Metaflow Slack Notification Plugin

A Metaflow plugin that sends detailed error notifications to Slack when a flow step fails. This helps teams monitor their Metaflow pipelines and quickly respond to failures.

Features

• Automatic Slack notifications on step failures
• Detailed error information including:
  • Flow details
  • Retry count and limits
  • Flow parameters
  • Input data
  • Full stack trace
• Easy integration with existing Metaflow pipelines

Installation

pip install metaflow-slack-notifier

Configuration

Set the following environment variables:

export METAFLOW_SLACK_APP_TOKEN="xoxb-your-token"
export METAFLOW_SLACK_CHANNEL="your-channel"

or use @environment decorator:

@environment(vars={"METAFLOW_SLACK_APP_TOKEN": "xoxb-your-token", "METAFLOW_SLACK_CHANNEL": "your-channel"})
@slack()
@step
def some_step(self):
    # write your code
    print("end")

Usage

Add the @slack decorator to any step that you want to monitor.

from metaflow import FlowSpec, slack, step
import os

token = os.getenv("METAFLOW_SLACK_APP_TOKEN")
channel = os.getenv("METAFLOW_SLACK_CHANNEL")

class MyFlow(FlowSpec):
    @step
    def start(self):
        print("start")
        self.next(self.end)

    @slack(token=token, channel=channel)
    @step
    def end(self):
        # This will trigger a Slack notification due to ZeroDivisionError
        1 / 0
        print("end")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    MyFlow()

When the step fails, you'll receive a notification in your Slack channel with the error details.
