Automated Snowflake View Deployment

CI/CD with GitHub Actions

This project uses GitHub Actions to automate the deployment of SQL scripts to different environments in Snowflake:

• DEV: Runs scripts in the DEV schema on every push to any branch (except main).
• QA: Runs scripts in the QA schema only after a successful deploy to DEV.
• PRD: Runs scripts in the production schema (defined by the SCHEMA_PRD variable) after merging into the main branch.

Pipeline Workflow

1. Create a development branch.
2. Add or modify .sql files and commit/push your changes.
3. The pipeline will automatically execute:
   • First in DEV.
   • If DEV succeeds, then in QA.
4. After review, merge into main to trigger deployment to PRD.

Required Secrets

The following secrets must be configured in your repository settings:

• SNOWSQL_ACCOUNT
• SNOWSQL_USER
• SNOWSQL_PWD

Running the Pipeline Manually

You can manually trigger the pipeline from the "Actions" tab in GitHub.

Adding New SQL Scripts

• Add or modify .sql files in your repository.
• On commit and push, the pipeline will detect and execute only the changed .sql files.

Example: Triggering the Pipeline

git checkout -b feature/my-new-view
# Edit or add your .sql files
git add sql/views/my_new_view.sql
git commit -m "feat: add my new view script"
git push origin feature/my-new-view

Open a Pull Request to main when ready for production deployment.

Note:

• The pipeline ensures QA only runs after a successful DEV deploy.
• Production deploys only occur after merging into main.
• All jobs require the Snowflake secrets to be set in the repository.
