[4/7] RUN pip install -r requirements.txt:
0.738 ERROR: c:\users\user\documents\github\datawarehouse_v1\meltano\taps\tap-jobdiva is not a valid editable requirement. It should either be a path to a local project or a VCS URL

I'm getting this error while attempting to build my docker image. I have my custom tap in taps\tap-jobdiva and can install it fine when I run "meltano install extractors" from the CLI - but it's failing to install in my image. The install looks like this:

-e c:\users\user\documents\github\datawarehouse_v1\meltano\taps\tap-jobdiva

in my requirements.txt and like this:

pip_url: -e .\\taps\\tap-jobdiva

in my

meltano.yml

. Any ideas?

You probably don't need to put it in

requirements.txt

if you are also installing Meltano in your image, and instead use

meltano install

to install your plugins.

Got it - after excluding from my requirements.txt I got this error

=> => # ERROR: .apsap-jobdiva is not a valid editable requirement. It should either be a path to a local project or a VCS URL

Is docker building the path to the tap wrong?

So your dev environment is windows and your image is linux-based, right? I think some of the characters in

pip_url: -e .\\taps\\tap-jobdiva

are interpreted as tabs 😅 so

.\\taps\\tap-jobdiva -> .apsap-jobdiva

. Would using forward slashes work in your windows environment, i.e.

pip_url: -e ./taps/tap-jobdiva

?

checking it now 🫡
