Project description
Metaphor Connectors
This repository contains a collection of Python-based "connectors" that extract metadata from various sources to ingest into the Metaphor platform.
Installation
This package requires Python 3.8+ installed. You can verify the version on your system by running the following command,
python -V # or python3 on some systems
Once verified, you can install the package using pip,
pip install "metaphor-connectors[all]" # or pip3 on some systems
This will install all the connectors and required dependencies. You can also choose to install only a subset of the dependencies by installing the specific extra, e.g.
pip install "metaphor-connectors[snowflake]"
Similarly, you can also install the package using requirements.txt
or pyproject.toml
.
Docker
We automatically push a docker image to Docker Hub as part of the CI/CD. See this page for more details.
GitHub Action
You can also run the connectors in your CI/CD pipeline using the Metaphor Connectors GitHub Action.
Connectors
Each connector is placed under its own directory under metaphor and extends the metaphor.common.BaseExtractor
class.
