dagster-community-components 0.10.33

Community-maintained Dagster components — ingestion, transforms, IO managers, sensors, sinks, resources, and more.

Dagster Component Templates

A community library of 688 reusable Dagster component templates covering data ingestion, transformations, ML / analytics, AI / LLM enrichment, orchestration, infrastructure provisioning, reverse ETL, observability, sensors, asset checks, and enterprise tool integrations — all configurable via YAML with no Python required.

Field naming conventions across the registry are documented in FIELD_CONVENTIONS.md.

What are Dagster Components?

Components are reusable, YAML-configurable building blocks that package common data engineering patterns. Drop one into your project's defs/ folder and configure it in YAML — no boilerplate Python needed.

attributes:
  asset_name: raw_events
  queue_url_env_var: SQS_QUEUE_URL

Component Structure

Every component follows the same layout:

component_name/
├── component.py       # Dagster component class
├── example.yaml       # Working YAML configuration example
├── README.md          # Documentation and field reference
├── requirements.txt   # pip dependencies
└── schema.json        # Component registry metadata

---

StateBackedComponent

Several components that discover resources from external APIs use Dagster's StateBackedComponent pattern. The API call happens once at prepare time and is cached to disk — code-server reloads are instant with zero network calls.

Components using this pattern: coalesce_run_asset, azure_data_factory, aws_glue, databricks_workspace, openapi_asset, warehouse_schema_assets, step_functions_asset, dataiku_asset, polytomic_asset, autosys_asset, terraform_cloud_asset

To refresh the cached state after adding pipelines/jobs in the external system:

dg utils refresh-defs-state
# or simply restart: dagster dev

---

Asset Dependencies & Lineage

Every asset component supports a deps field for declaring upstream dependencies in the asset graph:

type: dagster_component_templates.LiteLLMInferenceAssetComponent
attributes:
  asset_name: enriched_tickets
  upstream_asset_key: raw_tickets   # loads data + draws lineage edge
  deps:                              # additional lineage-only edges
    - support_schema/tickets_raw
    - raw/other_table
  model: claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022
  prompt_template: "Classify: {body}"
  database_url_env_var: DATABASE_URL
  table_name: enriched_tickets

upstream_asset_key — for components that load upstream data (LiteLLM, Ollama, LangChain, SQL): draws a lineage edge and loads the asset value at runtime.

deps — for all components: draws additional lineage-only edges without loading data. Use this to express that an asset depends on another without consuming it directly.

Dependencies can also be wired externally via map_resolved_asset_specs() in definitions.py — the same approach used by Dagster Designer.

---

Partitioning

All ingestion assets support time-based partitioning out of the box:

attributes:
  partition_type: daily          # none | daily | weekly | monthly
  partition_start_date: "2024-01-01"
  table_name: events_{partition_key}   # {partition_key} is substituted at runtime

---

Sensor → Asset Pairing

Most sensors are designed to trigger a companion ingestion asset. The sensor detects new data and fires a RunRequest with source info in run_config; the asset reads and ingests it.

Sensor	Companion Asset
s3_monitor	s3_to_database_asset
kafka_monitor	kafka_to_database_asset
sqs_monitor	sqs_to_database_asset
kinesis_monitor	kinesis_to_database_asset
eventhubs_monitor	eventhubs_to_database_asset
rabbitmq_monitor	rabbitmq_to_database_asset
sftp_monitor	sftp_to_database_asset
…	… (all 15 pairs complete)

dbt Docs Enrichment

The dbt_docs_enriched_project component is a drop-in replacement for DbtProjectComponent that adds rich metadata from the dbt manifest to every asset in the Dagster UI:

type: dagster_component_templates.DbtDocsEnrichedProjectComponent
attributes:
  project: "{{ project_root }}/dbt_project"
  dbt_docs_url: "https://dbt-docs.internal.mycompany.com"
  include_exposures: true
  include_metrics: true
  include_semantic_models: true
  include_contracts: true
  include_source_freshness: true

Each dbt model asset then shows: a clickable link to the dbt docs page, downstream BI exposures, metrics, semantic models, contract status, and source freshness SLAs — all visible in the Dagster Asset Catalog. All include_* flags default to false — opt in to only what you need.

Quick Start

1. Install dagster

pip install dagster

2. Copy a component into your project

cp -r assets/s3_to_database_asset/ my_project/defs/components/

3. Configure in YAML

# defs/components/my_s3_ingest.yaml
type: dagster_component_templates.S3ToDatabaseAssetComponent
attributes:
  asset_name: raw_orders
  bucket_env_var: DATA_BUCKET
  database_url_env_var: DATABASE_URL
  table_name: raw_orders

4. Load in definitions.py

import dagster as dg
from pathlib import Path

defs = dg.load_from_defs_folder(project_root=Path(__file__).parent)
