stratabi 1.0.1

StrataBI Developer Edition — a local, source-available BI runtime that runs on your machine against your own AWS data plane. Governed by the Shaleio Guild Community License (SGCL) v1.0.

StrataBI — Developer Edition

A client-owned business-intelligence runtime for AWS. This is the local developer edition: you run the StrataBI app on your own machine (a plain Python process on localhost:8050 — no Docker, no Fargate) wired to a real AWS data plane (Athena · Lambda · S3 · DynamoDB) in your own AWS account. It's built for module development, dashboard authoring, and ad-hoc analytics.

License — please read first

StrataBI Developer Edition is source-available, governed by the Shaleio Guild Community License (SGCL), Version 1.0 — see LICENSE.md (canonical copy: LICENSE.docx).

• It is not Apache, MIT, BSD, GPL, or any other OSI-approved open-source license, and is not "open source."
• Use is subject to the SGCL. In particular, the SGCL permits self-managed developer and evaluation use, and prohibits resale, white-labeling, managed/hosted service offerings, competing commercial offerings, and use of Enterprise-only deployment patterns (including Managed Application Hosting) without a separate commercial license.
• The Primary Runtime deployment boundaries and Enterprise-Feature restrictions in the SGCL apply. This README is a convenience summary and does not replace the license text.

Bundled third-party components (the Monaco editor and Plotly.js, both MIT) are acknowledged in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.

Costs & support. StrataBI Dev runs against your AWS account — you are responsible for all AWS and third-party costs it incurs. The Developer Edition is provided without support and without any SLA.

Two ways to install

A. pipx (local runtime)

pipx install stratabi
stratabi --check      # preflight: deps, AWS creds/region, STRATABI_* settings
stratabi              # serves http://127.0.0.1:8050

The runtime needs a data plane in your account and a few STRATABI_* settings. Get them either with the CLI (below) or manually (Path B).

With StrataCTL (optional — provisions the data plane for you)

pipx install stratactl
stratactl bootstrap --profile <aws-profile> --region <aws-region>   # one-time: StrataCI
stratactl dev install                                               # deploy the Dev data plane (HQ-free)
stratactl dev configure-local                                       # write non-secret .env (no AWS keys)
stratabi                                                        # run the app

Developer Edition installation via StrataCTL never contacts StrataHQ and requires no license contract — the artifact comes from a public GitHub release, your own S3, or the conventional bucket key.

B. Manual — no StrataCTL required

You can inspect and run everything by hand:

# 1) code + venv
git clone https://github.com/shaleio/stratabi-dev && cd stratabi-dev
python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate      # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate
pip install -e .                                        # or: pip install stratabi

# 2) data plane (OpenTofu 1.6+ / Terraform 1.6+) — creates S3/Athena/Glue/DynamoDB + 2 Lambdas
cd infra
cp terraform.tfvars.example terraform.tfvars           # edit region / name_prefix
tofu init && tofu apply
tofu output -raw env_file_preview >> ../.env           # ready-made STRATABI_* block
cd ..

# 3) credentials — set AWS_PROFILE (or keys) + AWS_REGION in .env, attach the emitted
#    data-plane policy to your IAM identity (see infra outputs), then:
stratabi

The app loads a local .env at startup. See .env.example for the full annotated list of settings.

CLI

stratabi [--host 127.0.0.1] [--port 8050] [--debug] [--check] [--version]

• Binds to loopback by default — this is a local developer tool with no built-in auth. Use --host 0.0.0.0 only in a trusted environment (e.g. a WorkSpaces desktop); do not expose it publicly.
• --check validates dependencies, AWS credentials/region, and required STRATABI_* settings, then exits — no network calls.
• Health endpoint: GET /healthz → {"status":"ok"}.

Requirements

• Python 3.11+
• An AWS account + credentials (standard boto3 provider chain)
• OpenTofu 1.6+ or Terraform 1.6+ to stand up the data plane

Works the same on a local machine, an AWS WorkSpaces desktop, or CloudShell — all permitted developer environments under the SGCL.

ForgeWorks demo

A first-party synthetic demo — ForgeWorks Distribution (fictional company, all data synthetic) — that runs two ways from the same canonical dataset.

Quick Demo (validates the local StrataBI experience). No AWS, no credentials, no network — deterministic data baked into static blocks.

stratabi demo quick            # generate + open the Quick Demo
stratabi demo generate         # generate assets only (no launch)
stratabi demo status
stratabi demo remove-local     # remove local demo assets

Badge in the UI: ForgeWorks Quick Demo — Embedded synthetic data.

AWS Demo (validates the customer-owned Athena data plane). Uploads the same data to your StrataBI Dev data plane and queries it through Athena. Explicit and namespaced; also available via stratactl dev demo.

stratabi demo aws install      # confirm before creating anything (--yes to skip)
stratabi demo aws status
stratabi demo aws remove

What it creates: CSVs under s3://<your-bucket>/demo/forgeworks/v1/, an isolated Glue database stratabi_dev_demo with explicit external tables (no crawler), and the forgeworks_athena_demo dashboard. Expected AWS services: S3, Glue, Athena.

Cost notice: uploading synthetic CSVs and creating Glue tables in your account, and running Athena queries, may incur small AWS charges. No data is transmitted to Shaleio.

Remove it: stratabi demo aws remove deletes only the ForgeWorks demo namespace (its S3 prefix, its Glue tables/database, its dashboard) — never the StrataBI Dev data plane or any non-demo data.

Synthetic-data statement: ForgeWorks Distribution is fictional. All data is synthetic. Any resemblance to real entities or records is coincidental.

Quick Demo validates the local StrataBI experience. AWS Demo validates the customer-owned Athena data plane.

What's in the box (and what isn't)

Intentionally slimmer than the hosted Enterprise edition: no admin console, no AI splash, no RBAC, no favorites/pinned overlays. The infra/ here provisions only the data plane — no ECS/ALB/VPC/ECR. Managed/hosted deployment is an Enterprise pattern (SGCL §5.6). Uninstall by destroying the data plane (tofu destroy in infra/, or stratactl dev uninstall); this removes the system resources you created.

Building modules

Modules are customer-owned compute extensions and are not provisioned by this core infra. Build one from the templates, deploy its Lambda, upload its module.json under the analyst/modules/ prefix in the system bucket, and register it in the *_module_registry DynamoDB table. Full contract + examples: https://shaleio.com/docs.

Building the data-plane bundle (maintainers)

python build_module_bundle.py --out dist
# → dist/stratabi_dev-<version>-module.zip + .sha256 + release manifest (deterministic)

Development

pip install -e '.[dev]'         # pytest/build/twine
python -m pytest                # tests
python -m build                 # wheel + sdist

Versioning

Shaleio versions are Major.Sprint.Patch, not SemVer. The middle number is the Shaleio sprint the release was cut in — a shared 2-week clock across the whole ecosystem (Sprint 0 begins 2026-07-27), so it is the same for every Shaleio project released in that sprint. PATCH increments within a sprint; MAJOR is a deliberate milestone. The versions are still valid MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH triples, so SemVer-based tooling parses them fine — the middle number just carries ecosystem meaning.
