Kinetica already existed as a native connection type, but the dbt side was
stubbed: profiles.yml emitted host/port/ssl fields the adapter does not accept,
partial profile updates threw "Unsupported connection type", and no install
path knew about the dbt-kinetica package.

Package install

  • Add src/shared/dbtAdapterPackages.ts as the single list of adapter packages and install sources. dbt-kinetica is not on PyPI; it installs from the GitHub source archive so end users do not need a local git executable.
  • Version service, onboarding wizard and all Settings install flows read from that list. Settings offers Install / Update from source for dbt-kinetica instead of a PyPI version list; pinned installs are refused with a message.
  • dbt-kinetica requires dbt-core <2, so it is blocked under the v2 preview with a Kinetica-specific warning in the version-change plan.

Profile mapping

  • Add src/main/utils/kineticaProfile.ts, shared by the full generator and the partial updater, emitting the adapter's real field set: host (full URL), user, password, schema (defaults to ki_home), optional database label, threads, disable_auto_discovery, skip_ssl_cert_verification.
  • Add src/shared/kineticaUrl.ts and export the built URL as db-url- in all four env-setup paths. Replace three duplicated URL builders in the GPUdb driver, extractor and JDBC generator with the shared helper.
  • The client timeout (ms) is intentionally not written to the profile; the adapter default (no limit) is safer for long DDL and custom values survive partial updates.
  • Support importing an existing dbt-kinetica profiles.yml into a connection.

Other

  • Map the kinetica adapter to sqlglot's postgres dialect for lineage.
  • Store dbt connection credentials as env placeholders like other adapters.
  • Add docs/adapters/kinetica.md with install, field mapping and verification.

Tests: new kineticaUrl, kineticaProfile and yamlPartialUpdate cases; updated
connectors.service, dbtCoreVersion.service and DbtSettings suites for the new
package and profile shape.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request adds Kinetica as a supported connection and dbt adapter. It centralizes URL and profile handling, supports source installation from GitHub, updates connection and setup flows, adds lineage mapping, and documents Kinetica-specific behavior.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Correct the bulk-install confirmation list.

ADAPTER_PACKAGES now includes dbt-kinetica, so bulk installation includes it. The confirmation lists only the prior six adapters. It also does not state that Kinetica installs from GitHub. Build this text from the shared package metadata so the confirmed operation matches the actual install set.

- Line 1564: Update buildKineticaProfileOutput and the parsing flow used by
parseProjectConnectionFiles so exact env_var expressions in devOutput.host or
devOutput.url are resolved from process.env before parseKineticaUrl receives the
value; preserve the existing localhost fallback for unresolved or absent values,
and add a round-trip test covering a generated Kinetica profile.

and port assignment so it detects whether the host authority included an
explicit port before normalization; only apply the form port when no authority
port was provided, including default ports such as HTTPS 443. Preserve the
explicit host port in the resulting URL while retaining the existing fallback
for hosts without one.

Pin the source archive to an immutable revision.

This command installs from the mutable main branch. A later upstream branch compromise can make Studio users install attacker-controlled package code. Pin a reviewed commit SHA, and update the shared package-source metadata to use the same immutable revision.

Kinetica already existed as a native connection type, but the dbt side
was
stubbed: profiles.yml emitted host/port/ssl fields the adapter does not
accept,
partial profile updates threw "Unsupported connection type", and no
install
path knew about the dbt-kinetica package.

Package install
- Add src/shared/dbtAdapterPackages.ts as the single list of adapter
  packages
  and install sources. dbt-kinetica is not on PyPI; it installs from the
  GitHub
  source archive so end users do not need a local git executable.
- Version service, onboarding wizard and all Settings install flows read
  from
  that list. Settings offers Install / Update from source for
  dbt-kinetica
  instead of a PyPI version list; pinned installs are refused with a
  message.
- dbt-kinetica requires dbt-core <2, so it is blocked under the v2
  preview
  with a Kinetica-specific warning in the version-change plan.

Profile mapping
- Add src/main/utils/kineticaProfile.ts, shared by the full generator
  and the
  partial updater, emitting the adapter's real field set: host (full
  URL),
  user, password, schema (defaults to ki_home), optional database label,
  threads, disable_auto_discovery, skip_ssl_cert_verification.
- Add src/shared/kineticaUrl.ts and export the built URL as
  db-url-<conn> in
  all four env-setup paths. Replace three duplicated URL builders in the
  GPUdb driver, extractor and JDBC generator with the shared helper.
- The client timeout (ms) is intentionally not written to the profile;
  the
  adapter default (no limit) is safer for long DDL and custom values
  survive
  partial updates.
- Support importing an existing dbt-kinetica profiles.yml into a
  connection.

Other
- Map the kinetica adapter to sqlglot's postgres dialect for lineage.
- Store dbt connection credentials as env placeholders like other
  adapters.
- Add docs/adapters/kinetica.md with install, field mapping and
  verification.

Tests: new kineticaUrl, kineticaProfile and yamlPartialUpdate cases;
updated
connectors.service, dbtCoreVersion.service and DbtSettings suites for
the new
package and profile shape.
- Pin the dbt-kinetica source archive to commit 92f4866 instead of the
  mutable main branch (CWE-494). Applied in the adapter doc, the shared
  install-source metadata, and the unit test that asserts the pip
  requirement. Updated the metadata comment and doc wording to explain
  that "Update from source" reinstalls the pinned revision until the SHA
  is bumped.
- Resolve exact `{{ env_var("...") }}` placeholders from process.env
  before parsing the Kinetica host in parseProfilesYml, so profiles
  generated by the Studio can be imported. Added a generated-profile
  round-trip test.
- Detect an explicit authority port in buildKineticaUrl before URL
  normalization, so a scheme-default port (e.g. `tenant:443` over https)
  is no longer overridden by the form port. Fixes the Kinetica Cloud
  path case.
