Add to list of adapters at docs.getdbt.com #23

Closed dbeatty10 closed 2 years ago

dbeatty10 commented 3 years ago

Directions for adding to docs.getdbt.com:

  1. Add a new file for the mysql plugin within this folder (follow the format for existing plugins)
  2. Add a link to this new file in the sidebar

The new plugin should show up in a local build of the docs for dbt core.

Here are some existing examples: https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/supported-databases/profile-mssql

bumping this with the blurb I'm adding to all the undocumented adapters. but @dbeatty10 your adapter is much loved by the community (not to mention me)!

The Available Adapters page is one of the dbt community's most-visited docs pages. It would be of great benefit for first-time visitors to the dbt docs to see:

  1. that this adapter is a possible option for using dbt-core, and
  2. how many large the dbt ecosystem of support databases is.

https://github.com/dbt-labs/docs.getdbt.com/issues/1489 exists to address this with all as-of-yet undocumented adapters.

We just released Documenting a new adapter, a new guide on how to add an adapter to the Available Adapters page. I'd love to see this adapter on that page, so feel free to reach out with any questions/blockers by either replying to this issue, or posting in the #adapter-ecosystem channel of the dbt Community Slack.

Looking forward to the contribution!
