Build command examples
Using the plus (+) operator
Select a specific model
Select model_1 only.
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
Select all downstream assets
Select model_1 and all of its downstream dependencies.
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
Select all upstream assets
Select model_2 and all of its upstream dependencies.
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
Select all upstream and downstream assets
Select model_1 and all of its upstream and downstream dependencies.
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
Using set operators
Unions
Running y42 build with a whitespace-separation between options selects the union of all the options provided. All assets that fulfill the selection criteria for at least one option are selected.
Intersections
On the other hand, running y42 build with a comma-separation between options without whitespaces selects the intersection of all the options provided. Only assets that fulfill the selection criteria for all options are selected.
Combining flags and operators
Select the intersection of two options
Select assets that are upstream from model_3 (inclusive) but also downstream from model_1 (inclusive).
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
Select and exclude assets simultaneously
Select all upstream and downstream assets from model_1 but exclude a specified source, src_shopify
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
Other operators
Select assets that are N edges away
Select src_shopify and assets that are up two 2 edges away.
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
Select an asset's children and all the parents of its children
Select src_hubspot and all of its children, plus all the upstream assets of its children
Directed acyclic graph (DAG).
