# General

Look into the render api and adjust this for your templates. This [docs entry](https://graphite.readthedocs.io/en/latest/render_api.html#bgcolor) also highlights that for example `bgcolor` can be set on a global basis in graphite itself.

[https://icinga.com/docs/graphite/latest/doc/04-Templates/](https://icinga.com/docs/graphite/latest/doc/04-Templates/)

`urlparams` … and you can even define them on a global basis in your config.ini file.

# Template Examples

The module provides a common set of templates already. Please share your own examples below.

## Full area and min/max values

```auto
[powerprctg.graph]
check_command = “check_batteryprctg”

[powerprctg.metrics_filters]
rta.value = “$service_name_template$.perfdata.$perfdata_label$.value”

[powerprctg.urlparams]
areaMode = "all"
yMin = "0"
yMax = “100”

```
