IPython magic to use dbt
Project description
Run DBT commands inside a IPython session.
So far only the following IPython magics are implemented:
Quickstart Guide:
The first thing you’ll probably want to do is to run a DBT RPC server in the background. That will let you run queries, compile SQL code among other things:
%dbt rpc <args> (the args will be passed directly to dbt as command line arguments)
The two most important parameters would be:
--port [port_number] Passing this parameter will run the DBT RPC on that port. Default is 8580
--existing This will skip creating a new DBT RPC and instead it will connect to an existing one on the specified port
Compiling queries:
The sql query in the cell will be compiled with the DBT RPC server and IPython will output the text:
%%compile_sql
Running queries:
The sql query in the cell will be run on the DBT RPC server and IPython will output the agate table. Also, it will run its .print_table() method:
%%run_sql
