Example PostgreSQL database doesn't load in Binder #34

Open ClaytonJY opened 3 years ago

ClaytonJY commented 3 years ago

From the binder link, I can't get PostgreSQL.ipynb to work as expected; when loading the database, I get Error: Failed to find shared library for backend postgresql: image

Is it possible to make this one work with binder?

Hi @ClaytonJY sorry for the delay, I missed the issue somehow. Aahm, I'm not sure, because I'm not a binder expert. What we need is to have a PostgreSQL server running on binder and then pass the right path to it in dbname. I'd say is possible because I know people have done it for Neo4j see example. Unfortunately I don't have the time to work on it now, but I'll happily review a PR! :) If anyone is interested in taking it. Thanks for reporting, I didn't know it wasn't working on binder (but it makes sense, since we haven't done anything to prepare it to do so).
