on a coroutine in Prefect 3.x. The wait_for
method is part of Prefect's task dependency management but is not directly applicable to coroutines.
Here's what you can do:
1. Await the Task Submission: Ensure that you await the submit
method of the task, as it returns a future that you can work with. You should not use wait_for
directly on a coroutine.
2. Use wait_for
Correctly: You should use wait_for
when defining dependencies between tasks, not on the coroutine itself. Instead, you can pass the future from one task to another to enforce dependencies.
Here's an example of how you might refactor your code:
python
from prefect import flow, get_run_logger
@flow(
flow_run_name="remove_environment_" + time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d"),
log_prints=True,
on_failure=[ccl_handling.hook],
)
async def remove_environment(env: str, email_recipients=None):
logger = get_run_logger()
current_time = time.ctime()
<http://logger.info|logger.info>(f"Now running process: {flow_run.name}")
<http://logger.info|logger.info>(f"Current time: {current_time!s}")
<http://logger.info|logger.info>(f"User: {os.getlogin()}")
ports_killed = await kill_ports.with_options(tags=["Environments"]).submit(source=env)
# Ensure you await the task submission and pass the future to the next task
result = await remove_env.with_options(tags=["Environments"]).submit(env=env, wait_for=[ports_killed])
return result
For more information on task dependencies and the correct usage of Prefect's async features, you can refer to the Prefect 3.x documentation.Charles

is a kwarg for submit, not a method on a futureMarvin

parameter. In Prefect 2.x, wait_for
is used to specify upstream dependencies between tasks, not directly on coroutine objects.
Here's how you can refactor your code to correctly use `wait_for`:
1. Use wait_for
in Task Definitions: When defining tasks, you can specify other tasks that must complete before the current task runs by using the wait_for
parameter.
2. Avoid Using wait_for
on Coroutines: Ensure you are not trying to call wait_for
on coroutine objects directly. Instead, use it to set task dependencies.
Here's a refactored version of your code:
python
from prefect import flow, task, get_run_logger
@task
async def kill_ports(source):
# Implementation of kill_ports
pass
@task
async def remove_env(env):
# Implementation of remove_env
pass
@flow(
flow_run_name="remove_environment_" + time.strftime("%Y-%m-%d"),
log_prints=True,
on_failure=[ccl_handling.hook],
)
async def remove_environment(env: str, email_recipients=None):
logger = get_run_logger()
current_time = time.ctime()
<http://logger.info|logger.info>(f"Now running process: {remove_environment.name}")
<http://logger.info|logger.info>(f"Current time: {current_time!s}")
<http://logger.info|logger.info>(f"User: {os.getlogin()}")
ports_killed = await kill_ports.submit(source=env)
# Use wait_for in task definition, not on coroutine
result = await remove_env.submit(env=env, wait_for=[ports_killed])
return result
For more details on task dependencies and the wait_for
parameter, you can check the Prefect 2.x documentation on specifying upstream dependencies.Nate

01/23/2025, 7:50 PMwait_for
parameter in Prefect 2.x to introduce state dependencies between tasks. This allows you to control the execution order of tasks that do not share data dependencies:
python
from prefect import flow, task
@task
def task_a():
return "Task A completed"
@task
def task_b():
return "Task B completed"
@task
def task_c():
return "Task C completed"
@task
def task_d():
return "Task D completed"
@flow
def my_flow():
a = task_a.submit()
b = task_b.submit()
# Task C will wait for Task A and Task B to complete
c = task_c.submit(wait_for=[a, b])
# Task D will wait for Task C to complete
d = task_d.submit(wait_for=[c])
my_flow()
In this example:
- task_c
will only start after both task_a
and task_b
have completed.
- task_d
will start only after task_c
has completed.
This pattern helps enforce execution order without explicitly passing data between the tasks. For more details, you can refer to the Prefect 2.x documentation on task runners.Charles
