: This command helps to run shell commands on a schedule by creating a Prefect deployment. It's useful for tasks like fetching data or running scripts on a regular interval.
Example for setting up a daily weather report for Chicago at 9 AM:
bash
prefect shell serve "curl <http://wttr.in/Chicago?format=3>" --flow-name "Daily Chicago Weather Report" --cron-schedule "0 9 * * *" --deployment-name "Chicago Weather"
This schedules the fetching of Chicago's weather condition daily at 9 AM and tracks the execution results within the Prefect framework.
### Benefits
1. Immediate Feedback: Executes shell commands within Prefect framework for instant results.
2. Integration: Easily integrate external scripts or data fetching into your data workflows.
3. Visibility and Logging: Leverage Prefect's logging to track the execution and output of your shell tasks.
4. Automated Scheduling: Schedule shell commands to run at specified times.
