Anna Geller · Answer

what are you trying to do can you explain your use case

Anna Geller · Answer

by default when you run ```pip install U prefect gt =2 0b ``` it will install just the Python client and CLI with the option to start a self hosted API Server using ```prefect orion start``` API Server is optional and you can totally only use the Python client with the ephemeral API if you choose so

We want to use just the Python API flows tasks task runners and run the flows from local always I understand that the API Server is optional but the packages are installed anyway if we use it or not

Anna Geller · Answer

it s just one package

Jose Daniel Posada Montoya · Answer

Oh ok thanks for the info

Anna Geller · Answer

if you prefer to build something custom you can clone the repository and extend it as you choose it s an OSS package the code is here <https github com PrefectHQ prefect tree orion>

Kevin Kho · Answer

I don t think you can decouple them because calling a flow hits the API and write to the DB by default
