Backend superset code changes not showing


i don't have that much experience and i'm trying to get around the superset code.

i'm stuck trying to make some little changes here and there and seeing it reflected in superset.

changes made in backend, but not getting them in the front

for example, in superset/views/utils.py, any change in the payload in bootstrap_user_data does not reflect on the data_bootstrap the frontend recieves, not sure why.

I'm running the backend with FLASK_ENV=development superset run -p 8088 --reload --debugger and the front with npm run dev-server as per documentation instructions.

Can someone help me out? Am I missing something?


Solution

  • I found the problem. I had installed superset via pip install apache-superset instead of following the instructions, which point to installing it via pip install -e .

    Found about it by adding a 1/0 to a python file and not seeing everything explode, so I knew there was a problem around there.
