Hi, we have a Flyte task which is supposed to have

datetime.date

as a parameter. Does Flyte support data types like

datetime.date

/

datetime.datetime

?

yes, https://docs.flyte.org/projects/cookbook/en/latest/getting_started/run_schedule.html#passing-in-the-scheduled-kick-off-time

Thanks @Kevin Su for the help. This page mentions

datetime.datetime

but

datime.date

is mentioned here. Hence the question

ohh, sorry, you’re looking for

datatime.date

. we don’t support it yet. it’s a known issue. https://github.com/flyteorg/flyte/issues/3026

ah ok. Thank you. We will not use

datetime.date

then

We can add this transformer, should be trivial- @Chandrashekhar Kotekar contribution?

I can work on it on weekends but need some help in getting started.

Let me share an example

Thanks for the help but I need to start from "what is transformer" in Flyte. 😄

@Yi Chiu is also interested in contributing. I assigned this issue to him yesterday.

Yes I am working on it!

Howdy, I am encountering a

Object of type date is not JSON serializable

and we are on 1.9.0, which is the release that introduced support for

datetime.date

. However, I use

datetime.date

in a dataclass as follows:

@dataclass_json
@dataclass
class MyOutputClass:
    start_date: datetime.date
    end_date: datetime.date

Should I expect this to work?

@Len Strnad, can you use mashumaro? You can find an example here.

Awesome, we will look into that. We use conda and might have to wait until 1.10 is on conda-forge first. I am excited for all the 1.10 features!
