Is there a way to get a list of available extractors from the command line? Searching the internet I found references to a

discover

command, which the newest Meltano seems not to have anymore.

Hi @Max! Yeah,

discover

used to do exactly that, but IIRC it got removed because no-one was really using it (or only using it to check Hub status, which is still possible via

hub ping

). What is your use-case? FWIW, there is this related GitHub issue: https://github.com/meltano/meltano/issues/7657

My use case is that it is hard to get a "list of things" (overview) from a web page. Scrolling a paginated web page sucks and I always have the feeling I overlooked one of those damn icons.

melanto discover extrators|grep -i jira

would have be the expected flow of work for me.

Is this just a preferred way of working thing, or are you trying to use it in a script? I can't say I support the removal of functionality necessarily, but now I just use the Hub search in browser if I'm looking for a specific plugin.

Just a preferred way of working. Or since I'm new to Meltano I assumed this can be done by CLI.

Fair enough, can't fault that. 😅

get

is misleading; I would rather suggest

meltano hub search [--extrators|--loaders]

could be a kind of fuzz search.

Hey, thanks for bringing up the subject! I'm all for improving the CLI experience for interacting with the Hub. I think the biggest blocker for this sort of thing is the fact that the Hub API is currently static so there's no way, for example, to POST a search request.

What about

meltano hub list [--extractors|--loaders|...]

, which you could then pipe to

grep

as in your above example?
