Prefect integrations with Microsoft Planetary Computer

Visit the full docs here to see additional examples and the API reference.

Prefect integrations with the Microsoft Planetary Computer (PC).

Overview

This collection includes a Credentials Block 🔑 to store and retrieve a PC subscription key and Jupyter Hub token, with convenience methods to easily interact with the PC Data Catalog 🌍 and Dask Gateway 🚀 server.

For more information about:

• using Azure services with Prefect and the Planetary Computer, check out the prefect-azure collection.
• the integration between Prefect and Dask, check out the prefect-dask collection.
• taking advantage of the Planetary Computer data catalog and compute resources, check out the Planetary Computer documentation.

Resources

Installation

Install prefect-planetary-computer with pip:

pip install prefect-planetary-computer

Requires an installation of Python 3.8+.

We recommend using a Python virtual environment manager such as pipenv, conda or virtualenv.

These tasks are designed to work with Prefect 2.0. For more information about how to use Prefect, please refer to the Prefect documentation.

Usage

!!! note * The following Examples are adapted from Planetary Computer - Scale with Dask.

- Require the following additional packages:
    ```
    pip install xarray zarr adlfs netcdf4 prefect_azure
    ```
- Make sure to share the same python dependencies - in particular `dask` and `distributed` - between the flow execution environment, the Dask Scheduler and Workers, [as explained in the Dask docs](https://docs.dask.org/en/stable/deployment-considerations.html#consistent-software-environments).

Computing Dask Collections

Dask collection computations, such as Dask DataFrames, can be supported from within a Prefect task by creating a Dask Gateway cluster using the credentials block within the main flow or task itself.

# Prefect tasks are executed using the default ConcurrentTaskRunner
# Dask Collections tasks are executed on a new temporary Dask cluster

Using the Dask Task Runner

Prefect's prefect_dask.DaskTaskRunner automatically instatiates a temporary Dask cluster at flow execution time, enabling submission of both Prefect and Dask Collections tasks.

!!! warning - prefect-dask requires: distributed==2022.2.0; python_version < '3.8' distributed>=2022.5.0,<=2023.3.1 - It requires less configuration on the Dask Workers side when using Prefect Cloud, you can get started for free.

# Both Prefect tasks and Dask Collections task are executed
# on a new temporary Dask cluster
