Here's what prism connect does under the hood:

1. Parses the prism_project.py file and gets the PROFILE_YML_PATH value. If this value isn't specified, then it defaults to the project directory.

2. It checks to see if PROFILE_YML_PATH exists

   • If it doesn't, it creates a new YML file at PROFILE_YML_PATH and populates it with a profile of type --type

   • If it does, it then adds a profile of type --type to the existing file.

Example

Here's what the output will look like in Terminal (if there are no errors in the project):

$ prism connect --type snowflake

Here's what the profile.yml file looks like after running the above command:

# profile.yml
