Error: no such option: --app

[vibeesh]

When i followed the documentation https://superset.incubator.apache.org/installation.html to install the superset (Cloud-native! - Start with Docker)
in the third step docker-compose run --rm superset ./docker-init.sh
i am getting an error
WARNING: Image for service superset was built because it did not already exist. To rebuild this image you must use docker-compose build or docker-compose up --build.

• '[' 1 -ne 0 ']'
• exec ./docker-init.sh
• flask fab create-admin --app superset
  Error: no such option: --app

I tried with multiple machines and the result was same. I cannot continue further due to this error.

under the dir incubator-superset/contrib/docker, follow these:

1. add this line - ./docker-init.sh:/home/superset/docker-init.sh to docker-compose.yml
2. change lask fab create-admin --app superset to fabmanager create-admin --app superset in ./docker-init.sh
3. run docker-compose run --rm superset ./docker-init.sh again

Hi @vibeesh,

My bad, submitted a PR to fix it. Can you please change docker-init.sh by correcting flask fab create-admin --app superset to flask fab create-admin

Hi,

Thanks @dpgaspar for this fix.

Don't forget docker rmi superset_superset before the docker-compose run

But still, it pops an other error, I think easy to fix :

Usage: flask fab create-admin [OPTIONS]

Error: Could not locate a Flask application. You did not provide the "FLASK_APP" environment variable, and a "wsgi.py" or "app.py" module was not found in the current directory.

Here the options for create-admin:

Usage: flask fab create-admin [OPTIONS]

  Creates an admin user

Options:
  --username TEXT
  --firstname TEXT
  --lastname TEXT
  --email TEXT
  --password TEXT
  --help            Show this message and exit.

It's not about the parameters, as the message says, it needs export FLASK_APP=superset before the create-admin to work.

So I did it, but it's still got an other error:

I've retried with ascii safe chars, got this message:

Usage: flask fab create-admin [OPTIONS]

Error: Failed to find Flask application or factory in module "superset". Use "FLASK_APP=superset:name to specify one.

I've tested export FLASK_APP=superset:app in the docker-init.sh but without success:

Usage: flask fab create-admin [OPTIONS]

Error: module 'superset' has no attribute 'app'

[Haks1]

I've tried with fabmanager create-admin --app superset and I got this error:
"There is no appbuilder var on your package, you can use appbuilder parameter to config"

(I got also this same error if I try on branch 0.30)
