* feat: Grafana copy publishing, dashboard examples, and optional OTel metrics Implements three observability improvements: #82 — publish_grafana_copy(): Uses SQLite online backup API (WAL-safe) to atomically publish a consistent read-only copy beside the target. Adds --publish-copy option to grafana-schema and snapshot CLI commands. #83 — examples/grafana/: Minimal working Grafana setup with docker-compose, provisioning datasource/dashboard YAML, and three dashboard JSON files (mt5cli-overview, mt5cli-trades, mt5cli-market). All queries use grafana_* views; no credentials or private paths included. #84 — mt5cli/telemetry.py: Optional OTel metrics behind mt5cli[otel] extra. Base install is unaffected. Adds _Mt5Metrics singleton (no-op until configure_metrics() is called), wraps update_history() and update_observability() with record_history_update / record_snapshot_update context managers, and emits account/position gauges from snapshots.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * chore: format Grafana dashboards and expand qa script to include JSON - Update qa.sh prettier pattern to format JSON files alongside markdown - Reformat Grafana dashboard JSONs with consistent spacing Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: address owner review comments before merge - qa.sh: fix Prettier glob from `{,d,json}` to `{md,json}` so Markdown files are actually formatted by local QA (P2) - compose.yml: add GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS env var so the frser-sqlite-datasource plugin is installed at container start (P1) - telemetry.py: replace no-op get_meter() call with a real SDK MeterProvider pipeline; add optional `readers` kwarg so callers can inject custom readers (e.g. InMemoryMetricReader in tests) without needing the OTLP package (P1) - sdk.py: aggregate profit and volume by symbol before emitting gauge values so hedging accounts with multiple same-symbol positions emit one point per symbol instead of overwriting with each row (P2) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: emit mt5_history_update_rows_total via conn.total_changes delta The counter was registered but never incremented, making the advertised history-update throughput metric permanently zero. Add add_history_rows() to _Mt5Metrics and call it in update_history() using the SQLite total_changes delta measured around write_incremental_datasets(). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: address three owner review comments - compose.yml: replace soft fallback with :? error expansion so Compose refuses to start when MT5CLI_DB_PATH is unset or empty (P1) - README.md: tell native Windows users to copy only the datasource provisioning file; the dashboards yml contains a Docker-specific path that is invalid on Windows (P2) - telemetry.py / sdk.py: emit mt5_terminal_connected, mt5_terminal_trade_allowed, and mt5_terminal_trade_expert gauges via a new record_terminal_state() method called from _snapshot_terminal(), completing the connection-status metric surface from issue #84 (P2) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat: add snapshot freshness panel and win-rate column to dashboards - mt5cli-overview.json: add a full-width "Last Snapshot" stat panel (dateTimeFromNow unit) below the account stats, querying MAX(time)*1000 from grafana_account_snapshots so users can tell whether Grafana is reading a current published copy (#83) - mt5cli-trades.json: add win_rate_pct computed column to the Trade Statistics by Symbol table via 100.0 * winning_deals / NULLIF( total_deals, 0), with a percent unit override and "Win Rate (%)" display label (#83) Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: reject same source and target path in publish_grafana_copy Adds an early same-path guard to publish_grafana_copy: resolves both paths before any I/O and raises ValueError if they are identical, preventing the function from overwriting the live source database with its own backup copy. Also adds a unit test for the rejected case. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: address ruff EM102/TRY003/E501 in same-path guard Assigns the ValueError message to a variable before raising and shortens the test docstring to stay within the 88-char line limit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: apply ruff format to publish_grafana_copy error message Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: remove grafana_ticks panel from default market dashboard The Tick Bid/Ask panel queried grafana_ticks which only exists when users collect tick data (opt-in). Users following the default OHLCV-only setup path hit "no such table: grafana_ticks" on dashboard load. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: close SQLite connections before atomic replace in publish_grafana_copy Wrap both src and dst connections with contextlib.closing() so they are explicitly closed before tmp_path.replace(target_path) runs. Without this, sqlite3.Connection's context manager only commits/rolls back but leaves the file handle open, which can cause PermissionError on Windows. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: rename history.grafana.db to history.mt5cli.db in Grafana examples frser-sqlite-datasource blocks paths containing "grafana.db" via its internal blocklist. Rename the recommended published filename in the README, compose comment, and datasource provisioning comment to avoid a blocked/denied datasource for native Windows users. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: update Docker Compose quick-start to pass MT5CLI_DB_PATH The compose.yml already required MT5CLI_DB_PATH via ${MT5CLI_DB_PATH:?...}, but the README still showed bare `docker compose up -d`. Update the section to show the env-var-prefixed invocation and document the .env file alternative.

Grafana Integration for mt5cli
This directory contains example configuration and dashboard files for visualising mt5cli SQLite data in Grafana using the Grafana SQLite datasource plugin.
Prerequisites
- mt5cli installed and able to connect to MetaTrader 5
- Grafana 10+ with the
frser-sqlite-datasourceplugin installed - (Optional) Docker and Docker Compose for the containerised setup
Generating the SQLite database
Collect historical data and snapshot current account state:
# Collect OHLCV history
mt5cli -o history.db collect-history --symbol EURUSD --date-from 2024-01-01 --date-to 2024-12-31
# Create Grafana-ready views and indexes
mt5cli -o history.db grafana-schema
# Snapshot current account, positions, and orders
mt5cli -o history.db snapshot --with-grafana-schema
Publishing a Grafana-readable copy
Grafana reads the SQLite file directly. To avoid read/write conflicts, publish a consistent copy after each update:
mt5cli -o history.db grafana-schema --publish-copy history.mt5cli.db
mt5cli -o history.db snapshot --publish-copy history.mt5cli.db
The --publish-copy option uses the SQLite online backup API, which is safe
even when the source database uses WAL journal mode.
Configuring the datasource path
Edit provisioning/datasources/mt5cli-sqlite.yml and set the path field
to the absolute path of your published .db file:
jsonData:
path: /absolute/path/to/history.mt5cli.db
Running Grafana on Windows (native)
- Download and install Grafana from https://grafana.com/grafana/download/.
- Install the SQLite plugin:
grafana-cli plugins install frser-sqlite-datasource. - Copy
provisioning/datasources/mt5cli-sqlite.ymlinto%ProgramFiles%\GrafanaLabs\grafana\conf\provisioning\datasources\. Do not copyprovisioning/dashboards/mt5cli.yml— it contains a Docker-specific dashboard path that is not valid on Windows. - Import the dashboards from
dashboards/via the Grafana UI (Dashboards → Import → Upload JSON file).
Running with Docker Compose
Set MT5CLI_DB_PATH to the absolute path of your published .db file, then
start the stack:
# From the examples/grafana directory
MT5CLI_DB_PATH=/absolute/path/to/history.mt5cli.db docker compose up -d
Alternatively, create a .env file in examples/grafana/ containing
MT5CLI_DB_PATH=/absolute/path/to/history.mt5cli.db and run
docker compose up -d. Compose refuses to start if the variable is unset or
empty.
Then open http://localhost:3000 (default credentials: admin / admin).
Dashboard overview
| Dashboard | Description |
|---|---|
mt5cli-overview.json |
Account balance, equity, margin, and snapshot freshness |
mt5cli-trades.json |
Trade P/L, win rate, symbol breakdown |
mt5cli-market.json |
OHLCV rates, spreads, and tick volume |
All panel queries use the grafana_* views; they do not read internal storage
tables directly.
Importing dashboards
- Open Grafana and navigate to Dashboards → Import.
- Click Upload JSON file and select one of the files in
dashboards/. - Select the
mt5cli-SQLitedatasource when prompted. - Click Import.
