Custom/non-standard dbt adapters (e.g. AWS Athena)

See original GitHub issue

Our project uses the custom Athena dbt adapter so instead of pip install dbt we pip install via git+https://github.com/Tomme/dbt-athena.git. Is this supported?

Hey @aaronsteers we now have explicit support for various warehouses but that doesn’t include Athena! Making a separate issue.

Hey @aaronsteers - thanks for opening the issue

We should be able to get this setup, how are you running Lightdash? Are you using the docker image?

@ZeRego I’m wondering if we should have some documentation on how to extend the base docker container with a custom dbt adapter. It seems a few people are wanting to try it out. The alternative would be to add native support for custom dbt adapters (at least the most common adapters).
