Hi all, I’m evaluating Prefect as a data pipeline tech upgrade for our company. I’m putting together some pipeline examples to share with the team and I’m wondering what a good dev-test-debug-deploy loop looks like. The example flows I’ve found in the docs and the blog use

flow.run()

for local dev, then edit the code and switch to

flow.register()

. I don’t like editing the code to switch between local dev and deployment, and it doesn’t feel like your typical Python webapp dev loop. Is there a better way to do this?

You can use the CLI to register

prefect register …

and then move the

flow.run()

into the

if name == main

part so that it is invoked by

python filename.py
