flag when running Docker through Prefect. However, based on general knowledge about Docker and Prefect, there are a couple of potential ways you might achieve this.
1. DockerRun Task Customization:
The DockerRun task could potentially be extended or customized to allow passing additional flags like --gpus all
. This would involve subclassing the existing DockerRun task and modifying the container creation logic to add additional flags.
2. Kubernetes Deployment:
If you're running Prefect on Kubernetes, you could specify node selectors and tolerations to ensure that your flow runs on a Kubernetes node with GPU resources available. Kubernetes supports scheduling of containers requiring GPU resources if you've set up your cluster with GPUs.
3. DaskTaskRunner Resources:
Prefect allows you to specify resources for tasks using DaskTaskRunner
, as indicated in the retrieved excerpt. Using Dask's resources, annotations may offer a way to manage GPU allocation on a per-task basis, although this is not the same as the Docker --gpus all
flag.
A reliable way to solve this would involve customizing the Docker execution environment or interacting directly with the Docker API. However, without native support or a more detailed example in the Prefect documentation or community contributions, it might require a bespoke solution.
For now, I recommend reaching out to the Prefect community or checking Prefect's GitHub issues for more advice. If Prefect has introduced a plugin or updated their DockerRun task since my last update, someone in the community or a recent GitHub issue may have more information.
