Install

Install Ibis and dependencies for the Druid backend:

Install with the druid extra:

pip install 'ibis-framework[druid]'

And connect:

import ibis

con = ibis.druid.connect()
1
Adjust connection parameters as needed.

Install for Druid:

conda install -c conda-forge ibis-druid

And connect:

import ibis

con = ibis.druid.connect()
1
Adjust connection parameters as needed.

Install for Druid:

mamba install -c conda-forge ibis-druid
