Data Contract CLI Files

[1.1.1] - 2026-08-14

Added

• SQL quality rules support the ${dataset}, ${project}, ${catalog}, and ${database} placeholders for the server's values
• datacontract test --metadata-only runs only checks that read the schema (field presence and types) and reports checks that read row values as skipped
• datacontract test --checks accepts the ODCS terms properties and slaProperties, keeping schema and servicelevel as legacy aliases
• Released Docker images are signed with cosign keyless signing, on Docker Hub and the Amazon ECR Public mirror; see Installation for how to verify them
• datacontract import pydantic-model creates a data contract from Pydantic models

Changed

• datacontract export excel uses the ODCS Excel template bundled with the CLI instead of downloading it, so the export works offline; use --template for a custom template
• The OpenAPI document of datacontract api reports the CLI version, describes every endpoint, parameter, and response model, and names its operations testDataContract, lintDataContract, exportDataContract, and changelogBetweenDataContracts
• DATACONTRACT_CLI_API_KEY now also protects POST /lint and POST /export, which previously answered without an API key
• Test results name the check fields qualityId and failedSamples instead of quality_id and failed_samples; the old names are deprecated, but still accepted as input and still written next to the new ones
• datacontract import unity no longer writes the databricksType custom property, which duplicated physicalType
• datacontract export sql --server databricks keeps the declared length of varchar(n) and char(n) instead of exporting STRING

Fixed

• datacontract test for API servers with delimiter: array no longer fails JSON schema validation with data must be object (#1495)
• POST /export answers 422 instead of 500 when the posted data contract cannot be parsed
• datacontract test for Databricks no longer fails all checks of a model with a GEOGRAPHY or GEOMETRY column (#1483)
• datacontract export pydantic-model no longer emits an unparseable empty class for an object property without properties
