This repository is the community “extra shelf” for Munin, collecting hundreds of contributed plugins, templates, and helper scripts beyond the official core. Each plugin focuses on graphing a specific metric—from databases and message queues to hardware sensors, web servers, and custom application counters. The collection spans many languages (Shell, Perl, Python, Ruby) and styles, reflecting the breadth of Munin’s user base and the diversity of systems it monitors. While contributions vary in maturity, most include usage notes and configuration examples so you can get a graph online with minimal trial and error. The repository also serves as a learning resource: you can crib patterns for performance tuning, environment detection, and Munin’s plugin protocol. For operators, it dramatically shortens the path between “I wish I could graph X” and a consistent time-series chart in production.
