Dev Environment for Caravel on Drill


The goal is create an easy environment with all dependencies to work on getting caravel working with Apache Drill

Steps to Use Image

  • Edit the builddocker.sh and run.sh files and edit the DOCKERIMG and PROJECTDIR variables to match your project (DOCKERIMG should match in both files)
  • Run builddocker.sh - This builds the docker container
  • Run run.sh This drops you into /app/caravel in the container. If this is the first time you've run things, run initial.sh to config things.
  • Caravel will be running now! If you want to reuse config, run caravel runserver -d

Some Caravel Notes

  • We use host networking to make this easier. If you have something running on port 8088 on your docker host, it will conflict.
  • After the initial config (initial.sh) the files for the caravel sqllite DB are created on the host. So even if you stop the image, your sqllite will be maintained.
  • The initial.sh and caravel_config.py is copied into ./working (and thus /app/caravel) everytime you run run.sh. Thus if you want to start form scratch. Just stop the container and rm ./working/*
  • If you make changes to caravel_config.py it will copy to to working each time you run it.
  • I want to explore the Flask caching more, just haven't yet.

PyODBC Notes

  • This container comes with the MapR ODBC Driver and PyODBC (with UnixODBC) Installed
  • To use rename pyodbc_example.py.template to pyodbc_example.py
  • Once renamed, updated the python to use your hostnames, select ZK or DIRECT, and then put in your credentials (for testing)
  • If the file pyodbc_example.py exists, the run.sh will copy it to /app/caravel in the container for testing.
  • This is just a basic demonstration that pyodbc, in the container is working.
