Prerequisites

• Snowflake account (or trial)

Local development

It’s easiest to develop the plugin by having a side project created with Kedro (e.g. our Snowflights starter), managed by Poetry (since there is no pip install -e support in Poetry). In the side project, just add the following entry in pyproject.toml:

[tool.poetry.dependencies]
kedro-snowflake = { path = "<full path to the plugin on local machine>", develop = true}

and invoke

poetry update
poetry install

and all of the changes made in the plugin will be immediately visible in the side project (just as with pip install -e option).

From that point you can just use

kedro snowflake run --wait-for-completion

to start the pipelines in Snowflake and develop new features/fix bugs.
