LocalFiles

⚠ Deprecated

yaml

type: "io.kestra.plugin.core.storage.LocalFiles"

Allow to create files in the local filesystem or to send files from the local filesystem to the Kestra's internal storage.

Replaced by inputFiles property on the WorkingDirectory task - migration information here. Previously, this task should be used with the WorkingDirectory task to be able to access the same local filesystem within multiple tasks. Note that this task cannot be skipped, so setting disabled: true will not work on this task.

Examples

Output local files created in a Python task and load them to S3.
