I just added metabase to meltanohub 🚀. Its a very simple first iteration and it uses the container spec feature (Docker is required) thats relatively new. If anyone is interesting - please test it out and let me know if you run into anything or have feedback!

Had a few minutes to dink around before a meeting Ran the install, and got metabase up in <2 min I think. Had to type all the credentials in the app which isn't the most fun but it did run and connect to my db
p
Nice!!! Thanks for trying it out.
v
Yeah I've never played with metabase and found this to be super easy so I've been playing with it for the last 5 minutes or so!
p
Yeah I think we can use the API to add a bunch of the database credentials, etc. eventually. I actually thought the UI onboarding was really nice though
I personally use metabase locally for exploration and we have superset for prod dashboards
v
connecting to the postgres instance was a bit odd for me as I had to go copy paste the
.env
data
but again it took a few minutes so not a big deal
p
yeah I think we'll be able to map those somehow in an EDK wrapper
