edr --project-dir is not used when edr calls an underlying dbt command
Describe the bug
When running edr report --project-dir <myprojectdir> when edr runs an underlying dbt command it does not use the supplied project-dir, but instead the project-dir from where edr is installed to.
Is it possible to utilize an existing dbt project when running the edr commands? or does edr require using it's internal dbt installation and configurations?
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Run edr report with specifying the project-dir option to point to an existing dbt installation
- See error
edr report --project-dir /project/
024-10-08 19:59:47 — INFO — Running dbt command --log-format json run-operation elementary.log_macro_results --args {"macro_name": "elementary_cli.get_test_results", "macro_args": {"days_back": 7, "invocations_per_test": 720, "disable_passed_test_metrics": false}} --project-dir /usr/local/python/3.12.6/lib/python3.12/site-packages/elementary/monitor/dbt_project
Expected behavior
edr report --project-dir /project/
