Databricks Bundles - How to select which jobs resources to deploy per target?

[Adrianj]

Hello, 

My team and I are experimenting with bundles, we follow the pattern of having one main file Databricks.yml and each job definition specified in a separate yaml for modularization. 

We wonder if it is possible to select from the main Databricks.yml which jobs resources are deploy per target. In specific, we have a job called test_<name of the application>, which contain all the unit testing and integration testing. Ideally, this test job would only be deploy in development alongside the rest of the resources, while in production the test job would be excluded. 

Below an example of the Databricks.yml. 

# yaml-language-server: $schema=..\..\bundle_config_schema.json
bundle:
  name: app_name

include:
  - resources/*.yml
  - tests/test_job.yml

targets:
  dev:
#  We know this is not possible but ideally something like this would be brilliant
#      include:
#        - resources/*.yml
#        - tests/test_job.yml
    default: true
    variables:
      slack_web_hoook: 111111111222222222222222
      catalog: catalog_name
      storage_account_name: storege_account_name
    mode: development
    workspace:
      host: https://adb-******.azuredatabricks.net

  prod:
# We know this is not possible but something like this would be brilliant
#     exclude:
#       - "tests/*"
    variables: 
      slack_web_hoook: 1111112222333344444
      catalog: _catalog_name
      storage_account_name: storage_account_name
    mode: production
    workspace:
      host: https://adb-***************.azuredatabricks.net
      root_path: /Shared/.bundle/prod/${bundle.name}
    run_as:
     user_name: user.user@email

Is there any alternative better than defining the whole job resource within this file?

Would you be able to share how to use the variable in the include? I can't seem to work it out

Again, this is not what I would recommend, and it's temporary, but this is how it looks like in databricks.yml :

include:
  - ./$asset_folder/*.yml

And in the training section of my cicd pipeline :

- script: |
    sed -i 's/\$asset_folder/resources_training/g' databricks.yml
  workingDirectory: $(workingDirectory)
  displayName: Define assets to be included in the bundle
