Project description

CI Badge

dbt enables data analysts and engineers to transform their data using the same practices that software engineers use to build applications.

dbt is the T in ELT. Organize, cleanse, denormalize, filter, rename, and pre-aggregate the raw data in your warehouse so that it's ready for analysis.

dbt-postgres

The dbt-postgres package contains all of the code enabling dbt to work with a Postgres database. For more information on using dbt with Postgres, consult the docs.

Getting started

psycopg2-binary vs. psycopg2

By default, dbt-postgres installs psycopg2-binary. This is great for development, and even testing, as it does not require any OS dependencies; it's a pre-built wheel. However, building psycopg2 from source will grant performance improvements that are desired in a production environment. In order to install psycopg2, use the following steps:

if [[ $(pip show psycopg2-binary) ]]; then
    PSYCOPG2_VERSION=$(pip show psycopg2-binary | grep Version | cut -d " " -f 2)
    pip uninstall -y psycopg2-binary
    pip install psycopg2==$PSYCOPG2_VERSION
fi

This ensures the version of psycopg2 will match that of psycopg2-binary.
