Updating superset frontend on production

[felipeferreiraads]

Hi guys,

I'm trying to update production build assets for superset, but It looks like it's not updating.
Steps I'm doing:

• Updated the code with the dev-server command: working great, had the updates normally.
• Built the assets for production with npm run build command: it updates the assets on superset/static/assets

But when I build the a docker image, or get the app up with docker compose non-dev file, I'm getting the original version of the frontend. What can I do to get the frontend updated whitout have to run the frontend separately?

Hi Team,
I'm also facing the same issue.
I have tried creating custom plugins.

Hey.. I am also facing same issue.
I deleted the volume as well. But, result is same after bringing up non-dev server.

Got the reason. It's pulling the frontend code from dockerhub image.

in docker-compose-non-dev.yml, check the line,
x-superset-image: &superset-image apache/superset:${TAG:-latest-dev}

So it's not building from updated source code in local.

Perfect remark, have you found a solution to modify the frontend in production ?

Thanks

Hey, Sorry.
Actually, I am able to build and deploy on our sandbox server. But later, plans changed and using superset is dropped, and now I forgot what I had done.

But I have added the docker-compose-non-dev-local.yml file to run on the Sandbox server.

But even here on your local yml; you didn’t change source repository, it comes from apache/superset :

I had to do something similar to what OP was struggling with. I added some custom geojsons for the country map chart.

I compiled my own docker image with the changes using the following command:

docker build -t my-custom-superset .

---

And then inside my docker-compose-non-dev.yml file changed:

x-superset-image: &superset-image apachesuperset.docker.scarf.sh/apache/superset:${TAG:-latest}

to

x-superset-image: &superset-image my-custom-superset:latest
