flytekit.wait_for_input#
- flytekit.wait_for_input(name, timeout, expected_type)[source]#
Create a Gate object that waits for user input of the specified type.
Create a Gate object. This object will function like a task. Note that unlike a task, each time this function is called, a new Python object is created. If a workflow calls a subworkflow twice, and the subworkflow has a signal, then two Gate objects are created. This shouldn’t be a problem as long as the objects are identical.
- Parameters
name (str) – The name of the gate node.
timeout (datetime.timedelta) – How long to wait for before Flyte fails the workflow.
expected_type (Type) – What is the type that the user will be inputting?
- Returns
