Hey all, does anybody know why I can say

python -m dagit

and

python -m dagster

, but not

python -m dagster-daemon

? The latter results in

No module named dagster-daemon

Thanks a lot!

Hi - dagster-daemon is a CLI entry point that maps to dagster.daemon.cli:main https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/blob/master/python_modules/dagster/setup.py#L151 If we added a ___main___.py file like this one for dagit: https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/blob/master/python_modules/dagit/dagit/__main__.py to the daemon/cli package, then this command would work:

python -m dagster.daemon.cli

It just hasn't come up yet. Any particular reason you want to do that?

Makes sense, thanks! I'm looking to distribute an embedded python environment (incl. dagster) with an application inside an installer and haven't found a way to use the

dagit.exe

in the

Scripts

folder after moving to a different location. Running the module via

python -m

works, however (and perhaps unsurprisingly 🙂)

Got it, here's a quick PR: https://github.com/dagster-io/dagster/pull/8012 If that goes in, you'll be able to run 'python -m dagster.daemon run'

Fantastic, thanks a lot!
