TDS Version (tds_version)
-
Environment variable:
TAP_MSSQL_TDS_VERSION
The TDS version of the connection. Defaults to 7.3, connecting to older databases (ex MS SQL 2005) requires 7.0 or earlier. Please see the pymssql or FreeTSD documentation for more details. Also note, while this is a confusing topic version 7.3 is more current than 8.0.
Use Date Datatype (use_date_datatype)
-
Environment variable:
TAP_MSSQL_USE_DATE_DATATYPE -
Default Value:
false
To emit a date datatype as a date without a time component or time without an UTC offset. If this boolean config item is not set, the default behaviour is false i.e. emit date datatypes as a datetime. It is recommended to set this on if you have time datatypes and are having issues uploading into into a target database.
Characterset (characterset)
-
Environment variable:
TAP_MSSQL_CHARACTERSET
The characterset for the database / source system. The default is utf8, however older databases might use a charactersets like cp1252 for the encoding. If you have errors with a UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte .... then a solution is to examine the characterset of the source database / system and make an appropriate substitution for utf8 like cp1252.
