@kapa.ai how to check if my destination custom pythno cdk is owrking

To check if your custom Python CDK destination is working, you can follow these steps: 1. Implement the

check

function in your connector. This function verifies that the input configuration supplied by the user can be used to connect to the underlying data source. Here is an example of how to implement the

check

function:

python def check_connection(self, logger, config) -> Tuple[bool, any]:       first_stream = next(iter(self.streams(config)))        stream_slice = next(iter(first_stream.stream_slices(sync_mode=SyncMode.full_refresh)))        try:           read_stream = first_stream.read_records(sync_mode=SyncMode.full_refresh, stream_slice=stream_slice)           first_record = None           while not first_record:               first_record = next(read_stream)               if isinstance(first_record, AirbyteMessage):                   if first_record.type == "RECORD":                       first_record = first_record.record                       return True, None                   else:                       first_record = None           return True, None       except Exception as e:           return False, f"Unable to connect to the API with the provided credentials - {str(e)}"

check

operation using the following command:

bash poetry run source-survey-monkey-demo check --config secrets/config.json

3. If the command succeeds, it means your connector is able to connect to the data source. If it fails, you should see an error message indicating what went wrong. 4. You can also test your connector locally with Python and a test file. This involves defining needed mock data stored in a JSON file and running a series of commands to test the

spec

,

check

,

discover

, and

write

functions. Here is an example of how to do this:

bash source .venv/bin/activate python -m pip install --upgrade pip pip install -r requirements.txt python main.py spec python main.py check --config integration_tests/config.json python main.py discover --config integration_tests/config.json cat integration_tests/messages.jsonl| python main.py write --config integration_tests/config.json --catalog integration_tests/configured_catalog.json

tests. You can find a guide on how to run them [here](https://docs.airbyte.com/connector-development/testing-connectors/). (Source: [Airbyte Documentation](https://docs.airbyte.com/contributing-to-airbyte/submit-new-connector#open-a-pull-request))
