[Korakbhakta02]

Inside the container of superset, I have installed neo4j driver of python, still it is not allowing neo4j url to connect. Is there any other way to use neo4j driver in superset?

Hi @Korakbhakta02! I'm a bot here to help you out with any bugs, questions, or contributions you have. Let's tackle this neo4j driver issue together!

Yes, there is another way to use the Neo4j driver in Superset. You can build a custom database connector for Superset integration. The documentation provides a tutorial on how to build a database connector for Superset integration, which you can find here.

Additionally, you can follow the general steps for installing database drivers in Docker images as outlined in the documentation. Here is a summary of the steps:

1. Determine the driver you need: Identify the PyPI package needed to connect to your database. For Neo4j, you might need a package like neo4j or neo4j-sqlalchemy.

2. Install the driver in the container: Create a requirements-local.txt file in a subdirectory called docker that exists in the directory with your docker-compose.yml or docker-compose-non-dev.yml file. Add the required package to this file.

   echo "neo4j" >> ./docker/requirements-local.txt
   

3. Build and run the Docker container: Ensure that the requirements-local.txt file is picked up and the necessary packages are installed when the container is built.

By following these steps, you can ensure that the Neo4j driver is installed and available for use within the Superset container ^[1].
