dataplat 0.2.0

One command to manage any shape of data platform: databases, ingestion, BI, cloud, and CI.

dataplat

One command to manage any shape of data platform.

dataplat ships a single CLI, dp, with an area for each type of component in a data platform: warehouses/databases, ingestion, BI, cloud, and CI. Point it at your stack through environment variables — nothing about your infrastructure is hardcoded.

Installation

Requires Python 3.12 or newer.

uv tool install "dataplat[all]"     # recommended: everything
# or
pipx install "dataplat[all]"
# or
pip install "dataplat[all]"

Each area's dependencies are an optional extra, so you can also install only what your platform uses:

Extra	Enables	Pulls in
db	dp db	psycopg
ingest	dp ingest	httpx, textual, croniter
bi	dp bi	httpx
cloud	dp cloud	boto3, plotext
all	everything	all of the above

A bare pip install dataplat gives you the core (status, open, config) with every other area stubbed. You don't have to plan this in advance: dp knows which areas your configuration enables and installs what's missing on demand — see below.

Auto-installing dependencies

Two ways, both of which detect whether dp runs from a uv tool, pipx, or plain-venv install and use the matching installer:

dp config sync            # detect enabled areas, install missing deps (confirms)
dp config sync --check    # report only; exit 1 if something is missing (CI-friendly)

Or just use a command: if your config enables an area whose extra is missing, dp db query ... shows exactly what it will run, asks, installs, and re-runs your original command. Non-interactive sessions never install silently — they print the command and exit instead. dp config doctor also reports per-area dependency status.

Either path only ever adds to your install: the command is pinned to the dataplat version you already run, so installing an extra never upgrades the tool underneath you, and it carries your existing extras along, so adding db cannot drop an ingest you already had.

Quick start

1. Declare your database targets — any names you like:

   # ~/.envrc (or any env mechanism you prefer)
   export DP_TARGETS="warehouse,lake"
   export DP_DEFAULT_TARGET="warehouse"
   
   export WAREHOUSE_ENGINE=postgresql
   export WAREHOUSE_HOST=db.example.com
   export WAREHOUSE_DATABASE=analytics
   export WAREHOUSE_USER=me
   export WAREHOUSE_PASSWORD=…
   
   export LAKE_ENGINE=redshift
   export LAKE_HOST=lake.abc123.eu-central-1.redshift-serverless.amazonaws.com
   export LAKE_DATABASE=dev
   export LAKE_USER=me
   export LAKE_PASSWORD=…
   export LAKE_REASSIGN_OWNER=admin      # role drop reassigns owned objects here
   

2. Optionally link that file globally and check your setup:

   dp config init --envrc ~/.envrc   # set the global link
   dp config show                    # which .envrc is active, what's set
   dp config doctor --connect        # validate config; probe live systems
   

3. Go:

   dp status
   dp db query 'SELECT 1'
   dp db query -t lake 'SELECT 1'
   

Environment loading

dp loads variables from .envrc on startup without overriding values already set in your shell. Lookup order:

1. DP_ENVRC_PATH
2. ~/.config/dataplat/.envrc (the global link — set it with dp config init)
3. .envrc in the current directory
4. the .envrc beside a development checkout of dataplat itself

Candidate 3 makes every command sensitive to where you run it: standing in a cloned repo points dp at whatever host and credentials that repo's .envrc exports. dp config show and dp config doctor always name the active file and which candidate produced it, and warn when it came from the current directory. Set DP_ENVRC_ALLOW_CWD=0 to drop that candidate entirely and rely only on the global link you chose.

Configuration reference

Variable	Purpose
DP_ENVRC_PATH	Explicit .envrc to load, ahead of every other candidate.
DP_ENVRC_ALLOW_CWD	Set to 0 to stop picking up .envrc from the current directory.
DP_TARGETS	Comma-separated DB target names (e.g. warehouse,lake).
DP_DEFAULT_TARGET	Target used when --target is omitted (default: first of DP_TARGETS).
<NAME>_ENGINE	postgresql (default) or redshift, per target.
<NAME>_HOST/_PORT/_USER/_PASSWORD/_DATABASE/_SSLMODE	Connection settings, per target.
<NAME>_REASSIGN_OWNER	Default owner for dp db role drop ownership transfer.
AIRBYTE_BASE_URL + AIRBYTE_CLIENT_ID/AIRBYTE_CLIENT_SECRET (cloud) or AIRBYTE_EMAIL/AIRBYTE_PASSWORD (OSS)	Airbyte API access.
SUPERSET_BASE_URL, SUPERSET_ADMIN_USERNAME, SUPERSET_ADMIN_PASSWORD	Superset API access.
DP_AWS_PROFILE	Default AWS profile for dp cloud aws commands.
DP_AWS_PROFILE_ALIASES	Short aliases, e.g. prod=AdminAccess-Prod,qa=AdminAccess-QA.
DP_AWS_REGION	Default AWS region (falls back to AWS_REGION, then the profile).
DP_RDS_INSTANCE	Default RDS instance for dp cloud aws rds / dp status.
DP_DBT_PROJECT	dbt project name — required for dp db dbt-orphans.
DP_DBT_INVOCATION_COMMAND	Optional filter on dbt_artifacts invocations.
DP_DBT_ORPHANS_EXCLUDE_SCHEMAS	Comma-separated schemas to skip (default raw,_raw,dbt_artifacts).
GHA_APP_ID, GHA_APP_PRIVATE_KEY	GitHub App creds for dp ci github runner.
DP_CI_RUNNER_DNS	Comma-separated DNS servers for the runner container.

Conventions

• -t/--target — named DB target from DP_TARGETS. Multi-target commands accept all. Sets the engine and env prefix in one flag; --engine / --env-prefix remain as overrides.
• --json — every read command can emit machine-readable output.
• --yes/-y — every destructive or bulk-mutating command confirms first; pass --yes in scripts. Bulk mutators also support --dry-run.
• --limit/-n — row caps share one spelling everywhere.
• Secrets stay off argv — prefer --value-stdin / hidden prompts; values are never echoed back.

Examples

Daily overview

dp status                  # DBs, Airbyte jobs (24h), runners, RDS at a glance
dp open superset           # jump to a web UI

DB query

dp db query 'SELECT 1'                         # default target
dp db query -t lake 'SELECT 1'                 # named target
dp db query --format csv -n 0 'SELECT ...' > out.csv
echo 'SELECT 1' | dp db query
dp db query --write 'UPDATE t SET x = 1'       # writes need --write or a confirm

Long queries and kill

dp db long-queries                       # all targets: running + recent failures
dp db long-queries -t warehouse --history    # pg_stat_statements aggregate
dp db kill 12345 -t warehouse            # terminate a backend (confirms first)

DB roles

dp db role list --users-only
dp db role show alice -t lake --json
dp db role create svc_reporting --table-select reporting --databases analytics
dp db role create readers --no-login --table-select reporting   # passwordless group role
dp db role create readers --no-login --grant-to alice,bob
dp db role drop old_user --all-databases --dry-run

list, create, and drop work against both Postgres and Redshift targets. create makes login roles with generated passwords by default; --no-login creates a passwordless group-style role instead. drop transfers owned objects to the target's <NAME>_REASSIGN_OWNER before DROP USER.

Cleanup

dp db top-tables --schema-prefix dev_ -n 30
dp db top-tables --drop-sql > review.sql       # emit a script
dp db dbt-orphans                              # dry-run scan (default)
dp db dbt-orphans --no-dry-run                 # apply renames (confirms)
dp db dbt-orphans purge --older-than 7 --no-dry-run
dp db dbt-orphans revert                       # undo from the audit log

AWS secrets

dp cloud aws secrets list --prefix /kubernetes
dp cloud aws secrets get /my/secret --key password
dp cloud aws secrets compare /my/secret -p prod -p qa
echo -n "hunter2" | dp cloud aws secrets set my/secret --value-stdin -p qa
dp cloud aws secrets versions my/secret
dp cloud aws secrets rollback my/secret        # AWSCURRENT -> AWSPREVIOUS

All writes show their targets and confirm (or --yes).

AWS monitoring

dp cloud aws rds metrics --json
dp cloud aws rds plot -m cpu -m connections --hours 12
dp cloud aws redshift metrics -w my-workgroup

Airbyte

dp ingest airbyte connections list -w <workspace-id> --json
dp ingest airbyte connections sync -c <connection-id> --wait
dp ingest airbyte connections reset -c <connection-id>

# Move every date-based cursor to a date, across all connections from one source
dp ingest airbyte connections set-cursor --source-id <id> --to 2024-01-01 --dry-run
dp ingest airbyte connections set-cursor -c <connection-id> --to 2024-01-01 --yes

# xmin (Postgres transaction-id) cursors: set them directly
dp ingest airbyte connections set-cursor -c <connection-id> --xmin 0 --yes

Development

git clone https://github.com/hanslemm/dataplat
cd dataplat
uv sync --group dev --all-extras
uv run pytest
uv run ruff check .
uv run ruff format --check .
uv run mypy dataplat

CI runs those four across Python 3.12 and 3.13 — the floor the wheel advertises as well as the pinned dev version.

Releasing

Bump [project].version, then tag X.Y.Z (bare semver, no v prefix) on main. The release workflow refuses to publish unless the tag matches that version, and runs the full check matrix first; only then does GitHub Actions build and publish to PyPI via Trusted Publishing. Commits follow Conventional Commits.
