@Marvin I want to integrate an install requirements step into my prefect deployment using the method pip_install_requirements that you can find here https://docs.prefect.io/latest/api-ref/prefect/deployments/steps/utility/ training_deployment = flow.from_source( source=GitRepository( url="source", credentials={"access_token": gitlab_token} ), entrypoint="flows/train-and-deploy.py:train_and_deploy", ).deploy( name=f"training_deployment", work_pool_name=f"avm_workpool", tags=["AVM", "training"], ) where should I add the method?

You can integrate the

pip_install_requirements

method into your Prefect deployment as a step following your Git repository cloning step. Here’s how you can adjust your provided code:

python
from prefect.deployments.steps import pip_install_requirements

training_deployment = flow.from_source(
    source=GitRepository(
        url="source",
        credentials={"access_token": gitlab_token}
    ),
    entrypoint="flows/train-and-deploy.py:train_and_deploy",
).deploy(
    name="training_deployment",
    work_pool_name="avm_workpool",
    tags=["AVM", "training"],
    pull=[
        {
            "prefect.deployments.steps.git_clone": {
                "id": "clone-step",
                "repository": "source",
            }
        },
        {
            "prefect.deployments.steps.pip_install_requirements": {
                "directory": "{{ clone-step.directory }}",
                "requirements_file": "requirements.txt"
            }
        }
    ]
)

This example assumes that your

requirements.txt

file is located at the root of your cloned repository directory. For more detailed information, refer to the documentation.

is there a way to do it without using the pull steps but using the python function from the SDK?
