In this section, we provide guides and references to use the Singlestore connector.

Configure and schedule Singlestore metadata and profiler workflows from the OpenMetadata UI:

- [Requirements](#requirements)
- [Metadata Ingestion](#metadata-ingestion)
- [Data Profiler](#data-profiler)
- [dbt Integration](#dbt-integration)

## Requirements

To deploy OpenMetadata, check the Deployment guides.

### Python Requirements

To run the Singlestore ingestion, you will need to install:

```bash
pip3 install "openmetadata-ingestion[singlestore]"
```

## Metadata Ingestion

All connectors are defined as JSON Schemas.
[Here](https://github.com/open-metadata/OpenMetadata/blob/main/openmetadata-spec/src/main/resources/json/schema/entity/services/connections/database/singleStoreConnection.json)
you can find the structure to create a connection to Singlestore.

In order to create and run a Metadata Ingestion workflow, we will follow
the steps to create a YAML configuration able to connect to the source,
process the Entities if needed, and reach the OpenMetadata server.

The workflow is modeled around the following
[JSON Schema](https://github.com/open-metadata/OpenMetadata/blob/main/openmetadata-spec/src/main/resources/json/schema/metadataIngestion/workflow.json)

### 1. Define the YAML Config

This is a sample config for Singlestore:

{% codePreview %}

{% codeInfoContainer %}

#### Source Configuration - Service Connection

{% codeInfo srNumber=1 %}

**username**: Specify the User to connect to SingleStore. It should have enough privileges to read all the metadata.

{% /codeInfo %}

{% codeInfo srNumber=2 %}

**password**: Password to connect to SingleStore.

{% /codeInfo %}

{% codeInfo srNumber=3 %}

**hostPort**: Enter the fully qualified hostname and port number for your SingleStore deployment in the Host and Port field.

{% /codeInfo %}

{% codeInfo srNumber=4 %}

**databaseName**: Optional name to give to the database in OpenMetadata. If left blank, we will use default as the database name.

{% /codeInfo %}

{% partial file="/v1.2/connectors/yaml/database/source-config-def.md" /%}

{% partial file="/v1.2/connectors/yaml/ingestion-sink-def.md" /%}

{% partial file="/v1.2/connectors/yaml/workflow-config-def.md" /%}

#### Advanced Configuration

{% codeInfo srNumber=5 %}

**Connection Options (Optional)**: Enter the details for any additional connection options that can be sent to Athena during the connection. These details must be added as Key-Value pairs.

{% /codeInfo %}

{% codeInfo srNumber=6 %}

**Connection Arguments (Optional)**: Enter the details for any additional connection arguments such as security or protocol configs that can be sent to Athena during the connection. These details must be added as Key-Value pairs.

- In case you are using Single-Sign-On (SSO) for authentication, add the `authenticator` details in the Connection Arguments as a Key-Value pair as follows: `"authenticator" : "sso_login_url"`

{% /codeInfo %}


{% /codeInfoContainer %}

{% codeBlock fileName="filename.yaml" %}

```yaml
source:
  type: singlestore
  serviceName: local_singlestore
  serviceConnection:
    config:
      type: SingleStore
```
```yaml {% srNumber=1 %}
      username: username
```
```yaml {% srNumber=2 %}
      password: password
```
```yaml {% srNumber=3 %}
      hostPort: localhost:5432
```
```yaml {% srNumber=4 %}
      # databaseSchema: schema
```
```yaml {% srNumber=5 %}
      # connectionOptions:
      #   key: value
```
```yaml {% srNumber=6 %}
      # connectionArguments:
      #   key: value
```
