The error message you're encountering indicates that the compute function for the op

dag_dbt_assets

is yielding an object of type

AssetsDefinition

instead of an

Output

,

AssetMaterialization

, or

ExpectationResult

. In Dagster, when you define a compute function for an op, you are expected to yield or return one of these specific types to indicate the result of the computation. The

@dbt_assets

decorator is used to define a collection of assets that are produced by dbt models. The compute function within this decorator should yield events such as

Output

,

AssetMaterialization

, or

AssetObservation

. However, the function

load_assets_from_dbt_project

seems to be returning an

AssetsDefinition

object, which is not a valid type to yield from an op compute function. To resolve this issue, you should ensure that the body of the

dag_dbt_assets

function yields the correct types. If

load_assets_from_dbt_project

is intended to define assets, you might need to refactor your code to use the assets it defines directly, rather than trying to yield them from within the

@dbt_assets

decorated function. If

load_assets_from_dbt_project

is a function that is supposed to run dbt commands and yield asset-related events, then you need to make sure that it yields the correct types of events that Dagster expects. If it's not designed to be used within an op compute function, you may need to use a different approach to integrate dbt with your Dagster assets. Without more context on what

load_assets_from_dbt_project

does, it's difficult to provide a precise solution. However, the key takeaway is that within the body of an op compute function, you should only yield or return the types of events that Dagster expects, and

AssetsDefinition

is not one of them.

@Scout

from dagster_dbt import load_assets_from_dbt_project

The function

load_assets_from_dbt_project

from the

dagster_dbt

library is designed to load a set of dbt models from a dbt project into Dagster assets. When you use this function, it creates one Dagster asset for each dbt model, and all assets will be re-materialized using a single dbt run or dbt build command. The error you're encountering suggests that there might be a misunderstanding about how to use the

load_assets_from_dbt_project

function within the Dagster framework. The

@dbt_assets

decorator is used to define assets based on dbt models, and within the decorated function, you should yield events that Dagster can handle, such as

Output

,

AssetMaterialization

, or

ExpectationResult

. If you're using

load_assets_from_dbt_project

to define assets, you should not need to use the

@dbt_assets

decorator. Instead, you would typically call

load_assets_from_dbt_project

at the module level, not within an op or asset compute function, to define your assets based on your dbt project. Here's a simplified example of how you might use `load_assets_from_dbt_project`:

python from dagster_dbt import load_assets_from_dbt_project  # Assuming DBT_PROJECT_PATH and DBT_PROFILES_DIR are defined appropriately dbt_assets = load_assets_from_dbt_project(     project_dir=DBT_PROJECT_PATH,     profiles_dir=DBT_PROFILES_DIR,     use_build_command=True )

In this example,

dbt_assets

would be a collection of Dagster assets generated from your dbt project. You would then include these assets in your Dagster repository. Please ensure that you are following the latest documentation and examples for the

dagster_dbt

integration to correctly set up your dbt assets within Dagster. If you continue to encounter issues, you may want to consult the documentation for

dagster_dbt

or seek further assistance with a more detailed code example and context.

@Scout i think the error originates at this code:

defs = Definitions(
    assets=[dag_dbt_assets, mean_transactions_per_month],
    resources=model_resources, 
    jobs=[run_dbt_test_job]
)

can it be refactored?

Based on the documentation, the

Definitions

class is used to collect and define assets, resources, and jobs that you want to include in your Dagster repository. However, the

dag_dbt_assets

function you've shown earlier is decorated with

@dbt_assets

, which means it's already defining assets. You should not need to include it in the

assets

list within

Definitions

. Instead, the

dag_dbt_assets

function should automatically create assets based on your dbt project when it's invoked. These assets are instances of

AssetsDefinition

, and they should not be manually added to the

Definitions

object. Here's how you might refactor your code:

python from dagster import define_asset_job, repository from dagster_dbt import dbt_cli_resource  # Assuming mean_transactions_per_month is a valid asset definition from your_assets_module import mean_transactions_per_month  # Define your resources, including the dbt_cli_resource model_resources = {     "dbt": dbt_cli_resource.configured({...})  # Configure with appropriate settings }  # Define a job that includes the dbt assets and any other assets you have @define_asset_job(     name="run_dbt_test_job",     selection=[mean_transactions_per_month.name],  # Select specific assets if needed     resource_defs=model_resources ) def run_dbt_test_job():     # Job definition goes here     pass  # Define your repository @repository def my_repository():     return [run_dbt_test_job, mean_transactions_per_month]

In this refactored code: - We define

model_resources

with the necessary resources, including

dbt_cli_resource

. - We create a job

run_dbt_test_job

that includes the necessary assets. If

mean_transactions_per_month

is an asset, it can be included in the job's selection. - We use the

@repository

decorator to define the repository, which includes the job and the

mean_transactions_per_month

asset. Please note that the

@define_asset_job

decorator is used to create a job that materializes a set of assets. If

mean_transactions_per_month

is an asset, it can be included directly in the job definition. Make sure to adjust the code to fit the actual structure and requirements of your project. If

mean_transactions_per_month

is not an asset, you would need to adjust the selection accordingly. The

dbt_cli_resource

should be configured with the appropriate settings for your dbt project and profiles directory.
