Hi team...when we do kedro package, it was able to package all the standard folders, but we had custom folders like utils etc ...which it was not including it...Can you pls help how this can b done

Is it under

src

?

kedro package

is a a thin wrapper around `setup.py`; if you aren't writing your code in the Python package, it's not going to package it.

yes it is under src, what is the way to packaging these

Do you have

__init__.py

under

utils

?

No..it has these

It's not a package without

__init__.py

. Add that.

Hi Deepyaman...thanks for the reply. I have a following scenario : 1. Run a kedro package to have the wheel file 2. Initialize a dataproc cluster creation by running a Shell script having pip install wheel, copy conf folders/files into /tmp folder 3. run pythom -m <package> .... this works fine running kedro pipelines. But I have a requirement to trigger the kedro run job after cluster is created...by submitting a job via python script. this fails bcs it is not able to find the /conf folder path ( as it is adding runtime folder after /tmp ...similar issue was there in this https://github.com/kedro-org/kedro/issues/370 , but it recommends to modify the setup.py to include /conf inside the package creation...but the code we have has setup.cfg but not setup.py...Can you pls help how to go about

I'd say that's less of a Kedro issue and just general Python, since you've modified your project template to use

setup.cfg

, but it's possible to include package data in any case (see https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide/datafiles.html). I personally wouldn't recommend packaging

conf

(Kedro excludes it because the opinion is that

conf

should be set at the place of deployment instead), but you can. 🤷 I believe in that old issue you referenced does not really recommend it; just says it's possible.
