JDBC Driver for TigerGraph DB

Question

I am trying to connect to Tigergraph DB from Spark using IntelliJ IDE. Can anyone help with the jdbc driver (.jar) file? I am looking for "com.tigergraph.jdbc.Driver".

I did find below gitHub repository with all the required .java file. But, I am not sure how to use it inside my spark project. https://github.com/tigergraph/ecosys/tree/master/tools/etl/tg-jdbc-driver

Can anyone help me on this?

Answer 1

It can be done quickly. I hope you are familiar with maven and git.

1. [[Command prompt]] git clone https://github.com/tigergraph/ecosys.git
2. Navigate to [[project checkout path]]\ecosys\tools\etl\tg-jdbc-driver
3. execute mvn clean compile install -Dmaven.test.skip=true

and then, once build is okay you will get the JAR in the folder

You can use this JAR afterwards in your project.

Answer 2

according to the GitHub documentation of tg-jdbc-driver repository, you need to build the JAR and then you can include this dependency in your pom.xml and start using it's API.
