Providers

Fluid Forge uses one contract format across local and provider-backed execution targets.

Docs baseline

  • CLI release covered by the primary docs: 0.7.9
  • Current scaffolded contract examples: fluidVersion: 0.7.2

Some deep-dive provider pages still preserve older 0.7.1 snippets for backward-compatibility context. Those examples should not be read as “current version” guidance.

Provider overview

ProviderPlan / ApplyScheduling docs stanceStatus
GCPYesPrefer fluid generate scheduleProduction
AWSYesPrefer fluid generate scheduleProduction
SnowflakeYesPrefer fluid generate scheduleProduction
LocalYesLocal-first onboardingProduction

Compatibility note: fluid generate-airflow still exists, but the primary docs path is fluid generate schedule --scheduler airflow.

Quick start by provider

GCP

gcloud auth application-default login
gcloud config set project YOUR_PROJECT_ID
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --provider gcp --yes

AWS

aws configure
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --provider aws --yes

Snowflake

export SNOWFLAKE_ACCOUNT=your_account
export SNOWFLAKE_USER=your_user
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --provider snowflake --yes

Local

fluid init my-project --quickstart
cd my-project
fluid apply contract.fluid.yaml --yes

Standards and catalogs

Beyond the apply-capable providers above, Fluid Forge can export contracts to public data-product standards and publish them to catalogs. Both surfaces live inside existing CLI commands rather than as separate provider pages.

Export formats — fluid generate standard

FormatWhat it isReference
OPDSOpen Data Product Specification JSON v1.0generate standard
ODCSOpen Data Contract Standard v3.1.0 (Bitol.io)generate standard
ODPSOpen Data Product Standard — Bitol variant, input-port lineagegenerate standard
ODPS-BitolODPS in strict-conformance modegenerate standard

Shortcut: fluid export-opds contract.fluid.yaml — equivalent to fluid generate standard --format opds.

Publishing — fluid publish

FLUID Command Centerfluid publish

Notes

  • Use provider-specific guides when you need deep target details.
  • Use CLI Reference for command syntax.
  • Use Getting Started for the local-first workflow.
