Hello, i’m trying to install target-postgres in my local maching using the command
meltano add loader target-postgres
but i have the error in the screen-shot. does someone know what’s the problem and how to solve it ? i’m using meltano 1.79.1 and python 3.9.6. I tried to find a solution but couldn't find one for now
This is the whole output of the command

Hi @hicham_rahj! You may be missing some postgres dependencies: https://github.com/datamill-co/target-postgres#install

Oh i thought those will be installed automatically, you're right i don't have postgres locally. Thank you i'll try that.
But the tap-postgres works normally without installing postgres locally. I use docker container to connect to a postgres database. Do i still have to install postgres locally in order for the target to work ?
didn't work for me, still getting the same error as before even after installing all the dependencies
worked for me when installing in a python:3.9 container so i guess i have some dependency problem in my local machine

I would think so. The python container likely includes a dev dependency that your computer is missing
