dbt-tests-adapter

This package is responsible for:

  • defining database connection methods
  • caching information from databases
  • determining how relations are defined

There are two major adapter types: base and sql

Directories

base

Defines the base implementation Adapters can use to build out full functionality.

sql

Defines a sql implementation for adapters that initially inherits the base implementation and comes with some pre-made methods and macros that can be overwritten as needed per adapter. (most common type of adapter.)

Files

cache.py

factory.py

Defines how we generate adapter objects

protocol.py

Defines various interfaces for various adapter objects. Helps mypy correctly resolve methods.

reference_keys.py
