Hey everyone! This is very WIP, but I created an extension for dbt-fal built with the E, which allows one to run dags as python code (we're mainly using it for slack notifications atm). Here is the link, if you're interested

Awesome! @Stéphane Burwash are you planning on submitting a Hub PR 😄 ? I just merged the elementary one 🎉
s
@taylor once I get it tested, definitely 😄

Cool - I’d love your thoughts on using fal vs registering python scripts as separate utilities in meltano and running those. I think you can get similar functionality out of a pure Meltano experience, but it wouldn’t be as ingrained with dbt as fal is
s
I didn't really look into a pure meltano option. The beauty of fal for me was the simplicty of implementation with DBT + the ease with which you can query model data Ex: You can simply query data through the "context" parameter ->
context.current_model.name

Very cool. We should get you to write a blog post about these utilities if you haven’t already 😄 cc @Sven Balnojan

Would be my pleasure 😄
