This repository is hosting the exercises provided to students in the context of the dbt course of the Data Minded Academy.
To start click on "Open in Gitpod" button.
In the first exercise, we will use dbt init to set up a connection to the Snowflake
data warehouse.
The connection details are not stored in the workspace itself (but in ~/.dbt/profiles.yml instead)
so every time the Gitpod workspace times out, the connection settings are lost. In that case, you can
run the script /workspace/create_profiles.sh to re-generate this file easily.
In case you want to experiment with dbt without Snowflake credentials, you can use the dbt Playground Gitpod, which uses a local Postgres database as the data warehouse.
