor for Informix® via the wire listener. Covers ordinary relational SQL plus TimeSeries access through either TS SQL routines or the Virtual Table interface. |
Install order
Grafana plugins are file-system installs: unpack the zip into the Grafana plugin directory, then restart grafana-server so it discovers and registers the new plugin. The two plugins are independent — install either or both; no shared component to register first.
| Platform | Install |
|---|---|
| Debian / Ubuntu / Red Hat / Fedora | sudo unzip oninit-json-datasource-<v>.zip -d /var/lib/grafana/plugins/ && sudo unzip oninit-wire-datasource-<v>.zip -d /var/lib/grafana/plugins/ && sudo systemctl restart grafana-server |
| Docker (mounted plugin volume) | Unzip each plugin into the host directory mounted at the container's GF_PATHS_PLUGINS path; restart the container. |
See the Installation page for the full sideload procedure, alternative provisioning via YAML, and signature / root-URL handling.
Signature
The zips are signed with a private Grafana® signature against the root URL https://grafana.oninit.com/. On a Grafana server served at that root URL the signature verifies on startup and the plugins load with no further configuration. On a server with a different root_url, Grafana logs plugin signature invalid (a private signature is scoped to its root URL); to load the plugins there, either set grafana.ini's root_url to https://grafana.oninit.com/, or add both plugin IDs to allow_loading_unsigned_plugins (oninit-json-datasource,oninit-wire-datasource) — or the equivalent GF_PLUGINS_ALLOW_LOADING_UNSIGNED_PLUGINS env var — then restart grafana-server. A catalog (community-signed) build, valid on any instance, will follow once the Grafana plugin catalog listing goes live.
