Hi team -- trying to run

meltano install

on my local (which I rarely do). It's been running for 30 mins (🤯 ) to install 22 plugins, what on earth is this doing behind the scene? Just a bunch of pip installs? 🤔 Can I access logs some where to try understand what's taking so long?

Hi @david_lequin!

Just a bunch of pip installs?

Yes, plus creating virtualenvs

Can I access logs some where to try understand what's taking so long?

If you have

logging.yaml

set up, you can access the debug level logs and they should a bit more information, at least what high level step it's stuck in My guess is the culprit is

dbt

and in particular

dbt-snowflake

, which takes a while to build (I'm not sure if the dbt folks publish wheels). If you're not using snowflake, you can edit the

pip_url

of the

dbt

plugin and get rid of

dbt-snowflake

.

Here's my pip url at the moment:

transformers:
    - name: dbt
      pip_url: dbt-redshift==1.0
