Question

What s the recommended way to autodetect flows Let s say I have a bunch of flows in a `flows` module would it still be to build a deployment for each of them

Zanie · Answer

Perhaps just `isinstance obj Flow ` and iterate over all the items in the module

Oh I also found this discussion <https github com PrefectHQ prefect discussions 4042 sort=top> but it seems like some things are already outdated like `prefect register` command

Zanie · Answer

Yeah that s for v1

kasteph · Answer

Ah ok

Zanie · Answer

There s also this slightly terrifying utility

Zanie · Answer

```import prefect import prefect context prefect flow def test pass print prefect context GLOBAL OBJECT REGISTRY get instances prefect Flow ```

Zanie · Answer

We capture all `Flow` objects that are defined

kasteph · Answer

If I create flow deployments instead <https docs prefect io tutorials deployments deployment creation with python|using Python> would this be registered by running `python my deployment py`

Zanie · Answer

Yes that s the idea there

kasteph · Answer
