This extension makes vscode seamlessly work with dbt and Biq Query
This extension is a fork of and extensively based on the vscode-dbt-power-user extension made by Innoverio and adds
a preview sql command that compiles (if not updated) the model and runs the compiled sql
on BigQuery.
The Big Query integration uses code based on the vscode-big-query extension but has been extensively modified.
The vscode-dbt-bigquery-power-user extension is a drop-in replacement for vscode-dbt-power-user and
is incompatible with concurrent usage (as they use the same config and registered commands).
On the other hand, you can still install the vscode-bigquery extension (and use the same config) which will allow you to run BigQuery sql queries on compiled dbt sql files.
The preview sql extension was forked and extensively modified from the vscode-query-runner project
which hasn't been updated in three years.
See below for a look of the added Preview SQL pane.
The highlights of this extension are:
A Show Compiled SQL menu icon that opens the compiled sql version of your models
An Open Query Runner menu icon that runs the compiled sql and displays the results in another panel
The Query Runner panel that displays the results of the query.
The Rerun Query button which allows you to update the model in your original panel and rerun the query (including the compilation) as well as the Results navigation buttons to see the next/prev page of results.
The Download buttons which allow to display the results (with a choice of JSON, text, or csv formats) as well as download the data into the logs/results folder of the dbt-project.
(new in version 0.5.20) An automatic limit clause that can be configured to default to true or false and the default limit amount can
also be changed (default value: 10000). Unchecking the checkbox and rerunning the query will run the query without the limit clause. (Note: this limit does not apply to the download buttons)
Also fixed for in 0.5.20: Checking, installing, and upgrading the dbt package now works with the latest versions of dbt.
Fixed in 0.5.21: Remove ambiguity in looking up compiled/run target sql files from models/analysis sql file
Fixed in 0.5.24: Fix bug #1 that causes an error message "Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat..." for those running VS Code on Windows. Please update if you've encountered this problem in the past and retry again. Thanks for your patience.
