Configuring sources

Examples

Disable all sources imported from a package

To apply a configuration to all sources included from a package, state your configuration under the project name in the sources: config as a part of the resource path.

dbt_project.yml

sources:
  events:
    +enabled: false

Disable a single source from a package

To disable a specific source from another package, qualify the resource path for your configuration with both a package name and a source name. In this case, we're disabling the clickstream source from the events package.

dbt_project.yml

sources:
  events:
    clickstream:
      +enabled: false

Similarly, you can disable a specific table from a source by qualifying the resource path with a package name, source name, and table name:

dbt_project.yml

sources:
  events:
    clickstream:
      pageviews:
        +enabled: false

Example source configuration

The following is a valid source configuration for a project with:

• name: jaffle_shop
• A package called events containing multiple source tables

dbt_project.yml

name: jaffle_shop
config-version: 2
...
sources:
  # project names
  jaffle_shop:
    +enabled: true

  events:
    # source names
    clickstream:
      # table names
      pageviews:
        +enabled: false
      link_clicks:
        +enabled: true
