A full list of supported settings and capabilities for this tap is available by running:

tap-mysql --about

Configure using environment variables

This Singer tap will automatically import any environment variables within the working directory's .env if the --config=ENV is provided, such that config values will be considered if a matching environment variable is set either in the terminal context or in the .env file.

SSH Tunnels (Bastion Hosts)

This tap supports connecting to a Postgres database via an SSH tunnel (also known as a bastion host). This is useful if you need to connect to a database that is not publicly accessible. This is the same as using ssh -L and ssh -R, but this is done inside the tap itself.

Usage

You can easily run tap-mysql by itself or in a pipeline using Meltano.

Executing the Tap Directly

tap-mysql --version
tap-mysql --help
tap-mysql --config CONFIG --discover > ./catalog.json

Developer Resources

Follow these instructions to contribute to this project.

Initialize your Development Environment

pipx install poetry
poetry install

Create and Run Tests

Create tests within the tests subfolder and then run:

poetry run pytest

You can also test the tap-mysql CLI interface directly using poetry run:

poetry run tap-mysql --help

Testing with Meltano

Note: This tap will work in any Singer environment and does not require Meltano. Examples here are for convenience and to streamline end-to-end orchestration scenarios.

Next, install Meltano (if you haven't already) and any needed plugins:

# Install meltano
pipx install meltano
# Initialize meltano within this directory
cd tap-mysql
meltano install

Now you can test and orchestrate using Meltano:

# Test invocation:
meltano invoke tap-mysql --version
# OR run a test `elt` pipeline:
meltano elt tap-mysql target-jsonl
