AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'is_type'

when running sqlmesh plan I got this error:

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'is_type'
Error: Failed to resolve macro for expression. Error trying to eval macro.

if I stick a breakpoint in I find:

sqlmesh/utils/__init__.py(330)type_is_known()
-> raise
(Pdb++) l
325  	    try:
326  	        if d_type.is_type(exp.DataType.Type.UNKNOWN, exp.DataType.Type.NULL):
327  	            return False
328  	    except:
329  	        breakpoint()
330  ->	        raise
331  	    if d_type.expressions:
332  	        return all(type_is_known(expression) for expression in d_type.expressions)
333  	    return True
334
335
(Pdb++) d_type
'UNKNOWN'

the offending code in my model file is here:

select
    @STAR(order_dedup)
from order_dedup
where
    snowflake_last_ingested_at between @start_ts and @end_ts

where order_dedup is a View model, perhaps that is the problem (?)

However if I amend the error handling code to:

        if d_type == 'UNKNOWN' or d_type.is_type(exp.DataType.Type.UNKNOWN, exp.DataType.Type.NULL):
            return False

then the plan succeeds and I get the option to apply it

Hey @anentropic, thanks for the report. Can you share the full stack trace? How do you reach sqlmesh/utils/__init__.py(330)type_is_known()?

[georgesittas]

Nvm, I think I see the issue. Will fix shortly.
