Is there a way to access dbt docs for a package via meltano ?
d
meltano invoke <plugin> <args>
directly forwards commands to the plugin's executable, so
meltano invoke dbt docs generate
and
meltano invoke dbt docs serve
should just work!

yeah but I think it would be something to think about for production use cases where non technical folks can access the data docs. I say this because I want to make future meltano the single source of truth for all moving and processing of data for BI.
I think it is fairly easy to integrate technically but as a product, where and how to connect the dots is something worth thinking about

Ah yeah, good point — it would be cool to link directly from Meltano UI to a dbt docs frame or subpage or something.
I think we'll have some work to do on making the dbt integration easier to use in the first place, but that would be a natural next step
And I'm very happy you intend to be involved in the future of Meltano 🙂
