Question

wave My flow is a part of a python package and uses utility functions which are also a part of the package e g `projname flows myflow py` imports `projname utils utilfunc` This flow is scheduled from a deployment and uses `Process` as its infrastructure block I would like to ensure that the latest version of `projname` is installed to guarantee that `utilfunc` is up to date so I can t install the package when setting up agent environment I think I can install the package before running the flow if I set `Process command` to something like ` pip install amp amp python3 m prefect engine ` but maybe there s a better way to go about it

that sounds like a good approach to me Is there a reason why you don t want to set up the command that way

No reason just checking in case I m missing something slightly smiling face

Q · Answer

Finally got around to trying it can t find a way to make it work ~I don t think there is a way to execute multiple commands without setting `shell=True` ~ ~anyio sets `shell=True`~ ~`if isinstance command str ` but currently command is restricted to `List str ` ~ Looking at it a bit further I don t think this could possibly work ~even if you could pass a proper command ~ I thought code gets fetched somewhere in Infrastructure block but it actually gets fetched by `prefect engine` So there s no way to do something that involves source files before running `python3 m prefect engine` and I don t think there s a way to modify what happens there Welp

Do you mean that the command ` pip install amp amp python3 m prefect engine ` doesn t work

Q · Answer

Disregard the first part of the previous comment The way to go about executing multiple commands with `shell=False` is `command= bin bash c cmd1 args1 amp amp cmd2 args2 ` Doesn t really solve my problem but figured that out at least
