Connections

Connections describe the external systems used by Belt.

Currently, three connection types are available:

PostgreSQL ClickHouse Python scripts

When creating a connection, the user specifies its name, selects its type, and defines the connection parameters in JSON format. An example for PostgreSQL is shown below. The secret value is visible only during the initial input. When a saved connection is opened again, the secret is masked with asterisks. Connection types will be expanded during the life of the project.

{
  "host": "localhost",
  "port": "5432",
  "user": "postgres",
  "dbname": "my_database",
  "secret": {
    "password": "your_password"
  }
}

If you include slashes in the connection name, the connection will be saved to the folder:

my_conn/conn_1_postgres
