Hi,
Did someone succed to use tap-airbyte-wrapper with docker-compose ?
I tried to with custom build with meltano and docker.io
I was able to run docker ps in the container, but when i tried with tap-sonar-cloud i've got : No such file or directory: '/tmp/config.json'

@lideke you shouldn't need to directly use tap-airbyte-wrapper. Just reference the individual connector you're trying to use in your Meltano configuration. If you have more trouble can you open an issue in the main meltano project and I can bring more folks there (or ping us on Slack!)

I had this issue using meltano in docker and trying to use docker-in-docker for the airbyte wrapper - the trick is to mount the /tmp directory on your host to the /tmp directory on the meltano image. Meltano then spins up a docker container, which runs the container on the host, so the mappings need to be passed through so that /tmp is in the same location for all three - the host, the meltano container, and the airbyte container.

The wrapper puts the config.json generated from the meltano.yml into a /tmp directory created dynamically, so this ensures the airbyte container knows where to find /tmp/config.json
