# `prefect_dbt.cli.configs.base`

Module containing models for base configs

## Classes

### `DbtConfigs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L14" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

Abstract class for other dbt Configs.

**Attributes:**

* `extras`: Extra target configs' keywords, not yet exposed
  in prefect-dbt, but available in dbt; if there are
  duplicate keys between extras and TargetConfigs,
  an error will be raised.

**Methods:**

#### `get_configs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L99" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
get_configs(self) -> dict[str, Any]
```

Returns the dbt configs, likely used eventually for writing to profiles.yml.

**Returns:**

* A configs JSON.

### `BaseTargetConfigs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L109" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

**Methods:**

#### `get_configs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L99" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
get_configs(self) -> dict[str, Any]
```

Returns the dbt configs, likely used eventually for writing to profiles.yml.

**Returns:**

* A configs JSON.

#### `handle_target_configs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L128" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
handle_target_configs(cls, v: Any) -> Any
```

Handle target configs field aliasing during validation

### `TargetConfigs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L140" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

Target configs contain credentials and
settings, specific to the warehouse you're connecting to.
To find valid keys, head to the [Available adapters](https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/available-adapters) page and
click the desired adapter's "Profile Setup" hyperlink.

**Attributes:**

* `type`: The name of the database warehouse.
* `schema`: The schema that dbt will build objects into;
  in BigQuery, a schema is actually a dataset.
* `threads`: The number of threads representing the max number
  of paths through the graph dbt may work on at once.

**Examples:**

Load stored TargetConfigs:

```python  theme={null}
from prefect_dbt.cli.configs import TargetConfigs

dbt_cli_target_configs = TargetConfigs.load("BLOCK_NAME")
```

**Methods:**

#### `from_profiles_yml` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L169" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
from_profiles_yml(cls: Type[Self], profile_name: Optional[str] = None, target_name: Optional[str] = None, profiles_dir: Optional[str] = None, allow_field_overrides: bool = False) -> 'TargetConfigs'
```

Create a TargetConfigs instance from a dbt profiles.yml file.

**Args:**

* `profile_name`: Name of the profile to use from profiles.yml.
  If None, uses the first profile.
* `target_name`: Name of the target to use from the profile.
  If None, uses the default target in the selected profile.
* `profiles_dir`: Path to the directory containing profiles.yml.
  If None, uses the default profiles directory.
* `allow_field_overrides`: If enabled, fields from dbt target configs
  will override fields provided in extras and credentials.

**Returns:**

* A TargetConfigs instance populated from the profiles.yml target.

**Raises:**

* `ValueError`: If profiles.yml is not found or if profile/target is invalid

#### `handle_target_configs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L128" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
handle_target_configs(cls, v: Any) -> Any
```

Handle target configs field aliasing during validation

### `GlobalConfigs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L247" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

Global configs control things like the visual output
of logs, the manner in which dbt parses your project,
and what to do when dbt finds a version mismatch
or a failing model. Docs can be found [here](https://docs.getdbt.com/reference/global-configs).

**Attributes:**

* `send_anonymous_usage_stats`: Whether usage stats are sent to dbt.
* `use_colors`: Colorize the output it prints in your terminal.
* `partial_parse`: When partial parsing is enabled, dbt will use an
  stored internal manifest to determine which files have been changed
  (if any) since it last parsed the project.
* `printer_width`: Length of characters before starting a new line.
* `write_json`: Determines whether dbt writes JSON artifacts to
  the target/ directory.
* `warn_error`: Whether to convert dbt warnings into errors.
* `log_format`: The LOG\_FORMAT config specifies how dbt's logs should
  be formatted. If the value of this config is json, dbt will
  output fully structured logs in JSON format.
* `debug`: Whether to redirect dbt's debug logs to standard out.
* `version_check`: Whether to raise an error if a project's version
  is used with an incompatible dbt version.
* `fail_fast`: Make dbt exit immediately if a single resource fails to build.
* `use_experimental_parser`: Opt into the latest experimental version
  of the static parser.
* `static_parser`: Whether to use the [static parser](https://docs.getdbt.com/reference/parsing#static-parser).

**Examples:**

Load stored GlobalConfigs:

```python  theme={null}
from prefect_dbt.cli.configs import GlobalConfigs

dbt_cli_global_configs = GlobalConfigs.load("BLOCK_NAME")
```

**Methods:**

#### `get_configs` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L99" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>

```python  theme={null}
get_configs(self) -> dict[str, Any]
```

Returns the dbt configs, likely used eventually for writing to profiles.yml.

**Returns:**

* A configs JSON.

### `MissingExtrasRequireError` <sup><a href="https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/integrations/prefect-dbt/prefect_dbt/cli/configs/base.py#L355" target="_blank"><Icon icon="github" style="width: 14px; height: 14px;" /></a></sup>
