prefect-databricks¶

Welcome!¶

Prefect integrations for interacting with Databricks

The tasks within this collection were created by a code generator using the service's OpenAPI spec.

The service's REST API documentation can be found here.

Getting Started¶

Python setup¶

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. For more information about how to use Prefect, please refer to the Prefect documentation.

Installation¶

Install prefect-databricks with pip:

pip install prefect-databricks

Lists jobs on the Databricks instance¶

from prefect import flow
from prefect_databricks import DatabricksCredentials
from prefect_databricks.jobs import jobs_list


@flow
def example_execute_endpoint_flow():
    databricks_credentials = DatabricksCredentials.load("my-block")
    jobs = jobs_list(
        databricks_credentials,
        limit=5
    )
    return jobs

example_execute_endpoint_flow()

Use `with_options` to customize options on any existing task or flow¶

custom_example_execute_endpoint_flow = example_execute_endpoint_flow.with_options(
    name="My custom flow name",
    retries=2,
    retry_delay_seconds=10,
)

Launch a new cluster and run a Databricks notebook¶

Notebook named example.ipynb on Databricks which accepts a name parameter:

name = dbutils.widgets.get("name")
message = f"Don't worry {name}, I got your request! Welcome to prefect-databricks!"
print(message)

Prefect flow that launches a new cluster to run example.ipynb:

from prefect import flow
from prefect_databricks import DatabricksCredentials
from prefect_databricks.jobs import jobs_runs_submit
from prefect_databricks.models.jobs import (
    AutoScale,
    AwsAttributes,
    JobTaskSettings,
    NotebookTask,
    NewCluster,
)


@flow
def jobs_runs_submit_flow(notebook_path, **base_parameters):
    databricks_credentials = DatabricksCredentials.load("my-block")

    # specify new cluster settings
    aws_attributes = AwsAttributes(
        availability="SPOT",
        zone_id="us-west-2a",
        ebs_volume_type="GENERAL_PURPOSE_SSD",
        ebs_volume_count=3,
        ebs_volume_size=100,
    )
    auto_scale = AutoScale(min_workers=1, max_workers=2)
    new_cluster = NewCluster(
        aws_attributes=aws_attributes,
        autoscale=auto_scale,
        node_type_id="m4.large",
        spark_version="10.4.x-scala2.12",
        spark_conf={"spark.speculation": True},
    )

    # specify notebook to use and parameters to pass
    notebook_task = NotebookTask(
        notebook_path=notebook_path,
        base_parameters=base_parameters,
    )

    # compile job task settings
    job_task_settings = JobTaskSettings(
        new_cluster=new_cluster,
        notebook_task=notebook_task,
        task_key="prefect-task"
    )

    run = jobs_runs_submit(
        databricks_credentials=databricks_credentials,
        run_name="prefect-job",
        tasks=[job_task_settings]
    )

    return run


jobs_runs_submit_flow("/Users/username@gmail.com/example.ipynb", name="Marvin")

Note, instead of using the built-in models, you may also input valid JSON. For example, AutoScale(min_workers=1, max_workers=2) is equivalent to {"min_workers": 1, "max_workers": 2}.
