Show HN: Lineage-Diff for dbt data projects (no account required)

3 pointsby dave_infuseaiover 1 year ago
Lineage-diff is a feature in PipeRider.io that visualizes code changes in dbt projects.<p>As part of a proof-of-concept, we made this standalone tool that takes just a dbt project&#x27;s manifest file and displays basic project info, including a lineage DAG - no account or login required.<p>If you upload two manifest files, you can view the Lineage Diff.<p>It&#x27;s a great way to see the before-and-after of code changes.<p>I&#x27;ve uploaded some manifest.json files to Google drive from a Jaffle Shop dbt project, so you can try it out easily:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;drive.google.com&#x2F;drive&#x2F;folders&#x2F;1XSb3dcYs22A3xA_NKg2XQMTniQATxImA?usp=sharing" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;drive.google.com&#x2F;drive&#x2F;folders&#x2F;1XSb3dcYs22A3xA_NKg2X...</a><p>I also wrote a short blog about the tool (including gif that shows how it works):<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;inthepipeline&#x2F;dbt-lineage-diff-from-manifest-json-in-10-seconds-no-account-required-4a0af95371ee" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;inthepipeline&#x2F;dbt-lineage-diff-from-manif...</a><p>Lineage Diff is only one aspect of PipeRider and, of course, if you run PipeRider on your data project you&#x27;ll get much more info than is shown in this report, such as data profile-diff and impact scope etc.<p>If you use dbt for your daily work and find this useful I&#x27;d love to hear from you.
