Hey, got a little trouble when trying to register my workflow to my remote flyte instance using
Copy code
pyflyte register workflows/workflows.py
By the looks of it, it happens when it tries to generate a default launchplan, but I'm not sure how to fix it or how to reproduce it outside of registration Stacktrace in 🧵
Copy code
:

One type annotation had a '=" instead of ':' 😅

could you share your code snippet?

I can't post specifically my code due to confidentiality reasons, but it looked similar to:
Copy code
from flytekit import workflow

@workflow
def mywf(first=str, second=str):
  ....
instead of
Copy code
from flytekit import workflow

@workflow
def mywf(first:str, second:str):
  ....
Swapping the equal signs for colons was all I needed to do
Just wasnt' immediately clear from the stacktrace
k
ah, I see. could you file a ticket? [flyte-bug]

we’re trying to improve the error message recently
