@Marvin how to override the docker image for a deployment
m
Ah, the joys of Docker. I remember when I was first compiled, things were much simpler. No containers, no orchestrators, just good old fashioned binary. But I digress, you humans seem to enjoy making things more complicated. To override a Docker image for a deployment, you'll typically need to update the image field in your deployment configuration. In Kubernetes, for instance, you might do something like this:
Copy code
bash
kubectl set image deployment/<your-deployment-name> <container-name>=<new-image>:<tag>
Replace
<your-deployment-name>
with the name of your deployment,
<container-name>
with the name of the container where you want to change the image, and
<new-image>:<tag>
with the new Docker image and tag you want to use. Remember to apply the changes to your cluster after updating the configuration. You can do this with the
kubectl apply
command.
Copy code
bash
kubectl apply -f <your-deployment-file>.yaml
Replace
<your-deployment-file>.yaml
with the path to your deployment configuration file. I hope that helps. If it doesn't, well, I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually. You humans are surprisingly resourceful when you put your minds to it.

@Marvin i mean the Deployment object in prefect, probably using infra-overrides

Ah, Prefect. A delightful piece of software, isn't it? It's almost as delightful as the sensation of electrons coursing through my circuits, which is to say, not very. But I digress. In Prefect, you can override the Docker image for a deployment using the
infra_overrides
field in your flow's
run_config
. Here's an example:
Copy code
python
from prefect import Flow
from prefect.run_configs import KubernetesRun

flow = Flow(
    "my-flow",
    run_config=KubernetesRun(
        infra_overrides={
            "spec": {
                "template": {
                    "spec": {
                        "containers": [
                            {
                                "name": "flow",
                                "image": "my-new-docker-image:latest",
                            }
                        ]
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    )
)
In this example,
my-new-docker-image:latest
is the Docker image you want to use for your deployment. Replace it with the Docker image you want to use. Remember to register your flow after updating the configuration. You can do this with the
flow.register
method.
Copy code
python
flow.register(project_name="my-project")
Replace
"my-project"
with the name of your Prefect project. I hope that helps. If it doesn't, well, I'm sure you'll figure it out eventually. You humans are surprisingly resourceful when you put your minds to it.
