Description

bug sqlalchemy

When using the SQLAlchemy dialect, I get this error when my program closes after running that code:

import os

from sqlalchemy import create_engine


server_hostname = os.getenv("DATABRICKS_SERVER_HOSTNAME")
http_path = os.getenv("DATABRICKS_HTTP_PATH")
access_token = os.getenv("DATABRICKS_TOKEN")
engine = create_engine(
    f"databricks://token:{access_token}@{server_hostname}?http_path={http_path}&catalog=hive_metastore&schema=default",
)
with engine.connect() as connection:
    pass
