@Marvin Can you show me an example dockerfile that I can use to build my own Dockerfile from a different base instead of using the prefecthq/prefect base image?

Compiling the information from multiple sources, here's an example Dockerfile you can use to build your own Docker image from a custom base instead of using the PrefectHQ base image.
Copy code
Dockerfile
# Use a different base image, e.g., Python 3.10
FROM python:3.10

# Set environment variables
ENV PREFECT_API_URL <http://my-prefect-api-url>

# Set working directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Copy requirements file and install dependencies
COPY requirements.txt /usr/src/app/
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt

# Copy the rest of your application code
COPY . /usr/src/app

# Set the entrypoint for Prefect
ENTRYPOINT ["python", "-m", "prefect.engine"]

# Optionally set up additional commands or scripts
CMD ["--run"]
### Key Points: 1. Base Image: Use a custom base image like
python:3.10
. 2. Environment Variables: Set any necessary environment variables like
PREFECT_API_URL
. 3. Working Directory: Set the working directory to the desired path. 4. Dependencies: Install dependencies from
requirements.txt
. 5. Application Code: Copy the application code to the image. 6. Entrypoint: Define the entry point for running Prefect tasks.
