Apache Drill - connection to Drill in Embedded Mode [java]

Question

I want to connect to Drill by Java app, and so far I was trying to use JDBC to do it and I'm using example from https://github.com/vicenteg/DrillJDBCExample, but... when I change DB_URL static variable to "jdbc:drill:zk=local" and start app i get exception:

java.sql.SQLNonTransientConnectionException: Running Drill in embedded mode using Drill's jdbc-all JDBC driver Jar file alone is not supported.

and so far I didn't found any workaround. Any idea how to connect to Drill in embedded mode? I don't want to set up distributed mode so far.

There is truly not much about it on the web.

Any help would be appreciated!

If you are connecting to a local embedded instance(without Zookeeper), you should use drillbit host directly like:

jdbc:drill:drillbit=<drillbit-host>:[port]

eg: jdbc:drill:drillbit=localhost
