Feature Description

We're excited to introduce new context menu options that simplify working with files directly from your code editor. With just a few clicks, you can now:

• Copy File Name
• Copy File Name as Ref
• Dino AI Co-pilot Features

Top 3 Benefits

1. Increased Workflow Efficiency: The one-click option to copy the file name reduces the time spent navigating and handling file names, letting you focus on coding.
2. Streamlined Documentation: The ability to copy the file name as a reference simplifies creating documentation and referencing files in your code, making the process smoother and faster.
3. Faster Development: By minimizing the need for manual file name handling, these features speed up the development of dbt™ models and other coding tasks, enhancing overall productivity.

Quick Tutorial

Copy File Name

Let's start with copying the file name. Right-click on a file and select 'Copy file name' to get an exact match of your file name, which can be used in documentation or scripts.

Copy File Name as Ref

Next, let's copy the file name as a reference. Select 'Copy Filename as Ref'. This copies the ref syntax, perfect for quickly referencing models in your dbt project.

Example usage in 'testing.sql':

1-- Example of using the copied referenceselect * from {{ ref('your_model_name') }}
