Overview

dbt-meshify is a CLI tool that automates the creation of model governance and cross-project lineage features introduced in dbt-core v1.5 and v1.6. This package will leverage your dbt project metadata to create and/or edit the files in your project to properly configure the models in your project with these features.

These features include:

1. Groups - group your models into logical sets.
2. Contracts - add model contracts to your models to ensure consistent data shape.
3. Access - control the access level of models within groups
4. Versions - create and increment versions of particular models.
5. Project dependencies - split a monolithic dbt project into component projects, or connect multiple pre-existing dbt projects using cross-project ref.
