Has anyone cloned a custom pip url from a private git repo? I’ve referenced this documentation but would like to clone a custom pypi package from gitlab with a ssh or com_pat variable. Anyone done something similar or have any ideas?

Hi @drew_ipson Yes. I've used private git repos to install meltano plugins. It works well. I suggest trying a vanilla
pip install
if you need to troubleshoot any errors. Here's an example
pip install
command:
Copy code
pip install <git+ssh://git@github.com/orgname/reponame@refname>

@christoph thank you for your help. I’m assuming the ssh url can be used in the meltano yaml to install those packages?

@drew_ipson Yup. Just use the url from
pip install
in your
meltano.yml
config as the
pip_url
value.
