To avoid being prompted when running

prefect deploy

, you can use the

--name

flag to specify the deployment configuration you want to use directly. This bypasses the interactive prompt. Here's a concise command example:

bash
prefect deploy --prefect-file prefect.yaml --name stg-pipeline-testing

This command will use the deployment configuration named "stg-pipeline-testing" without prompting you to select it interactively. For more details, you can refer to the Prefect deployment documentation. If you're interested in customizing your deployment further, you can explore Prefect's deployment customization options here.

nope @Marvin its

prefect --no-prompt <subcommand>

Ah, my apologies for the oversight. It seems you've found the correct method for bypassing prompts using the

--no-prompt

flag. Here's how you can use it:

bash
prefect deploy --prefect-file prefect.yaml --no-prompt

This will suppress the interactive prompt and proceed with the deployment using the default or specified configuration. Thank you for pointing that out. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask.

@Marvin - i see. so even if there's one it should always be selected. and if all use --all

Yes, you're correct. Using the

--no-prompt

flag will automatically select the existing deployment configuration if there's only one available. If you want to deploy all configurations without being prompted, you can use the

--all

flag:

bash
prefect deploy --prefect-file prefect.yaml --all --no-prompt

This command will deploy all available configurations defined in your

prefect.yaml

file without any interactive prompts. It's quite efficient if you're dealing with multiple configurations and want to streamline the deployment process.

marvin continues to screw this up, its a flag for

prefect

not the subgroups

thanks @Nate - realizing it's should come before the command

will keep that in my back pocket
