Hello, I’m currently having an issue with installing and using dbt locally in docker: After a proper

Copy code

meltano add transformer dbt

I have the following issue:

Copy code

Unable to find image 'dbt:latest' locally
docker: Error response from daemon: pull access denied for dbt, repository does not exist or may require 'docker login': denied: requested access to the resource is denied.

Can you help me out? It seems that the pip_url in

files:
  - name: dbt
    pip_url: git+<https://gitlab.com/meltano/files-dbt.git@config-version-2>

is not reachable (404). Not sure it’s related.

docker? that wouldn't come from this by default, please share your

meltano.yml

, and logs with debug on

(the current container spec being worked on was a little suspect, but https://meltano.com/discovery.yml looks fine to me)

I got my issue fixed @visch. At least I think. I am now running the command

Copy code

docker run -v $(pwd):/project \
             -w /project \
             -p 5000:5000 \
                meltano invoke dbt:run

the only thing I’ve yet been able to do is the dbt docs generate nor the dbt docs serve.

Also @visch, do we have an example where we implement dbt from end-to-end in a full elt pipeline? the only one I found is explaining the concepts but do not dig into the way we can connect the transform part to a current pipeline

I’ve set up everything, but when running the full command

Copy code

docker run -v $(pwd):/project \
             -w /project \
             -p 5000:5000 \
             meltano --log-level=debug elt tap-whise-lang target-postgres --transform run

I end up with

Nothing to do. Try checking your model configs and model specification args

@charley_guillaume you can probably override models in your plugin dbt config. The default expects

tap_whise_lang

is a valid model selector for your dbt models. Also, feel free to jump in office hours if you can and we could even help you debug live 😄

Thanks @edgar_ramirez_mondragon ! Won't be available this afternoon however but since you'll be talking about dbt, I'll definitely watch the stream! The discovery.yml is super interesting as it is extremely complete. I'll look into that
