how to set local_excutable What directory is the executable file in?
k
To set the
local_executable
parameter in the
get_source
function, you need to specify the path to the executable file. Based on the information provided in the knowledge sources, particularly for local file sources on Windows, you should ensure that the path is correctly mapped and accessible within the Docker container. Here are the steps to set the `local_executable`: 1. Modify the
.env
file
: Ensure that the paths for
LOCAL_ROOT
,
LOCAL_DOCKER_MOUNT
, and
HACK_LOCAL_ROOT_PARENT
are set correctly in your
.env
file. These should be absolute paths on your machine, with colons replaced by double forward slashes (
//
). Example:
Copy code
LOCAL_ROOT=C//airbytedata/data     LOCAL_DOCKER_MOUNT=C//airbytedata/data     HACK_LOCAL_ROOT_PARENT=C//airbytedata
2. Set the
local_executable
parameter
: Provide the path to the executable file. This path should be within the directory specified by
LOCAL_ROOT
and
LOCAL_DOCKER_MOUNT
. Example:
Copy code
python     from pathlib import Path      local_executable_path = Path("C//airbytedata/data/your_executable_file")
3. Ensure the path is accessible: The path you provide should be accessible within the Docker container. If you encounter issues, you may need to adjust the Docker volume mappings in your
docker-compose
file. For more detailed information, you can refer to the [Airbyte documentation on local filesystem setup](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/sources/file#local-filesystem-airbyte-open-source-only). If you need to debug or verify the path, you can follow the steps in this [guide](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/locating-files-local-destination#locating-where-your-temp-folder-is). If you have any further questions or run into issues, feel free to ask for more assistance!
