This project was working fine before, but now, when trying to run some manifests, I got this error which I hadn't seen before. Based on this, Tom suggested I file a bug:

Deployment 'deployable' not found. Available dpa

I'm happy to run any diagnostic commands or provide more info as needed.

Thanks!

I think the error message could be improved here, but what it's telling you is that it can't find the target "deployment" and that you should use a target of "dpa" (this corresponds to the top level target name you want to use from your deployment config file). Also, the "local" config should likely just be local.yaml rather than the full path (although that may work too).

If you can confirm, I'll update things to give a more informative error here (and likely not traceback, just print the error and exit non-zero).

A nicer error would be good, but in the meanwhile we found out what needed to be done, and yes, we were fumbling the project name. Sorry for the spam!

export PROJECT_NAME=dpa

then manifests run correctly.
