How to Build a Mock ML Pipeline with Prefect in Python
Create a lightweight Prefect flow with mock preprocessing, training, and evaluation tasks to prototype an ML pipeline end-to-end.
from prefect import task, flow
from datetime import datetime
@task
def preprocess_data(raw_value: float) -> float:
"""Mock preprocessing: normalize the input value."""
return raw_value / 100.0
@task
def train_model(features: float) -> dict:
"""Mock training: return a fake model artifact."""
return …Training Pipeline Orchestration Mock DAG in Python
Build a mock DAG orchestrator that runs ML pipeline stages in dependency order using topological sorting (Kahn's algorithm).
from collections import deque
from dataclasses import dataclass, field
@dataclass
class DAGNode:
name: str
task: callable
dependencies: list[str] = field(default_factory=list)
class MockDAG:
def __init__(self, nodes: list[DAGNode]):
self.nodes = {n.name: n for n in nodes}
