Kedro catalog resolve cannot handle non-default environment

[dfossl]

Description

kedro catalog resolve provides an optional parameter to set environment. However, it assumes that the provided environment will have a "credentials" pattern. But, by default the "credentials" pattern is only found in the "local" environment.

Context

In current state kedro catalog resolve cli command cannot handle environments that aren't local OR do not have a dummy credentials in them. The expectation is that if provided an environment that the resolved data catalog entries should be provided for that environment.

Steps to Reproduce

1. create default example kedro project
2. kedro catalog resolve -e base

Expected Result

Command should run successfully and return resolved data catalog.

Actual Result

MissingConfigException: No files of YAML or JSON format found in C:\Users\username\Projects\error_example\conf\base or C:\Users\username\Projects\error_example\conf\base matching the glob
pattern(s): ['credentials*', 'credentials*/**', '**/credentials*']

Comments

This appears to be from unexpected behavior from the command context.config_loader.get("credentials", None) located at line 245 in kedro/framework/cli/catalog.py (see below).

I assume the expected behavior here would be to return None. This is likely also expected behavior from the try-except at line 36 of kedro/config/abstract_config.py (see below).

It appears though that the exception raised is a MissingConfigException and therefore isn't catched. kedro/config/omegaconf_config.py:251 (see below).

Your Environment

Hi @dfossl, thanks for reporting this issue. It seems to have been a problem in Kedro 0.19.8. I've tried to reproduce your issue with the latest release and the command runs without issues. Can you try updating to Kedro 0.19.10?
