Notebooks

It's pretty easy to access ApertureDB via notebooks after installing and setting up Python SDK as explained here.

Specific Flavors of Notebooks

Google Colab

Instead of entering your connection details every time you restart your kernel, you can setup colab secrets corresponding to ApertureDB as a one time activity. The easiest way to do that in Google Colab is to set the APERTUREDB_JSON secret. After you have done this once, any calls to CommonLibrary.create_connector() should work seamlessly.

Jupyter Notebooks

Setting up (or updating) the virtual environment for the python client can sometimes cause version dependencies mismatches. This is because the ApertureDB SDK does not pin the version numbers of some of its dependencies, and those get released in separate cycles.

There's a docker image that is built during the CI process and is a guaranteed stable environment in such a case. This image also includes a installation of Jupyter Lab. It can be run as follows

docker run --interactive --tty aperturedata/aperturedb-notebook

If you are using the Community edition for prototyping, you can update the Docker compose file to include this notebook:
