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 @glamorous-carpet-83516 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- @millions-night-34157 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. 😄

@flaky-daybreak-42119 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?

@bored-beard-89967, 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!
