Aspects Extensions#

Aspects is a project that comes with a set of extensions that can be used to extend the different parts of the project.

Superset Assets#

Aspects allows the site operator to programatically define custom Superset assets, such as Databases, Datases, Slices or Dashboard, and override default ones.

See Superset extra assets for more information.

Superset Language#

Superset localization is a work in progress, but you can change the default language and set alternate languages from the currently supported list.

See Superset language settings for more information.

Superset Custom Row Level Security Filters#

If you add new Databases, tables, or Datasets to Superset, you may want to add new row level security filters to restrict access to the data based on things like user roles, or organization.

See Superset extra row level security for more information.

Superset Custom Jinja Filters#

Aspects allows the site operator to add custom jinja filters to Superset which can be used to generate SQL statements based on the current user role or any given input.

In Aspects, those are used to filter the data based on the user course access.

See Superset extra jinja filters for more information.

Superset Custom Roles#

Aspects allows the site operator to add custom Superset roles which can be seen as groups of permissions, those are automatically associated at login.

See Superset extra roles for more information.

Custom Clickhouse SQL#

Aspects allows the site operator to add custom Clickhouse SQL at initialization.

See Clickhouse extra SQL for more information.

Extending DBT#

You can extend the DBT project to install additional packages, and modify the base DBT models which are used by the reports.

See Extending dbt for more information.
