While docker-compose is probably easiest (and smoother/faster than ever), the other methods of installation are not deprecated, and people use them all the time. Maybe you can file issues about the problems you ran into, or connect with some folks on slack to troubleshoot? |
If we can help whatever situation is happening on your machine, maybe we can add some helpful documentation steps rather than kill off these installation methods. |
When I left installation steps, these were issues
It would install apache-superset as pip dependency.
Server starts - (UI is not identical). After you give creds which you created while init, you see blank screen only two boxes are show. |
@surapuramakhil I made some updates to the PyPI instructions, do you have feedback on this PR: https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/58c25238fee96c89203184dd2badda7a4f06aa35/docs/docs/installation/pypi.mdx |
Last week I tried to install from PyPI following Superset's docs and it did not work. That is a bad state of affairs, I agree. And this PR helped bring my attention to that. But I think the appropriate fix is to improve those instructions, not to mark those installation methods as deprecated. I'm going to close this PR in light of that. @surapuramakhil your feedback on my linked PR was already helpful, thank you! And I welcome further suggestions from you or anyone else as to how to improve those installation instructions. |
SUMMARY
I have spent multiple hours in figuring out setting up my local superset (development) setup.
I have followed both docs https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
and https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/master/docs/docs/contributing/local-backend.mdx
Ended up with a bunch of errors. (tried fixing, but chain it continuing) lot of breaking stuff.
I have even tried PyPI installation methods (even that method breaks) while delivering frontend content. Marked deprecated
Current way is https://superset.apache.org/docs/installation/docker-compose#option-1---for-an-interactive-development-environment
Updated same in other places.
