Option to follow docs tags from model config to md file

Open pekapa opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Describe the feature

DBT allows users to create documentation blocks inside *.md files to be linked with the {{ doc() }} function within the model configuration (source). When the model structure starts to grow and they start to reference columns (and their documentations) from other models it can be difficult to trace back and find the description itself. It would be great if you could cmd+click the doc function to follow it to the original just as it's possible to follow ref functions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Other vsc plugins (couldn't find a useful one) Search project wide

Who will benefit?

All dbt developers that has large projects with documentation built within dbt
