Question

I see above that `flyte cli parse proto` would work to print out the raw values of a proto is there a way to get the proto from the flyte metastore directly I m trying to add an architecture feature to flytekit and flyteidl and flyteadmin have both been updated but the value isn t making it from my register step all the way to the pod runtime so I m trying to debug where the breakdown is happening I ve copied the closure field from the tasks table but the proto parsing isn t outputting any information for me

Robert Everson · Answer

`flyte cli parse proto f closure pb p flyteidl core tasks pb2 TaskTemplate` is what I m trying and I just get ` ` as the output

Yee · Answer

you re sure the closure was downloaded correctly

Yee · Answer

just cat it

Yee · Answer

there should at least be some ascii characters in there might mess up your terminal though

Yee · Answer

and which table is this from

Robert Everson · Answer

I get a ` x200 ` value I manually copy pasted from the closure field so that may not be the right way

Yee · Answer

what s the size of the file

Yee · Answer

probably not this is postgres right

Robert Everson · Answer

yep

Yee · Answer

i think you can query a binary column to a file

Yee · Answer

will probably need to set up a tunnel though since you need the file locally

Yee · Answer

what table is this

Yee · Answer

oh tasks table

Yee · Answer

you re referring to the `closure` field <https github com flyteorg flyteidl blob 654427ef4027c6b48d997abe8770c2e8b915e84a protos flyteidl admin task proto L36|this one>

Yee · Answer

if you are then after you pull the data you should use ```flyteidl admin task pb2 TaskClosure``` instead in your command

Robert Everson · Answer

what I m ultimately trying to get is this field <https github com flyteorg flyteidl blob master protos flyteidl core tasks proto L197>

Yee · Answer

wouldn t the UI show that

Robert Everson · Answer

size is super small ```4 0K task closure pb```

Yee · Answer

and if not the ui just hitting the <https github com flyteorg flyteidl blob master protos flyteidl service admin proto L51|admin api>

Robert Everson · Answer

I was hoping it would but I m not seeing it though the version of flyteconsole we have deployed is using flyteidl `0 18 9`

Robert Everson · Answer

ah perfect

Yee · Answer

try the admin api
