[CT-3138] [Bug] Error: Invalid value for '--warn-error-options'

[dylan-murray]

Is this a new bug in dbt-core?

• I believe this is a new bug in dbt-core
• I have searched the existing issues, and I could not find an existing issue for this bug

Current Behavior

When installing dbt-core into an environment where an older version of click is installed, dbt-core will throw a vague error Error: Invalid value for '--warn-error-options': Cannot load YAML from type <class 'dbt.helper_types.WarnErrorOptions'>. It seems dbt-core is pinning click<9 which allows it to use older versions of click that it seems no longer compatible with. I think dbt-core should be pinning a minimum version requirement of click that plays well with the library.

Expected Behavior

No error.

Steps To Reproduce

Install click==8.0.0
Install the latest dbt-core
Attempt to use the dbt cli w/ a command dbt ls or something

Relevant log output

Error: Invalid value for '--warn-error-options': Cannot load YAML from type <class 'dbt.helper_types.WarnErrorOptions'>

Thanks for raising this @dylan-murray !

Do you happen to know the minimum version of click that works?

[dylan-murray]
