Hi! Is there a way to get current image FQN (in case of a remote execution) from within a task? Specifically I would be interested in having that information in

PythonTask.pre_execute()

, so

user_params: ExecutionParameters

would also be available if that helps.

hey!

@agreeable-kitchen-44189 would love to understand the usecase. and also file an issue. I think you can do this today, by adding the image as an environment variable. We did not want rely on Flyte internal vars

Thanks for the quick response @thankful-minister-83577 @freezing-airport-6809! The usecase is that I am working on a

flytekit

dask

plugin at the moment (very similar to this Flyte issue). I thought it might be nice if the

dask

cluster spins up its scheduler and worker nodes with the same image as the one that the Flyte task is running on (in the remote execution case). As a side note, if we things are working, we would also like to upstream our changes and contribute the plugin to the

flytekit

repository. I've currently based my work on the new (and experimental) dask operator.

Fantastic tbh, this would be best accomplished using a backend plugin

@agreeable-kitchen-44189 Your link to the similar Flyte issue seems to be broken. Can you send the link again?

Ok, @freezing-airport-6809 I'll look into the backend plugin, don't have a time estimate yet though (especially as we have a working

flytekit

plugin, which is only a few lines of code) 👍 @echoing-queen-96254 Sorry for that, this should be the link: https://github.com/flyteorg/flyte/issues/427

@agreeable-kitchen-44189 No worries. Thanks!

@agreeable-kitchen-44189 that is perfect. We can help with the backend plugin. But if you have a flytekit plugin, and are open to sharing it, we would love to TAL at it
