I have some problems regarding the local use of tap-athena Let me describe, When using the meltanolabs tap-athena I follow this steps: 1. I define meltano.yml with this config

plugins:
  extractors:
  - name: tap-athena
    variant: meltanolabs
    pip_url: git+<https://github.com/MeltanoLabs/tap-athena.git>

2. Run meltano install 3. I define the environment variables 4. I run a discover with

meltano invoke tap-athena --discover

and it works normally (image 1) 5. Now I create a folder called

custom

and clone the git repository with

git clone <https://github.com/MeltanoLabs/tap-athena.git>

6. Delete the meltano environment with

rm -rf .meltano

7. I set meltano.yml to the settings for local execution

plugins:
  extractors:
  - name: tap-athena
    namespace: tap_athena
    pip_url: -e ./custom/tap-athena
    executable: tap-athena

8. I install the meltano tools with

meltano install

and works well 9. I run a discover with

meltano invoke tap-athena --discover

and the tap cannot get the same variables (image 2)

You need to define

settings

for the custom plugin in the

meltano.yml

(for non-custom plugins, these are provided in a

.lock

file):

plugins:
  extractors:
  - name: tap-athena
    namespace: tap_athena
    pip_url: -e ./custom/tap-athena
    executable: tap-athena
    settings:
    - name: ...
    - name: ...
      kind: ...
    - name: ...
      value: ...

oh, thanks this works well now I have another problem that only occurs on the local tap (following the same steps of previous explanation) command: meltano select tap-athena --list --all image 1 -> remote repo image 2 and 3 -> local repo

Maybe an artifact of setting

executable

where you might not need/want it? Try removing that line and running

meltano install --clean extractor tap-athena

this command not solve my problem but defining the capabilities in meltano.yml works well! i follow the same logic of ur previous tip thank u so much
