Hi ! I was surprised to discover that the

pipeline

object does not have a

.name

attribute (as opposed to

node

) It would have come in handy to "restrict" certain hooks to certain pipelines. The only hack I can come up with is to identify pipelines by the name of their nodes ? Is there another / better way ? Thx M.

Hey Marc, you can use the before_pipeline_run hook

Yeah it might not be clear the difference between a ‘registered pipeline name’ i.e. an entrypoint and an instance of a pipeline object, as Nok says you need the lifecycle of a run (exposed via a hook) to contextualise a running pipeline’s name

Thanks @Nok Lam Chan & @datajoely i've tried to hack my way around by monkey patching the pipeline objects in the pipeline dict defined in

pipeline_registry.py

with :

for name, object_ in pipelines.items():
       setattr(object_, 'name', name)

What surprises me is that this works within the context of / will running the

pipeline_registry.py

but when I tried to access to the monkey-patched pipeline name in

hooks.py

in end up with an

AttributeError: 'Pipeline' object has no attribute 'name'

What am I missing / getting wrong regarding the lifecycle ?

Was on holiday. Patching attribute is not robust because filtering pipeline effectively create new pipeline object.
