@Kevin Kho a month or so we had a quick comment about upcoming improvements to pickling in Prefect. have those gotten added yet to Prefect 1.0?
k
Sorry, this doesn’t ring a bell 😅. Could you remind me?
c
lookin for the thread
shoot:
k
But I can say there hasn’t been anything drastically new in 1.0, and more of the efforts are on 2.0, including how to make packaging of flows easier
c
gotcha, maybe to jog your memory, our message thread was about pickling, and then you sent a link to a recently merged PR into a/the pickling library from another github user/org. then you mentioned that switching to it was on the backlog but not scheduled
does that ring a 🔔
k
i absolutely know what this is. this is about packaging custom modules with the Flow
Let’s just say that is in active development
c
nice! scoped for 1.0? or just 2.0
k
Just 2.0 as part of general availability
c
ok so i can plan accordingly, does 2.0 have the same on-prem-ability, like having a Helm chart?
k
It will (or might already) . See this
c
cool thank you! back on topic about pickling/serialization... in 1.0 its VERY shallow, i.e. we're only seeing serialization of the top-level Flow code. anything from an
import
has to be provided another way
(we're doing complicated
pip install -e
and a custom container to side-load dependent code)
