Business Text for Grafana

This project was originally contributed by Volkov Labs - thanks for all your great work!

We have republished under the same plugin ID, keeping the community signature. This means you can simply update your plugin version. A new ID would have required manual updates to your dashboards. For additional information on the changes, see the Notices.

The Business Text panel plugin allows you to construct a text visualization template from the values of a dataset returned by a data source query.
