Hi everyone, happy Friday! 👋 Prefect 2.7.7 is here 😛refect2: :cloud2: The API reference documentation has been completely rehauled with improved navigation and samples. You can see the REST API documentation on Prefect Cloud, as well as rendered in our open-source documentation. We've also improved the parsing and rendering of reference documentation for our Python API. See the tabular @flow decorator docs as an example. This release also includes lots of enhancements related to blocks:PR 7862 added
validate
flag on the
Block.load
method to facilitate block document migration, and PR 8056 allowed schema migration of block documents using
Block.save
• when you register new block types with the
prefect block register
CLI command, you will now get a link to the UI Blocks page to easily create new blocks (8017) • when you try to save a block with an invalid name, you'll see better error messages (8038) Apart from that, there are improvements and fixes to (among others!): • flow timeouts (7993) •
prefect cloud login
(8034) • Kubernetes job (8018) and its documentation (8044) •
SecretDict
serialization (8074) • annotations (7263) and their serialization (8037) • task run cache key size (7275) • RRule schedule length - there is a limit now (7762) • deployment troubleshooting - we added a log message when Prefect downloads flow code from storage and from which storage location (8075) • the result factory, which now avoids creating unnecessary DB connections (8072) • documentation - lots of improvements here, including not only docs but also a new parser and renderer (7855) For all enhancements and fixes, check the release notes. Happy engineering and have a great weekend!😛refect-duck:
