Deploy SuperSet??

Apache Superset is a powerful, open-source data visualization tool. In this article, we’ll walk through the process of setting up Apache Superset locally using Docker Compose.

Why SuperSet?

Superset provides:

• A no-code interface for building charts quickly
• A powerful, web-based SQL Editor for advanced querying
• A lightweight semantic layer for quickly defining custom dimensions and metrics
• Out of the box support for nearly any SQL database or data engine
• A wide array of beautiful visualizations to showcase your data, ranging from simple bar charts to geospatial visualizations
• Lightweight, configurable caching layer to help ease database load
• Highly extensible security roles and authentication options
• An API for programmatic customization
• A cloud-native architecture designed from the ground up for scale

Before we begin, ensure that you have Docker Engine and Docker Compose installed on your Linux or Mac OS computer. Please note that Superset does not have official support for Windows but i tried it and it works so venture at your own peril ?? .

1. Clone Superset's GitHub repository

Clone Superset's repo in your terminal with the following command:

git clone https://github.com/apache/superset.git        

2. Launch Superset Through Docker Compose

Navigate to the folder you created in step 1: (in my case its superset)

cd superset        

#Option 1 (Development) When working on master branch, run the following commands to run development mode using docker compose:

docker compose up        

#Option 2 (Production)When working on master branch, run the following commands to run production mode using docker compose:

docker-compose -f docker-compose-non-dev.yml pull
docker-compose -f docker-compose-non-dev.yml up        

3. Log in to Superset

Your local Superset instance also includes a Postgres server to store your data and is already pre-loaded with some example datasets that ship with Superset. You can access Superset now via your web browser by visiting https://localhost:8088.

Log in with the default username and password:

username: admin

password: admin

Some Examples:

And that’s it! You’ve successfully set up Apache Superset on Docker. Now you can start exploring your data with this powerful tool.

Go Ahead and Visualize !
