Testing with Meltano

Note: This tap will work in any Singer environment and does not require Meltano. Examples here are for convenience and to streamline end-to-end orchestration scenarios.

Your project comes with a custom meltano.yml project file already created. Go ahead and install Meltano if you haven't already.

1. Install all plugins

   meltano install

2. Check that the extractor is working properly

   meltano invoke tap-canny --version

3. Execute an ELT pipeline

   meltano run tap-canny target-jsonl
