# Getting the current status of the dbt rpc server.
response = rpc.status()
assert isinstance(response, requests.Response)
assert response.ok

# Running dbt models via CLI command.
response = rpc.cli(cli_args="dbt run --models @model1 +model2+")
assert response.ok

# Running dbt models via `run` method.
response = rpc.run(models=["@model1", "+model2+"])
assert response.ok

# Polling a dbt rpc operation.
response = rpc.poll(request_token=response.get("id"))
assert response.ok
print(response.get("result").get("status"))

# Compiling/Running a SQL query.
sql = """
select 1
from {{ ref("my_dbt_model") }}

assert response.ok

Contributing

1. The first step to contributing is getting a copy of the source code. First, fork dbt-rpc-client on GitHub. Then, cd into the directory where you want your copy of the source code to live and clone the source code:

$ cd repos
$ git clone [e-mail]:YourGitHubName/dbt-rpc-client.git

2. Now that you have a copy of the source code on your machine, create and activate a virtual envionment for dbt-rpc-client:

$ python3 -mvenv ~/.venvs/dbt-rpc-client
$ source ~/.venvs/dbt-rpc-client/bin/activate

2. Once inside the virtual environment, run make dev_install at the root of the repository:

$ (dbt-rpc-client) make dev_install

3. Run the tox testing suite in the appropriate python environment to ensure things are working properly:

$ (dbt-rpc-client) tox -e py37

To format your code using isort and flake8 before commiting changes, run the following commands:

$ (dbt-rpc-client) make isort
$ (dbt-rpc-client) make flake8

Once you've confirmed that your changes work and the testing suite passes, feel free to put out a PR!
