Add winkerberos support

Open RiviqVH opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I am unable to install dbt-impala on a Windows machine from pip, because of the dependency on the kerberos package, which cannot be installed on Windows.

In order to support dbt-impala on Windows, it would be nice to have the winkerberos package instead (see this thread).

Note that my PR (#141) solves this issue by simply removing the kerberos requirement from the setup, but does not implement winkerberos in any way.

Note that there is a PR in impyla about using winkerberos: https://github.com/cloudera/impyla/pull/504

I was hesitant to merge it as I was unable to test it, but it seems safe to fallback to winkerberos if kerberos is not found. Doing this in impyla should allow dbt-impala to work with winkerberos.
