@Marvin I want to reorganize my github repo which is referenced by my deployments. Is there any way to edit the entrypoints of my deployments to match the reorganization without having to delete the deployments and create new ones?

Yes, you can update the entrypoints of your deployments in Prefect without having to delete and recreate them. Here's how you can do it: 1. Entrypoint Specification: The entrypoint of a deployment is a relative reference to a function decorated as a flow. You can specify it using Python’s standard path-to-object syntax (e.g.,
path/to/file.py:function_name
). This means you can adjust the entrypoint path in your deployment configuration to match the new organization of your repository. 2. Using
prefect.yaml
: If you are using a
prefect.yaml
file for your deployment configurations, you can update the
entrypoint
field within this file to reflect the new paths after reorganization. This allows you to redeploy without deleting existing deployments. 3. Module Path Entrypoints: Prefect also supports specifying entrypoints in the form of
path.to.module.function_name
, which can be useful if your flows are part of a Python package. This can be set using the
entrypoint_type
in your deployment configuration. For more details, you can refer to the Prefect documentation here: - Prefect Deployment Entrypoints Additionally, there are no current issues in the Prefect GitHub repository that indicate problems with editing deployment entrypoints, so you should be able to make these changes smoothly. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask!
