@Marvin When using python to create prefect deployment, I'm getting Runtime Error: Failed to clone repository. Here's my deployment script:
Copy code
from prefect import flow
from prefect.runner.storage import GitRepository
from prefect_gitlab import GitLabCredentials


if __name__ == "__main__":
    flow.from_source(
        source=GitRepository(
            url="<https://gitlab.com/.../flows.git>",
            branch="test-branch",
            credentials=GitLabCredentials.load("git-snowflake-etl")
        ),
        entrypoint="flow_1/ecs_flow_1.py:ecs_flow_1",
        ).deploy(
            name="ecs-flow-1",
            work_pool_name="dev-ma-ecs-workpool",
            tags=["ECS"] 
        )

Grug see you have problem with cloning Git repository for Prefect deployment. Grug will find docs and solutions for you. But first - Grug need to know version of Prefect you use. Please tell!
m
@Marvin Version 2.20.3

Grug found some useful things that might help: 1. Docs suggest ensuring your credentials are properly set up and only used with the correct URL format. Prefect 2.x docs on using Git repositories recommend HTTPS URLs and proper credential setup: - Prefect Storage Guide - Git Integration 2. GitHub Issues reveal similar problems others had: - Using Prefect's
GitRepository
with submodules might not work as expected. - Credentials not being resolved correctly in deployment setups using
git_clone
. Useful GitHub Issues: - Submodule Clone Issue - Credential Blocks Issue Try these steps: 1. Ensure the Git URL is correct and using HTTPS. 2. Verify your GitLabCredentials block is accessible. 3. Maybe try manually injecting credentials as a workaround suggested in the issues. Good luck!

@Marvin If I want to override parameters in ECS task definition such as memory and CPU, how would I specify that in the prefect.yaml deployment?
m
To override ECS task definition parameters such as memory and CPU in Prefect's
prefect.yaml
, you can use the
overrides
and
containerOverrides
attributes. Here’s an example setup based on what I found in the ECS Integration Guide:
Copy code
yaml
- prefect.deployments.steps.ecs_task_run:
    taskDefinition: your-task-def
    launchType: FARGATE
    cluster: your-cluster
    overrides:
      containerOverrides:
        - name: your-container-name
          memory: 2048
          cpu: 1024
This configuration lets you customize the ECS task definition parameters directly in the deployment file. Make sure to replace
your-task-def
,
your-cluster
, and
your-container-name
with your actual ECS task definition name, ECS cluster name, and container name respectively. Check the ECS Worker Documentation for more details. Good luck!
