Table level settings not passed to ClickHouse

Hi! I’m stuck trying to define a table engine setting through the model config. According to the README.md it should be possible by defining the settings property with a dictionary, but I’m struggling on this one.

My model config looks something like this:

{{ config(order_by='(Geography_Code,)', materialization='table', engine="MergeTree()", settings='({"allow_nullable_key":1})') }}

The source is a table in a MySQL database. But I’m just getting the error:

DB::Exception: Sorting key contains nullable columns, but merge tree setting allow_nullable_key is disabled.

What am I missing?

This was indeed broken. It should be fixed in dbt-clickhouse 1.1.8.

The syntax for settings looks like this, btw:

 {{ config(order_by='(some_date, id, name)', engine='MergeTree()', materialized='table',
                     settings={'allow_nullable_key': 1}) }}

What you have above had some extra quotes/symbols.
