# Running on DataFlow
|
||||
|
||||
The pipeline runs as is on GCP DataFlow. The following documents how I deployed to my personal GCP account but the approach may vary depending on project/account in GCP.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
### Cloud Storage
|
||||
|
||||
- A Cloud Storage bucket with the following structure:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
./input
|
||||
./output
|
||||
./tmp
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Place the input files into the `./input` directory in the bucket.
|
||||
|
||||
### VPC
|
||||
|
||||
To get around public IP quotas I created a VPC in the `europe-west1` region that has `Private Google Access` turned to `ON`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Command
|
||||
|
||||
!!! tip
|
||||
We need to choose a `worker_machine_type` with sufficient memory to run the pipeline. As the pipeline uses a mapping table, and DataFlow autoscales on CPU and not memory usage, we need a machine with more ram than usual to ensure sufficient memory when running on one worker. For `pp-2020.csv` the type `n1-highmem-2` with 2vCPU and 13GB of ram was chosen and completed successfully in ~10 minutes using only 1 worker.
|
||||
|
||||
Assuming the `pp-2020.csv` file has been placed in the `./input` directory in the bucket you can run a command similar to:
|
||||
|
||||
!!! caution
|
||||
Use the command `python -m analyse_properties.main` as the entrypoint to the pipeline and not `analyse-properties` as the module isn't installed with poetry on the workers with the configuration below.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
python -m analyse_properties.main \
|
||||
--runner DataflowRunner \
|
||||
--project street-group \
|
||||
--region europe-west1 \
|
||||
--input gs://street-group-technical-test-dmot-euw1/input/pp-2020.csv \
|
||||
--output gs://street-group-technical-test-dmot-euw1/output/pp-2020 \
|
||||
--temp_location gs://street-group-technical-test-dmot-euw1/tmp \
|
||||
--subnetwork=https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/street-group/regions/europe-west1/subnetworks/europe-west-1-dataflow \
|
||||
--no_use_public_ips \
|
||||
--worker_machine_type=n1-highmem-2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
