Add databricks quickstart command - #5464
Merged
Merged
Conversation
Introduce a top-level `databricks quickstart` command that prints a short introduction to the CLI: authentication, profile selection, building with Databricks Asset Bundles, and where to go next. It prints a human-friendly guide by default and a denser, agent-oriented version when run in a non-interactive terminal (for example, when invoked by a coding agent). The detection uses cmdio.IsPromptSupported and is intentionally simple for now, leaving room for smarter agent detection later. Co-authored-by: Isaac

On Windows the embedded quickstart markdown was checked out with CRLF, so stripFrontmatter (which matches an LF fence "---\n") left the skill frontmatter in the output. That broke the unit test and the acceptance golden on Windows only. Add a .gitattributes forcing eol=lf for these go:embed files so the embedded content is identical on every platform, matching the existing convention in acceptance/ and integration/. Also switch stripFrontmatter from strings.Index to strings.Cut to fix the failing modernize lint check. Co-authored-by: Isaac Signed-off-by: simonfaltum <simon.faltum@databricks.com>

## Release v1.3.0 ### Notable Changes * The `direct` deployment engine is now Generally Available and the default for new deployments. To opt out, set `engine: terraform` under `bundle` in your `databricks.yml` or set `DATABRICKS_BUNDLE_ENGINE=terraform`. Existing deployments keep their current engine; see https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/dev-tools/bundles/direct to migrate. ### CLI * Added the `databricks quickstart` command, a short introduction to the CLI that prints a human-friendly guide interactively and an agent-oriented version when run non-interactively ([#5464](#5464)). * Add `databricks version --check` to report whether a newer CLI version is available and print the upgrade command for the detected install method ([#5469](#5469)). * `databricks auth describe` now verifies credentials against both the workspace and account endpoints before reporting a failure, fixing false "Unable to authenticate" errors for account console profiles ([#5479](#5479)). * `databricks auth login` no longer prompts for workspace selection when logging in to an account console host (`https://accounts.*`). Pass `--workspace-id` explicitly to store a workspace ID on such a profile ([#5504](#5504)). * `databricks auth profiles --skip-validate` no longer makes any network calls; the host metadata fetch is skipped along with validation ([#5530](#5530)). ### Bundles * Set the default `data_security_mode` to `DATA_SECURITY_MODE_AUTO` in bundle templates ([#5452](#5452)). * Mark vector search index index_subtype as backend_default to prevent drift after deployment ([#5454](#5454)). * `bundle deployment migrate`: handle resources added to or removed from `databricks.yml` since the last Terraform deploy ([#5463](#5463)). * Add the `genie_spaces` bundle resource for managing Databricks Genie spaces as code, plus `bundle generate genie-space` to import an existing space. Direct deployment engine only ([#5282](#5282)). * Fix spurious recreate of schemas and volumes whose names use mixed case ([#5531](#5531)).

Make explicit that raw `(#5464)` refs must be expanded at PR time (`task fmt` / `task links`, enforced by CI) — the release renders fragments verbatim and does not expand links, so a raw ref left in a fragment fails CI rather than being handled later. Co-authored-by: Isaac

Why
Someone running the Databricks CLI for the first time has no built-in starting point. They have to go find docs, work out auth and profiles, and guess at how to actually build something.
databricks quickstartgives them a short, opinionated introduction right in the terminal.It serves coding agents too: an agent with no Databricks skill loaded can run
databricks quickstartto orient itself (auth, profiles, building with Asset Bundles) before attempting work.Changes
Before: there was no
