Hi Akanksha, 

Jesus is teaching today. 

But having chatted to some people on #metrics-grimoire the first step is to set 
up an environment and play with it. To do so, you will need
kibana and elasticsearch - packages for these should be in any distro and can 
be installed via apt-get or yum
The test data sets are at 
http://projects.bitergia.com/xen-project-dashboard/browser/data/db/ 
<http://projects.bitergia.com/xen-project-dashboard/browser/data/db/> (mailing 
lists and git)

There is lots of info on getting Kibana and Elastic search going and you may 
want to check out
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/_installation.html
 
<https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/_installation.html>
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/setup.html 
<https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/setup.html>
Connect all to the test data sets, explore and get familiar with the tools 
Come back with some questions
We can also make the hosted prototype versions of the dashboards available to 
you

Note that the SQL test data sets were created with MetricsGrimoire tools. As 
one of the goals is to use Perceval to do this (which has extra capabilities), 
you may also want to 
Get and build Perceval from https://github.com/grimoirelab/perceval 
<https://github.com/grimoirelab/perceval> 
Explore the test data set SQL structure with an appropriate tool 
Read through the Perceval man pages and do some experimentation and come back 
with some questions

We can then work through the questions and chose appropriate next steps: but 
from that point onwards, we probably need Jesus' input

Regards
Lars
