Common Rule Config
  • name: Human-readable name of the rule.
  • severity: "error" (fail) or "warning" (warn only).
    • (optional, defaults to "error" if not specified)
  • description: Human-readable explanation of the rule.
  • includes: List of patterns to explicitly include for this rule.
      Paths are relative to the original_file_path from the manifest.
      Pattern syntax:
    • * matches any characters except / (within a single directory)
    • ** matches any characters including / (across directories)
    • ^ at the start anchors to the beginning of the path
    • $ at the end anchors to the end of the path
    • Without anchors, pattern matches if it appears anywhere in the path (contains)
        Examples:     ^models/staging/ - paths starting with models/staging/     orders - paths containing orders anywhere     .sql$ - paths ending with .sql     ^models/*.sql$ - SQL files directly in models/ folder     ^models/**/*.sql$ - SQL files in any subfolder of models/
  • excludes: List of patterns to explicitly exclude from this rule.
      Uses the same pattern syntax as includes.
      Examples:     ^models/legacy/ - exclude legacy models folder     _deprecated - exclude paths containing _deprecated     ^tests/ - exclude test files
  • model_materializations: Filter models by materialization type. Only applies when applies_to includes models.
      (optional, if not specified all materializations are included)
      Built-in types: table, view, incremental, ephemeral, materialized_view. Custom materializations are also supported.
      Example: ["table", "incremental"]
