For S3Result.write(), Returns: • `Result`: a new Result instance with the appropriately formatted S3 URI I wasn't able to return the formatted S3 URI, only the S3 Result itself. Any pointers? I'm doing:
Copy code
data = results.write(df, **prefect.context)
print(data)
k
Hey again, do you see any of the logs?
c
Yeah I'm looking in the logs and the only output is the S3 Result in the form of the table i uploaded
k
The result gets written to S3 successfully?
c
yup! just double checked
k
Ah actually can you show me how you’re using the Result in the Flow?
c
Copy code
bucket = "bucket"
location = "location"

MY_RESULTS = S3Result(...)

@task 
def func():
   foo
   bar = MY_RESULTS.write()
   print(bar)

with Flow():
   client_secret = ...
   first_step = ...
   second_step = ...
assume multiple tasks for the different steps
hope that's helpful! sorry wasn't sure how to exactly describe it haha
k
Maybe try it inside the task ? If this doesn’t work I can try it later.
Just making sure, what version of Prefect are you on?
c
0.14.2 i believe
also no, putting it inside the task didn't change anything
thanks for the insight thus far!
a
What if you print 
bar.value
?
Wait no, that would be the value, not the location, sorry.
Ah, but then that makes sense: 
bar.location
might be it

c
hey that worked!
huge! thank you!
k
Thanks! @Amanda Wee
a
You're welcome!
c
It returns literal location, just for anyone who comes across this
In: bar = S3Result(location = foo), after using fizz=bar.write() and then returning fizz.location, you return foo.
a
Yeah, I'm looking at the code, and I think the comment is misleading/outdated. 
write
returns the 
Result
, which overrides 
__repr__
to print type and value, not the full location URI. You can construct the full location URI from the 
bucket
and 
location
attributes, but not directly.

Thanks for the feedback and discussion @Amanda Wee! @Charles Liu!
c
Passing the Result as a whole to the next task; I reconstructed the URI with string concat (s3://{bucket}/{location}) and declaring the Result.location or bucket, thanks @Amanda Wee!
