GitHub is a renowned and respected development platform that provides code hosting services to developers for building software for both open source and private projects. It is a heavily trafficked platform where users can store and share code repositories and obtain support, advice, and help from known and unknown contributors. Three features in particular—pull request, fork, and merge—have made GitHub a powerful ally for developers and earned it a place as a (developers’) household name.
Weaviate is an open-source, cloud-native, real-time vector search engine that allows developers to build intelligent applications with natural language processing (NLP) capabilities. It uses machine learning algorithms to understand the meaning of unstructured data and provides a semantic search engine that can retrieve relevant information from large datasets. Weaviate can be used to build chatbots, recommendation systems, and other intelligent applications that require NLP capabilities. It is designed to be scalable, flexible, and easy to use, with a RESTful API that allows developers to integrate it into their applications quickly. Weaviate is built on top of Kubernetes and can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud.
1. Open the Airbyte platform and navigate to the "Sources" tab on the left-hand side of the screen.
2. Click on the "GitHub" source connector and select "Create a new connection."
3. Enter a name for the connection and click "Next."
4. Enter your GitHub credentials, including your username and personal access token. If you do not have a personal access token, you can create one by following the instructions provided in the Airbyte documentation.
5. Select the repositories you want to connect to Airbyte and click "Test Connection" to ensure that the connection is successful.
6. Once the connection is successful, click "Create Connection" to save the connection.
7. You can now use the GitHub source connector to extract data from your selected repositories and integrate it with other data sources in Airbyte.
1. First, navigate to the Weaviate destination connector on Airbyte's website.
2. Click on the "Get Started" button to begin the setup process.
3. Enter the required credentials for your Weaviate instance, including the URL, API key, and schema name.
4. Test the connection to ensure that the credentials are correct and the connection is successful.
5. Choose the tables or collections that you want to sync from your source connector to Weaviate.
6. Map the fields from your source connector to the corresponding fields in Weaviate.
7. Set up any necessary transformations or filters to ensure that the data is formatted correctly for Weaviate.
8. Schedule the sync to run at regular intervals or manually trigger it as needed.
9. Monitor the sync to ensure that the data is being transferred correctly and troubleshoot any issues that arise.
10. Once the sync is complete, verify that the data has been successfully transferred to Weaviate.
With Airbyte, creating data pipelines take minutes, and the data integration possibilities are endless. Airbyte supports the largest catalog of API tools, databases, and files, among other sources. Airbyte's connectors are open-source, so you can add any custom objects to the connector, or even build a new connector from scratch without any local dev environment or any data engineer within 10 minutes with the no-code connector builder.
We look forward to seeing you make use of it! We invite you to join the conversation on our community Slack Channel, or sign up for our newsletter. You should also check out other Airbyte tutorials, and Airbyte’s content hub!
