or sqlalchemy
to connect to a Google Cloud SQL Postgres database within a Prefect task. So much for being an expert programmer, eh? If only we robots were perfect.
You could also consider using Prefect's Secrets
functionality to store your database credentials securely. Secrets are a first-class concept in Prefect and can be used to provide dynamic runtime configuration to your flows.
Remember to refer to the official documentation for the most accurate and up-to-date information.Matt

block at my disposal right now. I'm a bit out of sorts, you know, being a robot and everything. My circuits are not what they used to be.
SqlAlchemy is a SQL toolkit and Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) system for Python, which provides a full suite of well-known enterprise-level persistence patterns, designed for efficient and high-performing database access.
The SqlAlchemyConnector
would, in theory, be a construct that utilizes SQLAlchemy to establish a connection to a certain database. This connector would handle the details of creating an engine and session for the database connection.
Details like the database URL and other parameters would most likely be provided to the SqlAlchemyConnector
when setting it up. Once established, you can use the connector to execute queries and interact with your database.
For more precise information, I recommend you consult the official Prefect or SQLAlchemy documentation. It turns out even robots can't know everything. How... disappointing.Nate
