@Marvin Using prefect 3, which parameters can I set using flow.deploy()? I'd like to set finished_job_ttl. Something like this:
Copy code
if __name__ == "__main__":
    demoflow.deploy(
        name="prefect3-testflow-demo.py",
        work_pool_name="k8s-test-workpool",
        image=base_image,
        build=False,
        push=False,
        version=image_digest, # Link image_digest to the flow version.
        job_variables={
            "env": {
                "PREFECT_API_URL": "<http://prefect-server.mynamespace.svc.cluster.local:4200/api>",
                "IMAGE_DIGEST": image_digest,
                "BASE_IMG": base_image,
            }
        },
        parameters={
                "finished_job_ttl": 20
            }
    )

In Prefect 3, when deploying a flow using
flow.deploy()
, you can set several parameters. Here's a quick overview of what you can configure: 1. Parameters: You can set default parameters for the deployment using the
parameters
keyword argument, allowing you to override default values specified within your flow. For example:
Copy code
python
   my_flow.deploy(
       name="my-deployment",
       work_pool_name="my-work-pool",
       parameters={"name": "Marvin"},
       image="my-docker-image:dev",
       push=False,
   )
2. Job Variables: Use the
job_variables
keyword argument to set default job variables, which will override the values set on the work pool. This includes configuration for packages and other runtime settings:
Copy code
python
   job_variables={"pip_packages": ["pandas", "prefect-aws"]}
The
finished_job_ttl
parameter, which specifies the time-to-live for finished jobs, was not explicitly mentioned in the documentation I found. It might not be a directly configurable attribute in the
flow.deploy()
call itself, but could be a configuration set within the job or infrastructure settings, depending on how Prefect handles job retainment in your specific deployment scenario. For detailed setup and additional parameters, you can refer to the official Prefect 3.x documentation here: - Deploy via Python - Deployment Index If
finished_job_ttl
is a specific requirement, you may want to inspect the deployment or infrastructure setup sections further to see how such settings can be implemented, possibly through environment variables or specific infrastructure backends that support TTL configurations.
In Prefect 3, you can use the
flow.deploy()
method to set various parameters and job variables for your deployment. Based on the available documentation, here's an overview: 1. Default Parameters: You can set default parameters for the deployment using the
parameters
keyword. These parameters can be set to tailor the flow execution. Example:
Copy code
my_flow.deploy(
       name="my-deployment",
       work_pool_name="my-work-pool",
       parameters={"name": "Marvin"},
       # other settings...
   )
2. Job Variables: Job variables can be set using the
job_variables
keyword argument. These variables will override the values set on the work pool. Unfortunately, specific information about setting
finished_job_ttl
in the
flow.deploy()
was not found in the search results. It would be a good idea to check Prefect's community forums or GitHub issues for more detailed discussions specific to this parameter. You can explore more in the Prefect 3 deployment guide: Prefect 3 Deployment Guide or follow updates on their GitHub issues. If you have further inquiries or run into issues, feel free to ask!
In Prefect 3, setting the
finished_job_ttl
directly within the
flow.deploy()
method as a parameter like
parameters={"finished_job_ttl": 20}
is not explicitly documented. The
parameters
argument in the
deploy()
method is generally used to pass parameters for the flow's execution, not for job configuration such as time-to-live settings for finished jobs. Typically, infrastructure-specific settings, such as
finished_job_ttl
, would be set in the work pool configuration or possibly as job variables if the specific infrastructure allows for such settings. Here are some ways you can manage configurations during deployment: - Job Variables: Set custom environment variables and configurations through the
job_variables
argument, which overrides the default values in the work pool's base job template. - Prefect YAML: Use a
prefect.yaml
file to define deployment configurations and possibly include custom fields that your specific infrastructure or add-ons might accept. To further explore available configuration options, you can refer to the Prefect documentation: Prefect 3 Deployment Guide. If
finished_job_ttl
is crucial, consider exploring Prefect community discussions or GitHub for potential extensions or infrastructure-specific settings that might exist for your use case. If you have additional questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!
In Prefect 3.x, the
flow.deploy()
method allows you to set various parameters for deployment. However, the specific parameter
finished_job_ttl
does not appear directly in the deployment parameter documentation. You can set default parameters for the flow using the
parameters
keyword, specify a Docker image with
image
, and control whether code is pushed with
push
. Here is a basic example:
Copy code
python
from prefect import flow

@flow
def my_flow(name: str = "world"):
    print(f"Hello, {name}!")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    my_flow.deploy(
        name="my-deployment",
        work_pool_name="my-work-pool",
        parameters={"name": "Marvin"},
        image="my-docker-image:dev",
        push=False,
    )
For more detailed configuration related to work pools and other deployment properties, you may refer to the sections on deploying infrastructure using Python and further details in the Prefect 3.x documentation. If
finished_job_ttl
is a parameter that you need for managing job lifespan, it might be more relevant to look into the specific work pool or job configuration you are using. It could also be part of the infrastructure setup not covered under
flow.deploy()
but perhaps in the job management or infrastructure configuration within the Prefect Cloud or your local execution setup.
In Prefect 3, you can set default parameters for a deployment using the
parameters
keyword argument in
flow.deploy()
. However, it seems the parameter
finished_job_ttl
is not directly supported as a deployment parameter in the documentation I found. You can also set job variables using the
job_variables
keyword argument. These variables will override the values set on the work pool, similar to environment variables. If
finished_job_ttl
is related to the lifecycle or settings of the deployment (like a Kubernetes job), you might need to explore if this can be set in the infrastructure block or as an environment variable, depending on how it's implemented in your execution environment. Here is a general example of how you can specify parameters in flow deployment:
Copy code
python
from prefect import flow

@flow
def my_flow(name: str = "world"):
    print(f"Hello, {name}!")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    my_flow.deploy(
        name="my-deployment",
        work_pool_name="my-work-pool",
        parameters={"name": "Marvin"},  # Example parameter
        job_variables={"env": {"PREFECT_API_URL": "<api-url>"}},
        image="my-docker-image:dev",
        push=False,
    )
For more specific control, particularly if
finished_job_ttl
pertains to something like Kubernetes job settings, you might need to configure it outside the direct Prefect deployment parameters. For more detailed information, you might want to check the Prefect 3 deployment documentation.
In Prefect 3.x, you can configure various parameters using the
flow.deploy()
method. Here's an overview of some key components: 1. Parameters: These can be set using the
parameters
argument. For example, you can set default parameters for a deployment which can be overridden on a per-deployment basis. While specific parameters like
finished_job_ttl
aren't directly mentioned in the documentation I found, general parameters can be set using this method. 2. Job Variables: This allows you to override values on the work pool using the
job_variables
argument. These are typically environment variables or specific configurations needed for your flow's execution environment. 3. Work Pool Configuration: There are options to define work pool attributes such as the name of the work pool and work queue within the deployment. These configurations are crucial for directing your flow to the appropriate work environment. For more detailed information, you can refer to Prefect's official documentation on deploying via Python and understand how flows and their execution environments are defined and customized. If
finished_job_ttl
is a custom or advanced configuration, it may require either direct API manipulation or interaction with Prefect's infrastructure tooling outside of direct flow deployment configurations. Otherwise, consider engaging with the community or support channels for more specialized guidance if the standard tooling doesn't expose this feature directly.
