confluence-data-source

VDK data source plugin for Confluence

This plugin enables Versatile Data Kit (VDK) users to easily integrate and ingest data from Atlassian Confluence into their data processing jobs. It provides a streamlined way to access Confluence page content, utilizing the Confluence API to fetch pages from specified spaces or across the entire Confluence site. The plugin supports multiple authentication methods and is designed to work seamlessly with VDK, allowing for the configuration-driven ingestion of Confluence data.

Usage

To use the vdk-confluence-data-source plugin, install it using pip:

pip install vdk-confluence-data-source

Configuration

Configuration options for the confluence-data-source plugin can be set using VDK's configuration commands. These options allow you to specify the details required to connect to and interact with your Confluence instance. The available configurations are detailed below:

Example usage in configuration:

[confluence-data-source-config]
confluence_url = https://your-confluence-instance.atlassian.net/wiki
space_key = DEMO
username = user@example.com
api_token = your_api_token
# personal_access_token = your_personal_access_token
# oauth2 = {"access_token": "token", "access_token_secret": "secret", "consumer_key": "key", "key_cert": "cert"}
cloud = True
# confluence_kwargs = {"timeout": 60}

These configurations allow you to tailor the Confluence data source to your specific Confluence instance and authentication method, ensuring secure and efficient access to your Confluence content.

Example

To use the confluence-data-source in a VDK job:

from vdk.plugin.confluence_data_source import ConfluenceDataSource

# Configuration example
config = {
    "confluence_url": "https://your-confluence-instance.atlassian.net/wiki",
    "api_token": "your_api_token",
    "space_key": "DEMO",
}

# Initialize the data source
confluence_data_source = ConfluenceDataSource()
confluence_data_source.configure(config)

# Use the data source in your VDK job
confluence_data_source.connect()
for stream in confluence_data_source.streams():
    for page_content in stream.read():
        print(page_content.data, page_content.metadata)
confluence_data_source.disconnect()

Build and testing

To build and test the confluence-data-source plugin, follow these steps:

pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e .
pytest

For plugins that are part of the Versatile Data Kit Plugin repo, you can also use the build-plugin.sh script located in the VDK repo for building and testing:

../build-plugin.sh

Note about the CICD:

For CI/CD, .plugin-ci.yaml is required for plugins that are part of the Versatile Data Kit Plugin repository. The CI/CD process is divided into two stages: build and release. Each stage consists of jobs that are configured to run on different Python versions (3.7, 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10), ensuring compatibility. The CI/CD runs according to rules designed to trigger the plugin's CI pipeline when changes are made within its directory.
