e.g.
Copy code
@asset
def asset1():
return '/target_folder'
@asset(required_resource_keys={'results_io_manager'})
def calc_something():
return 1+1
@repository
def my_repo():
return[
*with_resources([asset1, calc_something]
, resource_defs={
"results_io_manager": local_pkl_io_manager.configured({"base_dir": asset1}),
]c

• have a set of assets that produce data which is stored in a folder
• the folder is defined via inputting an id -> putting this in to the launchpad would be great, so scaffolding missing configs is a nice feature

• having an asset/resource/op that basically just takes a run id and then returns a folder
• then the result of this first step is passed to the io manager configuration
• then all the other assets that I want to store output in a specific place, use the io manager

11/30/2022, 3:37 PMThis asset returns a string which would be the path for base_dir for the io manager
