Elastic connector framework

edit

The Elastic Python connector framework enables developers to build Elastic-supported connector clients which sync third-party data sources to Elasticsearch. The framework implements common functionalities out of the box, so developers can focus on the logic specific to integrating their chosen data source.

The framework ensures compatibility, makes it easier for our team to review PRs, and help out in the development process. When you build using our framework, we provide a pathway for the connector to be officially supported by Elastic.

Use cases

edit

The framework serves two distinct, but related use cases:

  • Customizing an existing Elastic connector client
  • Building a new connector client

This repo contains all the source code for existing Elastic connectors.
