Configure the filesystem destination to use in a pipeline and load data to local or remote filesystem.

All arguments provided here supersede other configuration sources such as environment variables and dlt config files.

The bucket_url determines the protocol to be used:

  • Local folder: file:///path/to/directory
  • AWS S3 (and S3 compatible storages): `s3://bucket-name
  • Azure Blob Storage: `az://container-name
  • Google Cloud Storage: `gs://bucket-name
  • Memory fs: memory://m

Arguments:

  • bucket_url str, optional - The fsspec compatible bucket url to use for the destination.
  • credentials Union[FileSystemCredentials, Dict[str, Any], Any], optional - Credentials to connect to the filesystem. The type of credentials should correspond to the bucket protocol. For example, for AWS S3, the credentials should be an instance of AwsCredentials. A dictionary with the credentials parameters can also be provided.
  • layout str, optional - A layout of the files holding table data in the destination bucket/filesystem. Uses a set of pre-defined and user-defined (extra) placeholders. Please refer to https://dlthub.com/docs/dlt-ecosystem/destinations/filesystem#files-layout
  • extra_placeholders Optional[TExtraPlaceholders] - A dictionary of extra placeholder names that can be used in the layout parameter. Names are mapped to string values or to callables evaluated at runtime.
  • current_datetime Optional[TCurrentDateTime] - Current datetime used by date/time related placeholders. If not provided, load package creation timestamp will be used.
  • destination_name str, optional - Name of the destination, can be used in config section to differentiate between multiple of the same type
  • environment str, optional - Environment of the destination
  • **kwargs Any - Additional arguments passed to the destination config
