To set up the application, run, ideally in a virtualenv:

cd olapy
python setup.py install

or just:

pip install -e .

[OPTIONAL]

you can use Spark instead of Pandas, to do so, you need just to install it:

pip install pyspark

and if you want to go back to pandas just uninstall spark with:

pip uninstall pyspark

Usage

Before running OlaPy, you need to initialize it with:

olapy init

and then you can run the server with:

olapy runserver

and then from excel, open new spreadsheet and go to : Data -> From Other Sources -> From Analysis Services and use http://127.0.0.1:8000/ as server name and click next, then you can chose one of default olapy demo cubes (sales, foodmart…) and finish.

that’s it ! now you can play with data
