Pipeline

On this page

The user-facing pipeline contract: what you write in models, what you call on the command line, and how the runtime decides to execute.

CLI Reference — every command with syntax and options
Directives — @kind, @unique_key, @incremental, and friends
Environment Variables — .env loading, ONDATRA_* runtime vars
Run Types — skip / backfill / incremental / full, what triggers each, what executes

Run Types

Run type values, triggers, and what executes in each.

CLI Reference

Complete OndatraSQL CLI reference. Every command with syntax and options.

Directives

Directives turn SQL into a data pipeline in OndatraSQL. Control materialization, change detection, validation, outbound sync, and schema with SQL comment annotations.

Environment Variables

OndatraSQL loads secrets and configuration from a .env file at runtime. Use variables in SQL config files and Starlark scripts throughout your data pipeline.
