Features

Enable mounting host volumes in AWS Batch

With this release, you can now mount and access instance host volumes within a Metaflow task running on AWS Batch. To access a host volume, you can add host-volumes argument to your @batch decorator -

@batch(host_volumes=['/home', '/var/log'])

Bug Fixes

Fix input values for Parameters of type list within a Metaflow Foreach task

The following flow had a bug where the value for self.input was being imputed to None rather than the dictionary element. This release fixes this issue -

from metaflow import FlowSpec, Parameter, step, JSONType

class ForeachFlow(FlowSpec):
    numbers_param = Parameter(
        "numbers_param",
        type=JSONType,
        default='[1,2,3]'
    )
    
    @step
    def start(self):
        # This works, and passes each number to the run_number step:
        #
        # self.numbers = self.numbers_param
        # self.next(self.run_number, foreach='numbers')
        
        # But this doesn't:
        self.next(self.run_number, foreach='numbers_param')
        
    @step
    def run_number(self):
        print(f"number is {self.input}")
        self.next(self.join)
        
    @step
    def join(self, inputs):
        self.next(self.end)
        
    @step
    def end(self):
        pass
    
if __name__ == '__main__':
    ForeachFlow()
