[FEATURE] Support Build of datavault using Natural/Business keys #210

Open spatil-1 opened 9 months ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The current release of dbtvault creates the Hash keys for DV object such as HUB/SAT/Link. The data vault 2.0 standard doesn't mandate use of HASH keys, the implementation using natural/business keys is also supported by DV 2.0.

Not sure if this feature already exists and Automate-DV supports implementation without forking the codebase.

I understand the current macros are designed to support implementation with keys only. For example _HUBAirline as below: image

Describe the solution you'd like Macros supporting implementation using Natural/Business keys, for example _HUBAirline as below:

Describe alternatives you've considered
