MSSQL

The MSSQL connector lets Tabsdata run queries against MSSQL and write tables into MSSQL.

The MSSQLSrc connector can be used by a publisher function to read data from MSSQL into a Tabsdata table.

The MSSQLDest connector can be used by a subscriber function to write data from a Tabsdata table into MSSQL.

Publishers and Subscribers

The MSSQLSrc connector can be used by a publisher function to read data from MSSQL into a Tabsdata table. See the full publisher walkthrough

Connection

MSSQL publishers use MSSQLSrcConn to define the database connection and credentials used by the publisher.

conn-mssql.yaml

kind: connectionDef
apiVersion: '1.0'
type: tabsdatak.conn.mssql:MSSQLSrcConn
spec:
  uri: 'mssql+pyodbc://db.internal:1433/world'
  credentials:
  kind: userPasswordCredentials
  apiVersion: '1.0'
  type: tabsdatak.conn.common.types:UserPassword
  spec:
    user: 'secret:tabsdata_reader'
    password: 'secret:example-password'

Connection Config Parameters

uri

The SQLAlchemy-style connection URI: mssql+pyodbc://host:port/database. Written as a plain value here, but accepts secret: too.

credentials

The database user and password, spliced into the URI at connect time. UserPassword requires a user and password.

entity_whitelist

Limits which source tables are discovered (registered in the collection's table catalog) when the source collection is created: a YAML list of regular expressions, not a comma-separated string. A table is kept if it matches any pattern. Omit it entirely to discover every table in the database.

conn_cfg

Driver-side options forwarded to the connection as SQLAlchemy connect_args.

Publisher

Configure MSSQLSrc as the source of a publisher function to select the queries that Tabsdata runs against MSSQL.

publish_orders.py

from tabsdatak.api import publisher
from tabsdatak.conn.mssql import MSSQLSrc

@publisher(
  source=MSSQLSrc(
        queries=[
            "SELECT * FROM orders",
      ],
    ),
  output_tables=["orders"],
)
def publish_orders(orders):
  return orders

• optional
• optional

Function Config Parameters

queries

Defines the SQL queries the publisher runs against MSSQL.

Each element in queries represents one source slot and maps positionally to an argument in the publisher function.

For example:

MSSQLSrc(
    queries=[
        "SELECT * FROM country",
        "SELECT * FROM city",
    ],
)

initial_values

Values substituted into {placeholder}-style tokens inside queries, so one publisher can read the same tables out of a different schema or catalog without the SQL changing.

src_cfg

Sets additional source configuration.
