Hey all, wondering if anyone has recent experience getting

tap-quickbooks

working in Meltano. I’ve got it working with

invoke

by manually passing in the properties file, but I’d really like to get it to sync via

elt

to

target-postgres

. I saw the threads from a year ago and 8 months ago, but it looks like the general consensus was that you could use the tap a la:

meltano invoke tap-quickbooks \
  --properties .meltano/run/tap-quickbooks/tap.properties.json \
  --catalog .meltano/run/tap-quickbooks/tap.properties.json > records.json

New to meltano + singer + etc, so looking for advice on how to either get something like the following

meltano elt tap-quickbooks target-postgres

working, or at least how to feed

records.json

from the first example to the

target-postgres

Thoughts?

what does your meltano.yml look like? I’m looking at https://hub.meltano.com/extractors/tap-quickbooks and it seems like the metadata is incorrect. If you add:

capabilities:
- properties
- discover
- state

to the definition of tap-quickbooks then it should work. Meltano handles the generation of the catalog/properties json for you. Also note that

properties

and

catalog

are synonymous, but

properties

is deprecated in favor of

catalog

.

@david_welch I'm not sure if that solves your problem but the change is merged so if you run

meltano lock tap-quickbooks --update

you should pull in the updated definition (assuming your on meltano version >=2.0)

Whoa awesome, thanks @pat_nadolny and @taylor!
