Run Airbyte Connector using the CLI	/connectors/pipeline/airbyte/cli

Run Airbyte using the metadata CLI

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

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

• Requirements
• Metadata Ingestion

Requirements

To deploy OpenMetadata, check the Deployment guides.

To run the Ingestion via the UI you'll need to use the OpenMetadata Ingestion Container, which comes shipped with custom Airflow plugins to handle the workflow deployment.

Python Requirements

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

pip3 install "openmetadata-ingestion[airbyte]"

Metadata Ingestion

All connectors are defined as JSON Schemas. Here you can find the structure to create a connection to Airbyte.

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

1. Define the YAML Config

This is a sample config for Airbyte:

source:
  type: airbyte
  serviceName: airbyte_source
  serviceConnection:
    config:
      type: Airbyte
      hostPort: http://localhost:8000
  sourceConfig:
    config:
      type: PipelineMetadata
      # includeLineage: true
      # pipelineFilterPattern:
      #   includes:
      #     - pipeline1
      #     - pipeline2
      #   excludes:
      #     - pipeline3
      #     - pipeline4
sink:
  type: metadata-rest
  config: {}
workflowConfig:
  # loggerLevel: DEBUG  # DEBUG, INFO, WARN or ERROR
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: <OpenMetadata host and port>
    authProvider: <OpenMetadata auth provider>

Source Configuration - Service Connection

• hostPort: Pipeline Service Management UI URL

Source Configuration - Source Config

The sourceConfig is defined here:

• dbServiceName: Database Service Name for the creation of lineage, if the source supports it.
• pipelineFilterPattern and chartFilterPattern: Note that the pipelineFilterPattern and chartFilterPattern both support regex as include or exclude. E.g.,

pipelineFilterPattern:
  includes:
    - users
    - type_test

Sink Configuration

To send the metadata to OpenMetadata, it needs to be specified as type: metadata-rest.

Workflow Configuration

The main property here is the openMetadataServerConfig, where you can define the host and security provider of your OpenMetadata installation.

For a simple, local installation using our docker containers, this looks like:

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: openmetadata
    securityConfig:
      jwtToken: '{bot_jwt_token}'

We support different security providers. You can find their definitions here. You can find the different implementation of the ingestion below.

Openmetadata JWT Auth

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: openmetadata
    securityConfig:
      jwtToken: '{bot_jwt_token}'

Auth0 SSO

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: auth0
    securityConfig:
      clientId: '{your_client_id}'
      secretKey: '{your_client_secret}'
      domain: '{your_domain}'

Azure SSO

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: azure
    securityConfig:
      clientSecret: '{your_client_secret}'
      authority: '{your_authority_url}'
      clientId: '{your_client_id}'
      scopes:
        - your_scopes

Custom OIDC SSO

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: custom-oidc
    securityConfig:
      clientId: '{your_client_id}'
      secretKey: '{your_client_secret}'
      domain: '{your_domain}'

Google SSO

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: google
    securityConfig:
      secretKey: '{path-to-json-creds}'

Okta SSO

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: http://localhost:8585/api
    authProvider: okta
    securityConfig:
      clientId: "{CLIENT_ID - SPA APP}"
      orgURL: "{ISSUER_URL}/v1/token"
      privateKey: "{public/private keypair}"
      email: "{email}"
      scopes:
        - token

Amazon Cognito SSO

The ingestion can be configured by Enabling JWT Tokens

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: auth0
    securityConfig:
      clientId: '{your_client_id}'
      secretKey: '{your_client_secret}'
      domain: '{your_domain}'

OneLogin SSO

Which uses Custom OIDC for the ingestion

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: custom-oidc
    securityConfig:
      clientId: '{your_client_id}'
      secretKey: '{your_client_secret}'
      domain: '{your_domain}'

KeyCloak SSO

Which uses Custom OIDC for the ingestion

workflowConfig:
  openMetadataServerConfig:
    hostPort: 'http://localhost:8585/api'
    authProvider: custom-oidc
    securityConfig:
      clientId: '{your_client_id}'
      secretKey: '{your_client_secret}'
      domain: '{your_domain}'

2. Run with the CLI

First, we will need to save the YAML file. Afterward, and with all requirements installed, we can run:

metadata ingest -c <path-to-yaml>

Note that from connector to connector, this recipe will always be the same. By updating the YAML configuration, you will be able to extract metadata from different sources.
