Prefect Community

Hmm, maybe someone in here can help me since we are using Prefect Cloud currently.

Say I have 1000 flows that all share the same lib module that gets uploaded to our S3 storage block during the normal prefect deployment build/apply step.

Do I need to re-deploy every flow whenever the shared module changes (so we can track the versions)?

Is there a cleaner, prefect approved way to do this?:

in that case I'd probably want to publish the lib as a private package that can be specified as a dependency of any flow that should use it, then you just have to publish new versions of the package and the deployed flows will just install it

many ways to go about it, but here's an <https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/how-to-create-a-private-python-package-repository/|example> tutorial

or if its public you could just do something like
```❯ pip install git+<https://github.com/PrefectHQ/marvin.git@my-branch>```
