Table comments breaking target

vitoravancini commented 4 years ago

Hello everyone, I've been using target-postgres for almost an year and I'm now beggining to use target-redshift. Thank you for all the awesome work.

I'm having an issue when the target code tries to read the table comment metadata. I'm not sure why this is happening, and I was able to make it work changing two lines of code, maybe showing which lines I've changed and my json schema you could point me to something I'm getting wrong.

I've changed from file postgres.py around line 710

 comment = cur.fetchone()[0]

if comment:
    try:
        comment_meta = json.loads(comment)
    except:
        self.LOGGER.exception('Could not load table comment metadata')
        raise
else:
    comment_meta = None

to

comment = cur.fetchone()

if comment and len(comment) > 0:
    comment = comment[0]
    try:
        comment_meta = json.loads(comment)
    except:
        self.LOGGER.exception('Could not load table comment metadata')
        raise
else:
    comment_meta = None

and my json schema is

{ "streams": [{ "stream_alias": "batidas", "stream": "batidas", "tap_stream_id": "batidas", "schema": { "selected": true, "type": ["null", "object"], "properties": { "NSR": { "type": ["null", "string"] }, "NREP": { "type": ["null", "string"] }, "PIS": { "type": ["null", "string"] }, "Data": { "type": ["null", "string"] }, "Hora": { "type": ["null", "string"] }, "Latitude": { "type": ["null", "string"] }, "Longitude": { "type": ["null", "string"] } } }, "metadata": [{ "metadata": { "selected": true, "table-key-properties": ["NSR", "NREP", "PIS"] }, "breadcrumb": [] }] }] }

the error message is the following:

ERROR Exception writing records

Thank you in advance!

just now realized that this file is from target-postgres, not target-redshift.

@vitoravancini yup, that's expected. They are very related, built on the same codebase.

Is this a long lived table? ie, has it been syncing data for some time and this just now popped up? What kind of replication are you using? We haven't been seeing any issues with this code on our end, but just to be sure we could easily rerun the tests herein.

@vitoravancini @AlexanderMann Were you able to resolve this issue? My team is currently dealing with a similar problem

datamill-co / target-redshift
