Execute a Python script
This task is deprecated, please use the io.kestra.plugin.scripts.python.Script or io.kestra.plugin.scripts.python.Commands task instead.
With the Python task, you can execute a full Python script.
The task will create a fresh virtualenv for every tasks and allows to install some Python package define in requirements property.
By convention, you need to define at least a main.py files in inputFiles that will be the script used.
But you are also able to add as many script as you need in inputFiles.
You can also add a pip.conf in inputFiles to customize the pip download of dependencies (like a private registry).
You can send outputs & metrics from your python script that can be used by others tasks. In order to help, we inject a python package directly on the working dir.Here is an example usage:
from kestra import Kestra
Kestra.outputs({'test': 'value', 'int': 2, 'bool': True, 'float': 3.65})
Kestra.counter('count', 1, {'tag1': 'i', 'tag2': 'win'})
Kestra.timer('timer1', lambda: time.sleep(1), {'tag1': 'i', 'tag2': 'lost'})
Kestra.timer('timer2', 2.12, {'tag1': 'i', 'tag2': 'destroy'})

YEStrueYESpython1The python interpreter to use
Set the python interpreter path to use
YEStrueYESPython command args
Arguments list to pass to main python script
YES[
"./bin/python main.py"
]1The commands to run
Default command will be launched with ./bin/python main.py {{args}}
NODocker options when using the DOCKER runner.
YESOne or more additional environment variable(s) to add to the task run.
YESDeprecated The list of files that will be uploaded to Kestra's internal storage.
Use outputFiles instead.
YESInput files are extra files that will be available in the script's working directory.
Define the files as a map of a file name being the key, and the value being the file's content. Alternatively, configure the files as a JSON string with the same key/value structure as the map. In both cases, you can either specify the file's content inline, or reference a file from Kestra's internal storage by its URI, e.g. a file from an input, output of a previous task, or a Namespace File.
YES/bin/shInterpreter to use when launching the process.
NO[
"-c"
]Interpreter arguments to be used.
YESList of output directories that will be uploaded to Kestra's internal storage.
List of keys that will generate temporary directories.
This property can be used with a special variable named outputDirs.key.
If you add a file with ["myDir"], you can use the special var echo 1 >> {[ outputDirs.myDir }}/file1.txt and echo 2 >> {[ outputDirs.myDir }}/file2.txt, and both the files will be uploaded to Kestra's internal storage. You can reference them in other tasks using {{ outputs.taskId.outputFiles['myDir/file1.txt'] }}.
YESOutput file list that will be uploaded to Kestra's internal storage.
List of keys that will generate temporary files.
This property can be used with a special variable named outputFiles.key.
If you add a file with ["first"], you can use the special var echo 1 >> {[ outputFiles.first }}, and on other tasks, you can reference it using {{ outputs.taskId.outputFiles.first }}.
YESDeprecated Output files.
Use outputFiles instead.
YESRequirements are python dependencies to add to the python execution process
Python dependencies list to setup in the virtualenv, in the same format than requirements.txt
YESPROCESSPROCESSDOCKERThe task runner.
NOtrueCreate a virtual env
When a virtual env is created, we will install the requirements needed. Disabled it if all the requirements is already on the file system.
If you disabled the virtual env creation, the requirements will be ignored.
0The exit code of the whole execution.
Deprecated Output files.
Use outputFiles instead.
The output files' URIs in Kestra's internal storage.
0The standard error line count.
0The standard output line count.
The value extracted from the output of the commands.
YESYESThe maximum amount of kernel memory the container can use.
The minimum allowed value is 4MB. Because kernel memory cannot be swapped out, a container which is starved of kernel memory may block host machine resources, which can have side effects on the host machine and on other containers. See the kernel-memory docs for more details.
YESThe maximum amount of memory resources the container can use.
Make sure to use the format number + unit (regardless of the case) without any spaces.
The unit can be KB (kilobytes), MB (megabytes), GB (gigabytes), etc.
Given that it's case-insensitive, the following values are equivalent:
"512MB""512Mb""512mb""512000KB""0.5GB"
It is recommended that you allocate at least 6MB.
YESAllows you to specify a soft limit smaller than memory which is activated when Docker detects contention or low memory on the host machine.
If you use memoryReservation, it must be set lower than memory for it to take precedence. Because it is a soft limit, it does not guarantee that the container doesn’t exceed the limit.
YESThe total amount of memory and swap that can be used by a container.
If memory and memorySwap are set to the same value, this prevents containers from using any swap. This is because memorySwap includes both the physical memory and swap space, while memory is only the amount of physical memory that can be used.
YESA setting which controls the likelihood of the kernel to swap memory pages.
By default, the host kernel can swap out a percentage of anonymous pages used by a container. You can set memorySwappiness to a value between 0 and 100 to tune this percentage.
YESYES1Docker image to use.
YESDocker configuration file.
Docker configuration file that can set access credentials to private container registries. Usually located in ~/.docker/config.json.
NOLimits the CPU usage to a given maximum threshold value.
By default, each container’s access to the host machine’s CPU cycles is unlimited. You can set various constraints to limit a given container’s access to the host machine’s CPU cycles.
YESYESDocker entrypoint to use.
YESExtra hostname mappings to the container network interface configuration.
YESDocker API URI.
NOLimits memory usage to a given maximum threshold value.
Docker can enforce hard memory limits, which allow the container to use no more than a given amount of user or system memory, or soft limits, which allow the container to use as much memory as it needs unless certain conditions are met, such as when the kernel detects low memory or contention on the host machine. Some of these options have different effects when used alone or when more than one option is set.
YESDocker network mode to use e.g. host, none, etc.
YESYESALWAYSIF_NOT_PRESENTALWAYSNEVERThe image pull policy for a container image and the tag of the image, which affect when Docker attempts to pull (download) the specified image.
YESSize of /dev/shm in bytes.
The size must be greater than 0. If omitted, the system uses 64MB.
YESUser in the Docker container.
YESList of volumes to mount.
Must be a valid mount expression as string, example : /home/user:/app.
Volumes mount are disabled by default for security reasons; you must enable them on server configuration by setting kestra.tasks.scripts.docker.volume-enabled to true.
YESThe registry authentication.
The auth field is a base64-encoded authentication string of username: password or a token.
YESThe identity token.
YESThe registry password.
YESThe registry URL.
If not defined, the registry will be extracted from the image name.
YESThe registry token.
YESThe registry username.
YESA list of capabilities; an OR list of AND lists of capabilities.
YESYESYESYESDriver-specific options, specified as key/value pairs.
These options are passed directly to the driver.
