@ancient-wolf-19325 Can we use ImageSpec to build the custom image used by FlyteAgent?

Yes, you can use
ImageSpec
to build custom images for Flyte tasks and workflows, which can include FlyteAgent. According to Flyte 1.6 release notes,
ImageSpec
allows you to define and build container images without needing a Dockerfile. This can be particularly useful for customizing images with specific dependencies and configurations. Here is an example of how to use
ImageSpec
to build a custom image:
Copy code
from flytekit import ImageSpec, Resources, task

custom_image_spec = ImageSpec(
    base_image="ghcr.io/flyteorg/flytekit:py3.8-1.6.0",
    packages=["pandas", "numpy"],
    python_version="3.9",
    apt_packages=["git"],
    env={"Debug": "True"},
)

@task(container_image=custom_image_spec)
def sample_task() -> str:
    return "Custom image with FlyteAgent dependencies built successfully!"
