It allows you to manage your data lakes, zones, and assets directly from the [Gemini CLI](https://google-gemini.github.io/gemini-cli/), using natural language prompts.\n\nLearn more about [Gemini CLI Extensions](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/main/docs/extensions/index.md).\n\u003e [!IMPORTANT]\n\u003e **We Want Your Feedback!**\n\u003e Please share your thoughts with us by filling out our feedback [form][form]. \n\u003e Your input is invaluable and helps us improve the project for everyone.\n\n[form]: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfEGmLR46iipyNTgwTmIDJqzkAwDPXxbocpXpUbHXydiN1RTw/viewform?usp=pp_url\u0026entry.157487=dataplex\n\n## Why Use the Dataplex Extension?\n\n* **Natural Language Management:** Stop wrestling with complex commands. Explore schemas and query data by describing what you want in plain English.\n* **Seamless Workflow:** As a Google-developed extension, it integrates seamlessly into the Gemini CLI environment. No need to constantly switch contexts for common database tasks.\n* **Code Generation:** Accelerate development by asking Gemini to generate data classes and other code snippets based on your table schemas.\n\n\n## Prerequisites\n\nBefore you begin, ensure you have the following:\n\n* [Gemini CLI](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli) installed with version **+v0.6.0**.\n* Setup Gemini CLI [Authentication](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file#-authentication-options).\n* A Google Cloud project with the **Dataplex API** enabled.\n* Ensure [Application Default Credentials](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/gcloud) are available in your environment.\n* IAM Permissions:\n  * Dataplex Data Reader (`roles/dataplex.dataReader`): For reading data from the underlying assets (e.g., to run analytics queries).\n  * Service Usage Consumer (`roles/serviceusage.serviceUsageConsumer`)\n\n## Getting Started\n\n### Installation\n\nTo install the extension, use the command:\n\n```bash\ngemini extensions install https://github.com/gemini-cli-extensions/dataplex\n```\n\n### Configuration\n\nSet the following environment variables before starting the Gemini CLI. These variables can be loaded from a `.env` file.\n\n```bash\nexport DATAPLEX_PROJECT=\"\u003cyour-gcp-project-id\u003e\"\n```\n\nEnsure [Application Default Credentials](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/gcloud) are available in your environment.\n\n### Start Gemini CLI\n\nTo start the Gemini CLI, use the following command:\n\n```bash\ngemini\n```\n\n## Usage Examples\n\nInteract with Dataplex using natural language right from your IDE:\n\n* **Explore Catalog and Metadata:**\n  * \"Find all catalog entries related to 'customer orders'.\"\n  * \"Which columns look similar across marketing and sales datasets?\"\n  * \"Show me the description and owner for the 'customer_pii' entry.\"\n\n* **Perform Ad-hoc Analysis:**\n  * \"Calculate the total 'customer orders' this month.\"\n\n## Supported Tools\n\n* `search_entries`: Use this tool to search for entries in Dataplex Catalog based on the provided search query.\n* `lookup_entry`: Use this tool to retrieve a specific entry from Dataplex Catalog.\n* `search_aspect_types`: Use this tool to find aspect types relevant to the query.\n\n## Additional Extensions\n\nFind additional extensions to support your entire software development lifecycle at [github.com/gemini-cli-extensions](https://github.com/gemini-cli-extensions).\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\nUse `gemini --debug` to enable debugging.\n\nCommon issues:\n\n* \"failed to find default credentials: google: could not find default credentials.\": Ensure [Application Default Credentials](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/gcloud) are available in your environment. See [Set up Application Default Credentials](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/external/set-up-adc) for more information.\n* \"✖ Error during discovery for server: MCP error -32000: Connection closed\": The database connection has not been established. Ensure your configuration is set via environment variables.\n* \"✖ MCP ERROR: Error: spawn /Users/USER/.gemini/extensions/dataplex/toolbox ENOENT\": The Toolbox binary did not download correctly. Ensure you are using Gemini CLI v0.6.0+.\n* \"cannot execute binary file\": The Toolbox binary did not download correctly. Ensure the correct binary for your OS/Architecture has been downloaded. See [Installing the server](https://googleapis.github.io/genai-toolbox/getting-started/introduction/#installing-the-server) for more information.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgemini-cli-extensions%2Fdataplex","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fgemini-cli-extensions%2Fdataplex","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgemini-cli-extensions%2Fdataplex/lists"}
