PyAirbyte

PyAirbyte brings the power of Airbyte to every Python developer.

Secrets Management

PyAirbyte can auto-import secrets from the following sources:

1. Environment variables.
2. Variables defined in a local .env ("Dotenv") file.
3. Google Colab secrets.
4. Manual entry via getpass.

Note: Additional secret store options may be supported in the future. More info here.

Retrieving Secrets

from airbyte_lib import get_secret, SecretSource

source = get_connection("source-github")
source.set_config(
   "credentials": {
      "personal_access_token": get_secret("GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"),
   }
)

The get_secret() function accepts an optional source argument of enum type SecretSource. If omitted or set to SecretSource.ANY, PyAirbyte will search all available secrets sources. If source is set to a specific source, then only that source will be checked. If a list of SecretSource entries is passed, then the sources will be checked using the provided ordering.

By default, PyAirbyte will prompt the user for any requested secrets that are not provided via other secret managers. You can disable this prompt by passing prompt=False to get_secret().

Connector compatibility

To make a connector compatible with PyAirbyte, the following requirements must be met:

• The connector must be a Python package, with a pyproject.toml or a setup.py file.
• In the package, there must be a run.py file that contains a run method. This method should read arguments from the command line, and run the connector with them, outputting messages to stdout.
• The pyproject.toml or setup.py file must specify a command line entry point for the run method called source-<connector name>. This is usually done by adding a console_scripts section to the pyproject.toml file, or a entry_points section to the setup.py file. For example:

[tool.poetry.scripts]
source-my-connector = "my_connector.run:run"

setup(
    ...
    entry_points={
        'console_scripts': [
            'source-my-connector = my_connector.run:run',
        ],
    },
    ...
)

To publish a connector to PyPI, specify the pypi section in the metadata.yaml file. For example:

data:
 # ...
 remoteRegistries:
   pypi:
     enabled: true
     packageName: "airbyte-source-my-connector"

Validating source connectors

To validate a source connector for compliance, the airbyte-lib-validate-source script can be used. It can be used like this:

airbyte-lib-validate-source —connector-dir . -—sample-config secrets/config.json

The script will install the python package in the provided directory, and run the connector against the provided config. The config should be a valid JSON file, with the same structure as the one that would be provided to the connector in Airbyte. The script will exit with a non-zero exit code if the connector fails to run.

For a more lightweight check, the --validate-install-only flag can be used. This will only check that the connector can be installed and returns a spec, no sample config required.
