---

Run your dbt Core projects as Apache Airflow DAGs and Task Groups with a few lines of code. Benefits include:

• Run dbt projects against Airflow connections instead of dbt profiles
• Native support for installing and running dbt in a virtual environment to avoid dependency conflicts with Airflow
• Run tests immediately after a model is done to catch issues early
• Utilize Airflow's data-aware scheduling to run models immediately after upstream ingestion
• Turn each dbt model into a task/task group complete with retries, alerting, etc.

Quickstart

Check out the Getting Started guide on our docs. See more examples at /dev/dags and at the cosmos-demo repo.

Example Usage

You can render a Cosmos Airflow DAG using the DbtDag class. Here's an example with the jaffle_shop project:

astronomer-cosmos/dev/dags/basic_cosmos_dag.py

Lines 1 to 42 in 24aa38e

	"""
	An example DAG that uses Cosmos to render a dbt project.
	"""
	import os
	from datetime import datetime
	from pathlib import Path
	from cosmos import DbtDag, ProjectConfig, ProfileConfig
	from cosmos.profiles import PostgresUserPasswordProfileMapping
	DEFAULT_DBT_ROOT_PATH = Path(__file__).parent / "dbt"
	DBT_ROOT_PATH = Path(os.getenv("DBT_ROOT_PATH", DEFAULT_DBT_ROOT_PATH))
	profile_config = ProfileConfig(
	profile_name="default",
	target_name="dev",
	profile_mapping=PostgresUserPasswordProfileMapping(
	conn_id="airflow_db",
	profile_args={"schema": "public"},
	),
	)
	# [START local_example]
	basic_cosmos_dag = DbtDag(
	# dbt/cosmos-specific parameters
	project_config=ProjectConfig(
	DBT_ROOT_PATH / "jaffle_shop",
	),
	profile_config=profile_config,
	operator_args={
	"install_deps": True, # install any necessary dependencies before running any dbt command
	"full_refresh": True, # used only in dbt commands that support this flag
	},
	# normal dag parameters
	schedule_interval="@daily",
	start_date=datetime(2023, 1, 1),
	catchup=False,
	dag_id="basic_cosmos_dag",
	default_args={"retries": 2},
	)
	# [END local_example]

This will generate an Airflow DAG that looks like this:
