dbt project

This is the dbt project for the course.

Set up

You need to place a profile for the local postgres instance in ~/.dbt/profiles.yaml. See below a sample config that should be a good starting point if you follow the instructions in the database dir of this project.

dbtlearn:
  outputs:

    dev:
      type: postgres
      threads: 4
      host: localhost
      port: 5432
      user: the user
      pass: the password
      dbname: airbnb
      schema: dev

  target: dev

Once you have set this up and the database as well, you can run dbt debug to ensure everything is set up correctly and dbt can reach the database.

You should also delete the lines under the dbtlearn key in the dbt_project.yml file.

Also delete the contents of the models folder.
