Description
Yes, that solved it, thank you very much for this excellent extension!
I had hated using the GCP Dataform web UI for development. I prefer VScode and the dataform CLI. I had built some makefile rules around the dataform cli (e.g. to generate a dependency graph, view the schema of a source). Your extension greatly improves my workflow!
Can I suggest a feature? Dataform unit tests are not supported in GCP and even the cli
dataform test
command can be a bit tricky to debug errors in your test. It does not allow you to execute a single test and show the compiled query, the output and the expected output.My makefile rule for the above (example usage
make df-test-file name=TRANSFERS
):format_flag := $(if $(format),--format=$(format),) df-test-file: # Run a single dataform test query with 'name=' [format=prettyjson] @echo "Running test query:" @dataform compile --json | jq -r '.tests[] | select(.name == "$(name)") | .testQuery' | nl -ba @echo "Actual output:" @dataform compile --json | jq -r '.tests[] | select(.name == "$(name)") | .testQuery' | bq query --nouse_legacy_sql $(format_flag) @echo "Expecting output:" @dataform compile --json | jq -r '.tests[] | select(.name == "$(name)") | .expectedOutputQuery' | bq query --nouse_legacy_sql $(format_flag)
