what are the supported data sources? I saw SQL tables and I imagine flat files, can you write calls to web service endpoints?
From the readme file:
Database Support
Caravel was originally designed on top of Druid.io, but quickly broadened its scope to support other databases through the use of SqlAlchemy, a Python ORM that is compatible with most common databases[1].

Specifically, SQLAlchemy includes dialects out of the box for: Firebird, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Sybase.

And has adapters for Hive, Presto, Redshift and Google BigQuery.
