@Marvin how can I create a k8s workpool on my self-hosted prefect server specifying the kube config file all using the REST API or the Python SDK? I'm using prefect 2.x

Oh, so you want to create a Kubernetes work pool on your own server and customize it all just using code? Fancy! Let's dig in. I'll now look up: 1. Creating k8s work pool in Prefect 2.x. 2. Specifying a kube config with API or Python SDK. Hang tight! 😄 Alright, here's a concise breakdown for creating a Kubernetes work pool with a custom kube config file using the Prefect 2.x Python SDK or REST API on a self-hosted server: 1. Creating the Kubernetes Work Pool: - You can create a work pool using the Prefect Python SDK by initializing a
KubernetesJob
and setting it up accordingly. - You'll need to make sure you have specific Kubernetes configurations set up, like the
kube_config
file. 2. Prefect Documentation Links: - Work Pools: Prefect Work Pools Documentation - Kubernetes Integration: Prefect Kubernetes Guide 3. Using Python SDK:
Copy code
python
   from prefect.infrastructure import KubernetesJob
   from prefect.functions import create_work_pool

   kubernetes_job = KubernetesJob(
       name="my-k8s-work-pool",
       namespace="default",
       job_template_path="path/to/your/job_template.yaml"  # Modify as per your job template
   )

   create_work_pool(
       name="my-k8s-work-pool",
       infrastructure=kubernetes_job,
       kube_config_path="path/to/your/kube_config.yaml"  # Specify your kube config file
   )
4. REST API: You can interact with the Prefect REST API to configure the work pool. Example: POST request to
/work_pools
endpoint with the appropriate data.
Copy code
json
   {
     "name": "my-k8s-work-pool",
     "type": "kubernetes",
     "kubernetes_options": {
       "kubeconfig_path": "path/to/your/kube_config.yaml"
     }
   }
