Data Asset Metrics Navigator

The DAMN tool extracts and reports metrics about your data assets.

It allows you to inspect your assets, lineage, and all sorts of metrics around materialization, usage, physical space usage and query performance. The objective of the DAMN tool is to give you a convenient command-line tool to track and report on the data assets you're working on.

Installation

To install the DAMN tool, run the following command:

pip install damn-tool

Connector Configuration

The DAMN tool leverages various connectors to interact with different data systems. Configuring these connectors is done via a YAML file located at ~/.damn/connectors.yml.

YAML Configuration Structure

The configuration file uses the following structure:

connector_name:
  profile_name:
    param1: value1
    param2: value2

• connector_name: The name of the connector (e.g., dagster, dbt, s3, etc.).
• profile_name: The name of the profile for the connector. You can have multiple profiles per connector (e.g., prod, dev, test, etc.).
• param1, param2, etc.: The parameters needed for each connector. The required parameters will depend on the specific connector. For example, a Dagster connector might require endpoint and api_token.

Switching Between Profiles

The active profile for each connector can be changed by specifying the profile when running damn commands. By default, damn will use the prod profile if no profile is specified.

Example usage:

damn ls --profile dev

Connectors

Dagster

This is for the moment the default and only connector supported by the DAMN tool. Here's an example configuration for a dagster connector with prod and dev profiles:

dagster:
  prod:
    endpoint: https://your-dagster-instance.com/prod/graphql
    api_token: your-api-token
  dev:
    endpoint: https://your-dagster-instance.com/dev/graphql
    api_token: your-dev-api-token

Usage

Here are some examples of how to use this CLI tool:

List assets

foo@bar:~$ damn ls

List all assets for a specifc key group

foo@bar:~$ damn ls --prefix gdelt

Show details for a specific asset

foo@bar:~$ damn show gdelt/gdelt_gkg_articles
