[Question] How does dbt-duckdb versioning relate to dbt-core? #461

Closed benjaminbauer closed 1 month ago

benjaminbauer commented 1 month ago

If I want to use e.g. dbt-duckdb in v1.9.0

  1. It supports dbt-core <= v1.9.0
  2. It supports dbt-core >= v1.9.0
  3. There is no tested/fixed correlation between dbt-duckdb and dbt-core versioning

Either way, it would be cool to have a README section for this

The decoupling of dbt-<adapter> and dbt-core is a recent phenomenon, and I suspect we will keep de facto parity with them for awhile. In this case, we cut dbt-duckdb 1.9.0 b/c of a bug from where we had a hidden dependency on a feature in dbt-core 1.8.x that was removed in dbt-core 1.9.0.

So dbt-duckdb 1.x should work with dbt-core <= 1.x?

dbt-duckdb 1.x should always work with dbt-core 1.x; the ability of dbt-duckdb 1.9.0 to work with dbt-core 1.8.x is a recent phenomenon where dbt broke out the adapter interface into a separate module (https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt-adapters ) that is upstream of dbt-core.
