Has anyone out there built a tap requiring certificate authentication? What's the recommended best practice for storing a certificate in your meltano project? The code I'm looking to bake into a tap is linked below Where

config['private_key_file']

refers to a path that can be accessed using

open

(or I guess

smart_open

if I were thinking of using remote storage)

I think a pointer to the file path the cert is at is the best. But I've also implemented it where we provide the whole cert via

config

so to each their own. There's a few implementations out there https://github.com/MeltanoLabs/target-postgres does both actually

ssh_tunnel.private_key

is the literal private_key, and

ssl_client_private_key

is a file path
