Configuring Metabase for Datomic Analytics

  • In the Metabase window, click on "Settings" → "Admin" → "Databases" → "Add database"
  • Configure the connection to Datomic analytics by running the command below. Substitute appropriate values for name, host, port, user, password and catalog:
 Database Type: Presto Name: <give-it-a-name> Host: <host> Port: <port> Database Name: <catalog> Database Username: <user> Database Password: <password> 

Note that:

  • port is 8989 by default
  • The user and password are your Trino server passwords, which default to admin and no password by default
  • catalog is the catalog that you configured when setting up Datomic analytics
