Summary

PyAirbyte is a Python library that provides a convenient way to download and install Airbyte sources, run them locally, and store data in a cache dataset. The library offers a Pythonic interface, making it easier to work with Airbyte sources without having to deal with the complexities of the original Airbyte source code. While PyAirbyte is not a replacement for Airbyte, it can be used to develop or test Airbyte sources, run demo pipelines, and explore data in more casual settings. The library uses pandas.to_sql and sql alchemy, and its loaders are different from those in Airbyte. PyAirbyte is intended to enable new usage patterns and provide a neat addition to the toolkit for users who enjoy tinkering with data.
