Elementary 0.5.4

November 3, 2022: v0.5.4 Python, v0.5.4 dbt package

🔥 What’s new?

• Source freshness alerts 🥬🔔

  • Elementary now provides alerts for all dbt operations, including source freshness!
  • Here are the docs.

• Artifacts are uploaded at on-run-end hooks ⚡️

  • You no longer need to run dbt run --select elementary on merge!
  • This will keep metadata up-to-date and avoid inconsistency with alerts and report.
  • We also made changes to the upload method to improve performance.

• New dbt_invocations table 🆕⏱

  • Tracks run times, command, vars, selected_resources, dbt and Elementary versions

• Improved report performance 📊

  • Based on your feedback, we invested a lot in performance improvements in the report to make it slick for big envs.
  • We are still improving the lineage screen, but this is already an improvement.

• Improved lineage screen filters 🔽

  • Thank you @Björn van Dijkman for valuable product feedback!
