Prefect Community

Has anyone tried out dbt-prefect in v2..  more specifically what sort of patterns would you use now?

In prefect 1 we have a flow that first clones our repo from github, then is able to use the DbtShellTask .. with helper e.g. `cd &lt;dbt_project_dir&gt;` (flows are ran via ECS)

Thinking in prefect 2 it might be better to package the dbt code to s3 and use a storage block.. if my flow lives in one place and my dbt project in another hoping it will just work through the magic of s3fs? Although that will mean a change to our DBT cicd  (not a huge effort though)

There is a prefect-dbt collection. I have a flow that used an s3 bucket for storage and call the trigger dbt cloud run and wait for completion task

that said the dbt code just upload to a an s3 sub-path where the main flow that uses the project.. so they could just live together there

Thanks <@U02GJERRQH3> yes that is what I’m planning to use, just the cli version
