How does meltano detect if a plugin is custom nor not? I explicitly set

namespace:

on

tap-gitlab

(the meltano fork from discovery.yml) and now it tells me that the tap doesn't support state and is no longer doing incremental runs. My hunch is that now meltano is treating it as a custom plugin and wants me to set

capabilities:

@julian_knight You've got it: Meltano will only look for a plugin's definition in

discovery.yml

if the entry in

meltano.yml

does not have a

namespace

. So setting a

namespace

means it'll assume your local/custom definition is the complete one.

Ultimately I want to change the schema that gets used in

target-postgres

@julian_knight Have you considered directly setting

target-postgres

's

schema

setting, in

meltano.yml

or using

PG_SCHEMA

when running this pipeline?

Got it. I do like having different schemas per tap to avoid namespace conflicts. It seems like the easiest way short term is to use custom plugins. Thanks!

Sounds good!
