Hey hey, has anyone thought of doing target-mysql? I found a project with no code here: https://github.com/czardien/target-mysql

No code but it's already version 0.0.4 🤔. I'd like to know what features MySQL is missing (e.g. compared to postgres) that make it not such a great option for warehousing, seeing how it's been largely ignored in that regard.

@keith_siilats https://gitlab.com/autoidm/autoidm-target-mssql , uses ODBC would be a great starting point. Highly recommend updating to the singer-sdk instead of my singer sdk implementation
Tons and tons of love needed but it does work, be careful though it's not super standard. No incremental, only support full table replication, no upserts etc

ok I will try to hack the upserts, I saw you do have the primary keys there already

yeah the rename table call drops them right now. Also you should switch to actual temp tables. I'll throw in issues for these since you're looking at it
mirrored to github as well 😄 https://github.com/AutoIDM/autoidm-target-mssql
