Using Integrations

Most Dagster integrations follow a common pattern:

1. Install the package:

   pip install dagster-<integration>
   

2. Import and configure a resource:

   from dagster_<integration> import <Integration>Resource
   
   resource = <Integration>Resource(
       config_param=dg.EnvVar("ENV_VAR")
   )
   

3. Use in your assets:

   @dg.asset
   def my_asset(integration: <Integration>Resource):
       # Use the integration
       pass
   

For component-based integrations (dbt, Fivetran, dlt, Sling), see the specific reference files for scaffolding and configuration patterns.
