@Marvin What is the Prefect Terraform resource definition for a
sqlalchemy-connector
Block?
m
It appears there is no direct Prefect Terraform resource definition readily available for a
sqlalchemy-connector
Block. You can create and manage Prefect blocks in Python directly using
prefect_sqlalchemy.SqlAlchemyConnector
. An example of using this in a workflow is below. You may need to adapt this according to your Terraform workflow configurations:
Copy code
python
from prefect import flow, task
from prefect_sqlalchemy import SqlAlchemyConnector

@task
def setup_table(block_name: str) -> None:
    with SqlAlchemyConnector.load(block_name) as connector:
        connector.execute(
            "CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS customers (name varchar, address varchar);"
        )
        connector.execute(
            "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (:name, :address);",
            parameters={"name": "Marvin", "address": "Highway 42"},
        )
        connector.execute_many(
            "INSERT INTO customers (name, address) VALUES (:name, :address);",
            seq_of_parameters=[
                {"name": "Ford", "address": "Highway 42"},
                {"name": "Unknown", "address": "Highway 42"},
            ],
        )

@flow
def my_workflow():
    setup_table("BLOCK_NAME")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    my_workflow()
For more detailed information, you can reference the Prefect documentation here. For up-to-date versions of Prefect, consider turning to Prefect Slack Community or the official Prefect Discourse for community support and Terraform-specific custom implementations.
