Hi Team, I am experimenting with modular pipelines. The pipeline template takes 5 parameters, out of which 2 vary within the different namespaces. The other 3 parameters are static within in my current use-case, but might require adaptions in future. Therefore, I would like to define the 3 static parameters as constant for pipeline template, without having to re-define with each namespaced pipeline. However, because of the namespaces of each instantiation the pipelines do not find the 3 static parameters without defining them for each namespace. How can I do this in a proper way?

In the modular pipeline construction, specify the parameters mapping. For these 3 static parameters, you can pass something like

parameter={'p1': 'p1', 'p2': 'p2', 'p3': 'p3'}

That's what i have done so far. But I dislike the fact that i have to declare the 3 static parameters within each instantiation.

Ah, sorry, I misunderstood; I thought you were copying them as separate parameters like

namespace1.p1, namespace2.p2, namespace3.p3

. In that case, there's not that much better you can do out of the box. You could define a custom

pipeline_with_static_params()

wrapper or something that takes the arguments to

pipeline()

and the list of static params as a convenience wrapper, but I honestly wouldn't, since it provides limited value (you can always use a dictionary comprehension or something to create the mapping of static parameters).
