Stdin Input

Reads line-delimited data from standard input.

Supported formats

• Depends on the optional format setting (e.g. JSON lines). Each line is typically one record.

How it works

1. Reads from stdin until EOF (batch mode, default) or continuously (stream mode).
2. Batch mode: suitable for pipes and one-shot jobs; ingestion completes when the stream closes.
3. Stream mode: keeps reading as new lines arrive for long-running processes.
4. Namespace convention: stdin.

Configuration

DATA_SOURCE_PLUGIN_NAME=Stdin

Or via YAML pipeline config:

data_sources:
  source:
    Stdin:
      mode: batch
      format: jsonl

Typical usage

Pipe data into Skipprd:

cat data.json | skipprd sync --pipeline my_pipeline

Configuration variables

Variable	Default	Description
mode	batch	batch (read until EOF) or stream (continuous)
format		Optional format hint for the parser

Namespace convention

stdin

Authentication

No connector-specific authentication is required.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Fix
no records are ingested	Check that the upstream process is piping data into stdin and that --mode matches the input format.
parse errors	Verify the piped payload is valid for the selected mode and that record boundaries are what you expect.
