Airbyte

We finished the implementation of using DynamoDB as the destination. We are curious how to build the docker on the local machine, which has the GUI for the new added DynamoDB that can use to test

<@U02B53JS1TP> assuming you followed the instructions in the README.md to build the docker image, you can add it to the GUI by following these instructions: <https://docs.airbyte.io/integrations/custom-connectors#adding-your-connectors-in-the-ui>

(instead of “admin” section you would go to settings --&gt; destinations, the rest should be the same)

Thank you Shrif, let me try it really quick. I assume I should use `VERSION=dev docker-compose up` instead just  `docker-compose up` .

May I ask how the `destinationDefinitionId` in destination_definitions.yaml generated?

`VERSION=dev` controls the platform version not connector versions. You’d need to manually add it in the UI as described in the link

`destinationDefinitionId` is generated by hand :slightly_smiling_face: it’s not a special value, just needs to be unique

<@U02B53JS1TP> did you build the image with tag 0.1.0?

if you do `docker images | grep dynamo` what do you see?

```airbyte/destination-dynamodb    dev            b3f9a341dd39   6 minutes ago   552MB```

you should use the dev tag then not 0.1.0

The dockerfile is
```FROM airbyte/integration-base-java:dev

WORKDIR /airbyte
ENV APPLICATION destination-dynamodb

COPY build/distributions/${APPLICATION}*.tar ${APPLICATION}.tar

RUN tar xf ${APPLICATION}.tar --strip-components=1

LABEL io.airbyte.version=0.1.0
LABEL io.airbyte.name=airbyte/destination-dynamodb```
