Setup

Before using this extension, you need to configure it with your DataHub URLs:

1. Set your DataHub frontend URL (e.g., https://datahub.yourdomain.com)
2. Set your DataHub GraphQL API endpoint (e.g., https://datahub-gms.yourdomain.com/api/graphql)

Finding Your DataHub Endpoints

Frontend URL

This is the URL you typically use to access DataHub in your browser. Common patterns include:

• https://datahub.yourdomain.com
• https://yourdomain.com/datahub
• For locally hosted instances: http://localhost:9002

GraphQL API Endpoint

This is the endpoint for DataHub's metadata service API. Common patterns include:

• https://datahub-gms.yourdomain.com/api/graphql
• https://yourdomain.com/datahub/api/graphql
• Same domain as frontend: https://datahub.yourdomain.com/api/graphql
• For locally hosted instances: http://localhost:8080/api/graphql

Not sure about your endpoints?

• Ask your DataHub administrator or DevOps team
• If you have access to your DataHub's deployment configuration, check the DATAHUB_GMS_HOST and DATAHUB_FRONTEND_HOST environment variables
• Try opening your frontend URL + /api/graphql in a browser - if you see a GraphQL interface, that's your GraphQL endpoint

Usage

• dh [query] - Search for anything in DataHub and open results in your browser
• dhdataset - Find specific datasets with interactive results
  1. Type dhdataset and press Enter/Return
  2. In the search interface that appears, type your dataset query
  3. Results will update as you type
  4. Select a dataset to see available actions

Troubleshooting

If you encounter connection issues:

• Verify that your endpoints are accessible from your machine
• Ensure you have the correct authentication set up if your DataHub instance requires it
• Check that your DataHub version is compatible (this extension works with DataHub v0.8.0+)
