skippr-dbt init¶

Initialise a new project in the current directory.

Usage¶

skippr-dbt init <project-name>

What it does¶

Creates skippr-dbt.yaml with the project name.
Creates .env.example listing the required environment variables.

Arguments¶

Argument	Required	Description
`project-name`	Yes	Project identifier. Used as the pipeline name and default dbt schema prefix.

Example¶

mkdir my-workspace && cd my-workspace
skippr-dbt init mssql-migration

Output:

Initialised project 'mssql-migration' in /Users/me/my-workspace

Next steps:
  skippr-dbt connect warehouse snowflake
  skippr-dbt connect source mssql
  skippr-dbt doctor
  skippr-dbt run

Notes¶

Running init in a directory that already contains skippr-dbt.yaml will fail. Delete the existing file first to re-initialise.
The project name should be a valid identifier (letters, numbers, underscores). It is used to name warehouse schemas (e.g. mssql_migration_silver).
