Missing env variable (specified in profiles.yaml) running sqlfluff on pre-commit with dbt

I am using dbt and we set up pre-commit to lint our models before opening a PR.

After the update of dbt (1.4.5 to 1.5.0) and sqlfluff (2.0.2 to 2.1.0), we are no longer able to run pre-commit because we specify environment variables in our profiles.yaml that are not available locally since we use a Docker container to run our models:

# profiles.yml
jaffle_shop:
  target: dev
  outputs:
    dev:
      type: snowflake
      account: fake-snowflake-account
      user: nicolas
      password: '{{ env_var(''USER_PASSWORD'') }}'
      db: jaffle_shop
      schema: dbt_nicolas
      threads: 4

# .pre-commit-config.yml
- repo: https://github.com/sqlfluff/sqlfluff
  rev: 2.1.0
  hooks:
    - id: sqlfluff-fix
      additional_dependencies: ['dbt-snowflake==1.5.0', 'sqlfluff-templater-dbt==2.1.0']

The error message:

I tried to edit the entry of the sqlfluff hook: entry: bash sqlfluff-fix.sh with:

# sqlfluff-fix.sh
export $(grep -v '^#' my.env | xargs -0)
sqlfluff fix --force --show-lint-violations --processes 0

Like here and it's working but it runs sqlfluff on the entire project, do you have an idea how to fix this?

Thanks a lot, Nicolas

sqlfluff released a fix (2.1.1) that removes the need to specify a profiles_dir in the configuration file. Updating sqlfluff solved the problem.
