Deploy multiple reports and datasets from a single source

[mertbakir]

Today, I played a lot with this pbi-tools. It's very promising and thanks for the good work. I have couple of questions and may be some suggestions.

I currently store .pbix files in git, which is not useful since they are binary files but I still think it's better than storing in onedrive. Anyway...

And store a config.json for each .pbix then deploy the the pbix using powershell based on the parameters defined in the config file. The shell script loops through a list in the config and deploys multiple reports/datasets.

I want to remove .pbix files and store pbi-tools extract , then deploy using github workflows. Couldn't figure out a way to deploy multiple reports. It looks possible by adding more profiles on .pbixproj.json and adding a new step in github-workflow for each profile we want to run.

I'm not sure it's possible though. We need a good documentation for the keys in .pbixproj.json to be able to customize deployments. Also, I think it should be yaml not json.

Thank you. I appreciate that documentation is limited. This project is unfunded and run alongside me earning a living. Documentation is definitely an area where community contributions would be most welcome.
