superset-sqlalchemy-gizmosql-adbc-dialect 0.0.9

An Apache Superset compatible SQLAlchemy dialect for connecting to a [GizmoSQL](https://github.com/gizmodata/gizmosql) server with ADBC

Superset SQLAlchemy GizmoSQL ADBC Dialect

Basic Apache Superset compatible SQLAlchemy dialect for GizmoSQL

This package uses a version of SQLAlchemy which is compatible with Apache Superset 5.0.*

[!NOTE] The term "dialect" is used in SQLAlchemy to refer to a specific database backend. See: https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/20/dialects/ for more details. This package uses a DuckDB SQL dialect when sending SQL commmands to the GizmoSQL server.

Installation

Option 1 - from PyPi

$ pip install superset-sqlalchemy-gizmosql-adbc-dialect

Option 2 - from source - for development

git clone https://github.com/gizmodata/superset-sqlalchemy-gizmosql-adbc-dialect

cd superset-sqlalchemy-gizmosql-adbc-dialect

# Create the virtual environment
python3 -m venv .venv

# Activate the virtual environment
. .venv/bin/activate

# Upgrade pip, setuptools, and wheel
pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel

# Install Superset SQLAlchemy GizmoSQL ADBC Dialect - in editable mode with dev dependencies
pip install --editable .[dev]

Note

For the following commands - if you are running from source and using --editable mode (for development purposes) - you will need to set the PYTHONPATH environment variable as follows:

export PYTHONPATH=$(pwd)/src

Usage

Once you've installed this package, you should be able to just use it, as SQLAlchemy does a python path search

Start a GizmoSQL Server - example below - see https://github.com/gizmodata/GizmoSQL for more details

docker run --name gizmosql \
           --detach \
           --rm \
           --tty \
           --init \
           --publish 31337:31337 \
           --env TLS_ENABLED="1" \
           --env GIZMOSQL_PASSWORD="gizmosql_password" \
           --env PRINT_QUERIES="1" \
           --pull missing \
           gizmodata/gizmosql:latest

[!IMPORTANT] The GizmoSQL server must be started with the DuckDB (default) back-end. The SQLite back-end is not supported.

Superset - connection URL example

Here is a example connection URL (for use with Apache Superset):

gizmosql://gizmosql_username:gizmosql_password@localhost:31337?disableCertificateVerification=True&useEncryption=True

To specify a catalog other than the default - you can specify the catalog argument - example:

gizmosql://gizmosql_username:gizmosql_password@localhost:31337?disableCertificateVerification=True&useEncryption=True&catalog=test
