sql

Prism users can execute sql queries using the hooks.sql() function. This function takes three arguments:

  1. adapter_name: str: the adapter with which to run the SQL query. This should match the adapter name in profile.yml.

  2. query: str: the SQL query as a string

  3. return_type: Optional[str]: the return type for the SQL query. The default value is None. This simply returns the query data as a list. Other valid options include:

    • pandas if you want to return the data as a Pandas DataFrame

def run(self, tasks, hooks):
    hooks.sql(
        adapter_name="...",
        query="...",
        return_type="pandas"
    )

The configurations for these adapters need to be specified in profile.yml, and they are covered in more detail next.
