Description

@Di0g00

In pre-relase notes for Grafana 10, it is stated that support for Angular is turned off by default. Hence any plugin not migrated away from Angular will fail to work.

Angular is deprecated and turned off by default for new Grafana Cloud stacks

You are affected if:
You create a new Grafana Cloud stack and intend to use any panel or data source plugins written using the Angular.js JavaScript framework. See the list of Angular plugins.

Background
AngularJS is an old frontend framework that stopped active development many years ago. Because of that, it’s a security risk. AngularJS also requires unsafe-eval in the CSP (Content Security Policy) settings, which also reduces the security level of how javascript is executed in the browser.

Angular plugin support in Grafana is deprecated, meaning it will be removed in a future release. There are still some community and private plugins built using Angular. Starting with v9.0, Grafana has a server configuration option, called angular_support_enabled, that controls whether Angular plugin support is available.

Change in Grafana v10
Angular is disabled by default for all new Grafana Cloud stacks. Existing stacks in Grafana Cloud, Grafana Enterprise on-premise instances, and Grafana OSS instances will not be automatically impacted.

Are there any plans to move PRTG datasource from Angular framework ? Thanks in advance!
