Defaults

Defaults set the source and alert that are used whenever one is not explicitly specified.

Defaults will be overridden if:

1. A source / alert is passed to a command. ex: visivo serve -s source-name
2. A source is specified directly on the model via the source attribute. When that attribute is set the model will always run queries against that source.

Here's how defaults look in the project.visivo.yml file:

defaults:
  source_name: local-sqlite
  alert_name: notify-slack-on-failure

alerts:
  - name: notify-slack-on-failure
    if: ">{ anyTestFailed() }"
    destinations:
      - ${ref(visivo-slack)}

destinations:
  - name: visivo-slack
    type: slack
    webhook_url: https://hooks.slack.com/services/ap8ub98ssoijbloisojbo8ys8

sources:
  - name: local-sqlite
    database: source/local.db
    type: sqlite
