03/01/2023, 8:45 AMHi, I'm having trouble using the tap-csv extractor. Does anyone have an idea why?
In the command line I enter:
Copy code
meltano run tap-csv Copy code
- name: tap-csv
variant: meltanolabs
pip_url: git+<https://github.com/MeltanoLabs/tap-csv.git>
config:
files:
- ARR
- path\to\test.csv
- id
- UTF-8 Copy code
block violates set requirements: Found no end in block set!a

- "UTF-8"Andy Carter
03/01/2023, 12:23 PMWait, don't you need something like this?:
Copy code
- name: tap-csv
variant: meltanolabs
pip_url: git+<https://github.com/MeltanoLabs/tap-csv.git>
config:
files:
- entity: ARR
path: path\to\test.csv
keys:
- id
encoding: UTF-8j

03/01/2023, 1:09 PM@jannis_voigt the run command requires tap/target pairs. If you want to run just the tap use the invoke command. That error message is saying the “block” ie the pair is missing a target

03/01/2023, 1:14 PM@jannis_voigt just to complete what Pat said:
1. "block" means your command block for "meltano run" (I know, I dislike that part of the error message as well)
2. Use "meltano invoke tap-csv" to just invoke the tap and print the output to stdout
3. Or use "meltano run tap-csv target-jsonl" (given that you installed that target before) to test your tap-csv together with meltano "run".
