Model generator #113

Hi

I was looking into this project and wondering how people are using this at scale? I think the macros are a massive benefit for making sure no boiler plate code is needed but still, creating a model file for each data vault object x 1000ths of tables seems a bit painful.

How are other people solving this?

Hi. This is something we want (and already do internally) too! We generate models and we're currently working on a cli tool to achieve this, see our Roadmap. No ETA just yet, but we're hoping for a prototype/alpha in due course.
