Airbyte Python CDK and Low-Code CDK
Airbyte Python CDK is a framework for building Airbyte API Source Connectors. It provides a set of classes and helpers that make it easy to build a connector against an HTTP API (REST, GraphQL, etc), or a generic Python source connector.
Building Connectors with the CDK
If you're looking to build a connector, we highly recommend that you first
start with the Connector Builder.
It should be enough for 90% connectors out there. For more flexible and complex connectors, use the
low-code CDK and SourceDeclarativeManifest.
For more information on building connectors, please see the Connector Development guide on docs.airbyte.com.
Python CDK Overview
Airbyte CDK code is within airbyte_cdk directory. Here's a high level overview of what's inside:
airbyte_cdk/connector_builder. Internal wrapper that helps the Connector Builder platform run a declarative manifest (low-code connector). You should not use this code directly. If you need to run aSourceDeclarativeManifest, take a look atsource-declarative-manifestconnector implementation instead.airbyte_cdk/cli/source_declarative_manifest. This module defines thesource-declarative-manifest(aka "SDM") connector execution logic and associated CLI.airbyte_cdk/destinations. Basic Destination connector support! If you're building a Destination connector in Python, try that. Some of our vector DB destinations likedestination-pineconeare using that code.airbyte_cdk/modelsexposeairbyte_protocol.modelsas a part ofairbyte_cdkpackage.airbyte_cdk/sources/concurrent_sourceis the Concurrent CDK implementation. It supports reading data from streams concurrently per slice / partition, useful for connectors with high throughput and high number of records.airbyte_cdk/sources/declarativeis the low-code CDK. It works on top of Airbyte Python CDK, but provides a declarative manifest language to define streams, operations, etc. This makes it easier to build connectors without writing Python code.airbyte_cdk/sources/file_basedis the CDK for file-based sources. Examples include S3, Azure, GCS, etc.
