Wrote a simple CLI tool that converts dbt models into looker view files. Once you've built your dbt project, run dbt2looker and copy the files over to looker.
Features:
- Auto-generates a Looker view per dbt model
- Supports dbt model and column-level descriptions
- Automatically maps raw column types to looker types
- Creates dimension groups for datetime/timestamp/date types
- Currently supports: BigQuery, Snowflake, Redshift (postgres to come)
