Question

Can someone help with a simple example of the new prefect deploy on docker the docs don t have an example and its very difficult to pull together which configurations are needed among work pool config which can include image tag the prefect yaml file `prefect docker projects steps build docker image` etc I am able to successfully deploy the toy `log flow py` flow on local process no problem Docker desktop is installed the image is available locally as well as from dockerhub `prefecthq prefect 2 10 13 python3 11` The deployment doesn t need to build the image just run the container

Christopher Boyd · Answer

If you don t need to build the image you should not need anythign in the build step and assuming the code is stored in the image itself the push step either

Christopher Boyd · Answer

If the code is indeed local to the image then you d just need to configure the work pool in teh UI and the entrypoint + path because it s local storage in the container you don t need to `pull` it in

Christopher Boyd · Answer

In other words build push and pull can be null just specifying the work pool config for the docker worker + the entrypoint into the container the filesystem path + flow where it exists in container

Thank you that helps with my understanding of work pool configuration Could I suggest this isn t clear from the docs Its probably likely that many users have an established process for building and managing images and would only want to pull the image from a private registry Probably the main use case is 1 pull an image from container registry 2 pull the flow code from s3 storage or github storage 3 run the flow code in the container environment
