Trying to run dbt deps in the `dagster cloud post install sh

Question

Trying to run dbt deps in the `dagster cloud post install sh` file which works well on slow deploy but this file does not seem to be run for fast deploys so I end up without the dbt packages installed and definitions will not load successfully Any way to solve this or should we stick to slow deploys

Hi Aliénor yes `dagster cloud post install sh` only works with the slow deploys If you want to package data with the fast deploys you can use the package data feature in setup py <https docs python org 3 distutils setupscript html installing package data|https docs python org 3 distutils setupscript html installing package data> Any files you copy into you main package will also get copied to the current directory when it is run

I wanted to share this example of how we package the dbt files for our quickstart repo which works for fast deploys including the files in the files Let me know if this helps
