How to run

[aartnico]

Hi,

Your tool looks really great, but I'm having a hard time get it up and running. I don't have a lot off experience with Python but do have programming experience. I did the install and all went fine. From that point on I couldn't figure out what the next command should be.. When I read the "Basic Usage" steps it's not clear for me which python script to run.. Sorry if my question sounds silly but after two hours I felt I just should ask.

Thanks,

Aart

Hi @aartnico ... first, you need to identify the URLs of your databases. You'll need a source database URL, and a target database URL. Information on Database URLs can be found (in condensed form) here on the SQLAlchemy docs page, or here at the page for RFC 1738.

You just need to pass your source URL to the ETLAlchemySource constructor, and your target URL to the ETLAlchemyTarget constructor. The Basic Usage example should show you the 4 lines of code required.

If you want, copy and paste what you have so far into this issue, and I'll see if I can help you!
