Hi! Im trying to run elementary in a container with read-only filesystem except for one folder and strict internett access. I noticed that elementary run

dbt deps

in its own dbt project inside

site-packages

to download dbt packages even if

--project-dir

is defined. Is there a easy way to circumvent this or do I have to manually run dbt deps inside

site-packages

in the container build step? See 🧵 for logs.

Command i run. Notice that

--project-dir

and

--profiles-dir

is using the same variable (

DBT_PATH

Copy code

edr send-report \
    --slack-token $TOKEN \
    --slack-channel-name $CHANNEL_INFO \
    --profiles-dir $DBT_PATH \
    --project-dir $DBT_PATH \
    --target-path $EDR_TARGET_PATH \
    --config-dir $SCRIPTPATH \
    --disable-samples true

Output in log:

Hey @Patrick Pedersen (NAV), Elementary checks if its dependencies are up to date, and does

dbt deps

only if they are not. So, running

dbt deps

as a build step will solve it.

That’s ok. But just for curiosity, what is the cli flag

--project-dir

supposed to do? I can’t see any difference in behaviour if elementary finds my project or not.

Something you could consider is bundling the dbt_packages inside the elementary dbt_project.
