Hi @Marvin How can flatten out a list of list contain
PrefectFuture
objects, without raising a
TypeError: 'PrefectFuture' object is not iterable
m
To flatten a list of
PrefectFuture
objects, you'll want to ensure you're handling them correctly without trying to iterate over them directly since they aren't inherently iterable. The
PrefectFuture
class provides methods to manage asynchronous task execution, but if you have a list of lists containing these objects, you can flatten them using a simple list comprehension. Here's a basic approach to flatten such a list:
Copy code
python
# Suppose `list_of_lists` is your list of lists containing PrefectFuture objects
flattened_list = [future for sublist in list_of_lists for future in sublist]
This comprehension will iterate over each sublist and then over each
PrefectFuture
object within those sublists, effectively flattening the structure. You can find more about
PrefectFuture
and related utilities in the Prefect source code. If you need to wait for all the futures to complete, you might want to explore methods provided by the
PrefectFuture
class, such as
result()
or
wait()
. If you encounter any issues, feel free to provide more details, and I can assist further.
