Probably a beginner question.
How to materialize assets + downstream assets into an OP / JOB ?
I have all my DBT models as dagster assets.
I now want to run an asset (or a dbt model), and all its downstream assets, jsut like the equivalent of :
"dbt run --select +my_model"
In the example, provided here :
https://docs.dagster.io/concepts/assets/asset-materializations
either one asset is selected, either it uses dbt "tags". Which is not what i'm trying to achieve.
Anyone knows how to do so ? 👀

Unlike jobs created using the job decorator where you explicitly define the dependencies when you create the job, the topology of an asset-based job is based on the assets and their dependencies.c

I'll look further to find how to implement this for my use case ! Thanks Andrea

Therefore, it being a job is not very convenient since I cannot put it into a job step to order my tasks.
Example : Extract & Load through my python job with 2 ops , then materialize the Model (Transform step).Not sure if i'm missing something

I might have done something wrong ? (cf : screen)
