Describe the solution you'd like
Review on "redis-app" plugin dependency to redis-datasource v2.2.0 or >v2.1.1
Describe alternatives you've considered
Specifying "GF_INSTALL_PLUGINS" in proper order to override dependency problem. See additional context for working example.
Firstly, Grafana will install redis-datasource v2.1.1; then redis-app v2.2.1 and finally will install redis-datasoruce v2.2.0
However on every startup, redis-app will cause reinstallation of redis-datasource again. This will require a grafana startup script externally to override the behaviour with manual grafana cli plugins install method.
Additional context
Working example for docker-compose.yml Grafana service definition :
grafana:
image: "grafana/grafana:9.5.14"
container_name: grafana
hostname: grafana
user: "0"
volumes:
- ./etc/grafana/grafana.ini:/etc/grafana/grafana.ini

- ./etc/grafana/provisioning/datasources/:/etc/grafana/provisioning/datasources/
- ./data/grafana/:/var/lib/grafana/
