hey guys, I am following this docker-compose setup for local development https://github.com/fraibacas/prefect-orion, but for some reason, even though

s3fs

is installed, I cant add any kind of block in the UI, do you think the issue is related to docker?

I'm curious, where did you get this repository from? We have an official Docker-compose recipe from Ryan here

oh, no idea, i just googled docker-compose prefect and I got a link to the official prefect blog https://www.prefect.io/guide/community-posts/run-prefect-2-locally-with-docker-compose/

gotcha, that makes sense. You can definitely use that one, but it's easier to answer questions from an official Prefect recipe because Ryan could help answer those (he wrote it)

i mean, how is the one on the official prefect blog not official

fair point 😄 not official in the sense it's marked as "Community post" rather than posted by a Prefect engineer

true, i would argue that discourse is the community as well

yeah honestly this repo is pretty good though and it looks like it helped you out

so if i were to trust a post on prefect.io blog versus something on discourse that looks like this id trust prefect

the main thing here is that we can't guarantee that things contributed by the community are up to date because we don't have control over those

oh i believe you

for sure, and it's really not all black and white -- both recipes here are super valuable and both could be outdated 😄 it's a matter of: use what is helpful, adjust to your use case, and if something is not working or if you have specific questions, ask concretely for the s3fs question: I would use that one too, but Ryan went as far as assuming you run everything locally and you have no access to cloud resources so he used minio instead of S3

but like, there is no minio type block, isnt it? its just a layer to mimic s3 locally?

by using RemoteFileSystem block, no s3fs needed for that

aaaah gotcha

exactly, S3 is a convenience block built entirely on top of RemoteFileSystem

gotcha
