Meltano Community

tap-fxmacrodata (fxmacrodata variant) 🥈

Open source connector supported by the Meltano Community, a growing community of over 5500+ data engineers.

The tap-fxmacrodata extractor pulls data from FXMacroData that can then be sent to a destination using a loader.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

If you haven't already, follow the initial steps of the Getting Started guide:

  1. Install Meltano
  2. Create your Meltano project

Installation and configuration

  1. Add the tap-fxmacrodata extractor to your project using
    meltano add
    :
  2. meltano add tap-fxmacrodata
  3. Configure the tap-fxmacrodata settings using
    meltano config
    :
  4. meltano config tap-fxmacrodata set --interactive
  5. Test that extractor settings are valid using
    meltano config
    :
  6. meltano config tap-fxmacrodata test

Next steps

USD macro data is public, so the tap runs without an API key. Indicator slugs differ per currency: sync the data_catalogue stream first to see what a currency publishes, then list the slugs you want in indicators.

If you run into any issues, learn how to get help.

Capabilities

The current capabilities for tap-fxmacrodata may have been automatically set when originally added to the Hub. Please review the capabilities when using this extractor. If you find they are out of date, please consider updating them by making a pull request to the YAML file that defines the capabilities for this extractor.

This plugin has the following capabilities:

  • about
  • activate-version
  • batch
  • catalog
  • discover
  • schema-flattening
  • state
  • stream-maps
  • structured-logging

You can override these capabilities or specify additional ones in your meltano.yml by adding the capabilities key.

Settings

The tap-fxmacrodata settings that are known to Meltano are documented below. To quickly find the setting you're looking for, click on any setting name from the list:

You can also list these settings using

meltano config
with the list subcommand:

meltano config tap-fxmacrodata list

You can override these settings or specify additional ones in your meltano.yml by adding the settings key.

Please consider adding any settings you have defined locally to this definition on MeltanoHub by making a pull request to the YAML file that defines the settings for this plugin.

meltano config tap-fxmacrodata set api_key [value]

API URL (api_url)

  • Environment variable: TAP_FXMACRODATA_API_URL

Override the API base URL. Rarely needed.


Configure this setting directly using the following Meltano command:

meltano config tap-fxmacrodata set api_url [value]

Currencies (currencies)

  • Environment variable: TAP_FXMACRODATA_CURRENCIES
  • Default Value: ["USD"]

Currency codes to extract, for example ["USD", "EUR"].


Configure this setting directly using the following Meltano command:

meltano config tap-fxmacrodata set currencies [value]
