Extract Script Skill

Generates extraction scripts from Mustache or SSP (Scalate) templates. This is useful for generating custom SQL DDL scripts (CREATE, ALTER, DROP) for different database platforms.

Usage

starlake extract-script [options]

Options

• --domain <value>: Comma-separated list of domains to generate scripts for (default: all)
• --template <value>: Path to the template directory containing Mustache/SSP templates (required)
• --audit-schema <value>: Audit DB schema that will contain the audit export table (required)
• --delta-column <value>: Default date column used for incremental extraction tracking
• --reportFormat <value>: Report output format: console, json, or html

Configuration Context

DDL Templates

Templates are organized by database platform in metadata/extract/ddl/:

metadata/extract/ddl/
├── bigquery/
│   ├── create.ssp
│   ├── alter.ssp
│   └── drop.ssp
├── postgres/
│   └── drop.ssp
└── synapse/
    ├── create.ssp
    ├── alter.ssp
    └── drop.ssp

Template Variables

Templates receive the following variables:

• Domain/schema information (name, tables)
• Table attributes (columns, types, constraints)
• Database-specific type mappings from types/default.sl.yml

Examples

Generate DDL Scripts for All Domains

starlake extract-script --template metadata/extract/ddl/bigquery --audit-schema audit

Generate Scripts for Specific Domains

starlake extract-script --domain sales,hr --template metadata/extract/ddl/postgres --audit-schema audit

Generate with Delta Column for Incremental

starlake extract-script --template metadata/extract/ddl/synapse --audit-schema audit --delta-column updated_at
