Overview #

This CloudQuery source plugin fetches data from the XKCD API, allowing you to load the XKCD comic data into any CloudQuery-supported destination (e.g. PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, Snowflake, etc.). See CloudQuery destinations for a complete list of supported destinations.

It was originally developed as part of a live-coding tutorial on how to write your own CloudQuery source plugin. It only took 30 minutes! You can watch the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ka_Ob8E6P8
