TriplyETL Generator

This is a tool for TriplyETL. It helps users to quickly set up ETL's using a CLI wizard.

Install and usage

Required software on your computer:

Make sure you have Node.jS and Git installed:

• Node.js: https://nodejs.org/en
• Git: https://git-scm.com/downloads

You will also need a Triply ETL license key (not to be confused with a TriplyDB Access token). If you do not have such a key, this generator will not work. You can request a Triply ETL license key by sending an email to [email protected].

NB the Triply ETL license key will be stored in the repository. If you want to publish the code in this repository, please contact Triply before taking any other actions.

Install this generator

npm install -g @triply/etl-generator

For most Linux installs these will require root access, since global Node modules are stored in /usr/lib/node_modules/. If you recieve an error like this: permission denied, mkdir '/usr/lib/node_modules/triply-etl-generator, an alternative solution would be to checkout this repository and run the code:

One time setup (only for Triply people since this requires access to a private Gitlab repository):

cd ~/triply
git clone https://git.triply.cc/triply/etl-generator
cd etl-generator
npm i && npm run build

After this is done, you can do this to use the generator:

cd ~/triply/etl-generator
npx etl-generator

Use the generator

Generate a new TriplyETL project

npx @triply/etl-generator

Run this to see all avaliable options:

npx @triply/etl-generator

Update the generator
