Meltastic by Meltano: April 2023 Edition

What happened in the Meltano universe in the last four weeks? We shipped six releases, people built targets for Meltano “in one hour,” and dozens of new taps & targets made their way to the hub.

Let’s get to the details.

What got shipped?

Busy as bees, we shipped six releases this time, four for the SDK with heavy community support and two for Meltano. 

List of all releases

  • Meltano v2.19.0 now allows to install plugins using “meltano install –schedule=my-schedule” and Mac-performant docker images. 
  • Meltano v2.18.0 now allows you do disable calls to the hub (for discovery) via a feature flag. It also adds a “meltano docs” command, opening up the documentation in your browser.
  • SDK v.0.26.0 added support for parameters in string form inside URLs. That’s useful, for instance, for LinkedIn Ads and other API endpoints requiring parameters as strings in the URL.
  • SDK v0.23.0, v0.24.0 and v0.25.0 added a lot of JSON payload-related helpers to the SDK, making it easier to build sophisticated API taps.
  • Shipped with many community contributions from @space192 @acarter24 @longtomjr @msardana94 @flexponsive @DanielPDWalker @BuzzCutNorman @mkranna @DanilJr!
