Proton driver for Metabase

This repo is a forked from https://github.com/ClickHouse/metabase-clickhouse-driver with necessary revisions to better fit streaming processing and Proton.

Configuring

1. Once you've started up Metabase, open http://localhost:3000 , go to add a database and select "proton".
2. You'll need to provide the Host/Port, Database Name, Username and Password.

Build from source

Prerequisites

• Leiningen

Steps

1. Clone and build metabase dependency jar.

   git clone https://github.com/metabase/metabase
   cd metabase
   clojure -X:deps prep
   cd modules/drivers
   clojure -X:deps prep
   cd ../..
   ./bin/build.sh

2. Clone metabase-proton-driver repo

   cd modules/drivers
   git clone https://github.com/timeplus-io/metabase-proton-driver

3. Prepare metabase dependencies

   cp ../../target/uberjar/metabase.jar metabase-proton-driver/
   cd metabase-proton-driver
   mkdir repo
   lein pom
   mvn deploy:deploy-file -Durl=file:repo -DgroupId=metabase-core -DartifactId=metabase-core -Dversion=1.40 -Dpackaging=jar -Dfile=metabase.jar

4. Build the jar

   LEIN_SNAPSHOTS_IN_RELEASE=true DEBUG=1 lein uberjar

5. Let's assume we download metabase.jar from the Metabase jar to ~/metabase/ and we built the project above. Copy the built jar to the Metabase plugins directly and run Metabase from there!

   cd ~/metabase/
   java -jar metabase.jar

You should see a message on startup similar to:
