Comparing two recipes to determine if one is different?

info-rchitect

Hi,

We create Dataiku project templates which give the user known-good recipes and flow zones to accomplish a certain task. The project has variables we use in the recipes to parameterize the usage such that it can be run using different settings. My question is if there is a way I could loop through the recipes in the users' project and get a boolean result if a recipe has been edited in any way.

Perhaps, there is some recipe text definition I could create a hash ID I could use to do the boolean diff?

thx

The power of the Dataiku API! Here you go:

import dataiku

client_handle = dataiku.api_client()
project_handle = client_handle.get_project('some project key')
# Or you use client_handle.list_project_keys() 
# to get all project keys

python_recipes = [i for i in project_handle.list_recipes() if i['type'] in ['python']]

for python_recipe in python_recipes:
    recipe_name = python_recipe['name']
    recipe_handle = project_handle.get_recipe(recipe_name)
    recipe_script = recipe_handle.get_settings().get_payload()
    # Do something with it

@Turribeach
What do you think of a native recipe boolean comparison function between two recipes?

Too niche to be a built-in feature. But you have the API so you leverage that. You can also use the recipe modified date compared to the creation date to see if the recipe was changed.
