This package models GitHub data from Fivetran's connector. It uses data in the format described by this ERD.
This package enables you to better understand your GitHub issues and pull requests. The main focus is to enhance these two core objects with commonly used metrics. Additionally, the metrics tables allow you to better understand your team's velocity over time. These metrics are available on a daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly level.
This package contains transformation models, designed to work simultaneously with our GitHub source package. A depenedency on the source package is declared in this package's packages.yml file, so it will automatically download when you run dbt deps. The primary outputs of this package are described below. Intermediate models are used to create these output models.
| model | description |
|---|---|
| github_issues | Each record represents a GitHub issue, enriched with data about it's assignees, milestones, and time comparisons. |
| github_pull_requests | Each record represents a GitHub pull request, enriched with data about it's repository, reviewers, and durations between review requests, merges and reviews. |
| github_daily_metrics | Each record represents a single day, enriched with metrics about PRs and issues that were created and closed during that period. |
| github_weekly_metrics | Each record represents a single week, enriched with metrics about PRs and issues that were created and closed during that period. |
| github_monthly_metrics | Each record represents a single month, enriched with metrics about PRs and issues that were created and closed during that period. |
| github_quarterly_metrics | Each record represents a single quarter, enriched with metrics about PRs and issues that were created and closed during that period. |
