## flytekit.extras.tasks.shell.RawShellTask

### Parameters

```python
class RawShellTask(
    name: str,
    debug: bool,
    script: typing.Optional[str],
    script_file: typing.Optional[str],
    task_config: ~T,
    inputs: typing.Optional[typing.Dict[str, typing.Type]],
    output_locs: typing.Optional[typing.List[flytekit.extras.tasks.shell.OutputLocation]],
    kwargs,
)
```
The `RawShellTask` is a minimal extension of the existing `ShellTask`. It's purpose is to support wrapping a
"raw" or "pure" shell script which needs to be executed with some environment variables set, and some arguments,
which may not be known until execution time.

This class is not meant to be instantiated into tasks by users, but used with the factory function
`get_raw_shell_task()`. An instance of this class will be returned with either user-specified or default
template. The template itself will export the desired environment variables, and subsequently execute the
desired "raw" script with the specified arguments.

> [!NOTE]
> This means that within your workflow, you can dynamically control the env variables, arguments, and even the
    actual script you want to run.

> [!NOTE]
> The downside is that a dynamic workflow will be required. The "raw" script passed in at execution time must
    be at the specified location.

These args are forwarded directly to the parent `ShellTask` constructor as behavior does not diverge

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `name` | `str` | |
| `debug` | `bool` | |
| `script` | `typing.Optional[str]` | |
| `script_file` | `typing.Optional[str]` | |
| `task_config` | `~T` | |
| `inputs` | `typing.Optional[typing.Dict[str, typing.Type]]` | |
| `output_locs` | `typing.Optional[typing.List[flytekit.extras.tasks.shell.OutputLocation]]` | |
| `kwargs` | `**kwargs` | |

```
Post execute is called after the execution has completed, with the user_params and can be used to clean-up,
or alter the outputs to match the intended tasks outputs. If not overridden, then this function is a No-op

#### pre_execute()

```python
def pre_execute(
    user_params: flytekit.core.context_manager.ExecutionParameters,
) -> flytekit.core.context_manager.ExecutionParameters
```
This is the method that will be invoked directly before executing the task method and before all the inputs
are converted. One particular case where this is useful is if the context is to be modified for the user process
to get some user space parameters. This also ensures that things like SparkSession are already correctly
setup before the type transformers are called

This should return either the same context of the mutated context

| Parameter | Type | Description |

    input_literal_map: flytekit.models.literals.LiteralMap,

    get_command_fn: Optional[Callable[[SerializationSettings], List[str]]],
)
```
By default, the task will run on the Flyte platform using the pyflyte-execute command.
However, it can be useful to update the command with which the task is serialized for specific cases like
running map tasks ("pyflyte-map-execute") or for fast-executed tasks.

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `get_command_fn` | `Optional[Callable[[SerializationSettings], List[str]]]` | |

#### set_resolver()

```python
def set_resolver(
    resolver: TaskResolverMixin,
)
```

task resolver. It can be useful to override the task resolver for specific cases like running tasks in the jupyter notebook.

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|

    ctx: flytekit.core.context_manager.FlyteContext,
    input_literal_map: flytekit.models.literals.LiteralMap,
) -> typing.Union[flytekit.models.literals.LiteralMap, flytekit.models.dynamic_job.DynamicJobSpec, typing.Coroutine]
```
This method translates Flyte's Type system based input values and invokes the actual call to the executor
This method is also invoked during runtime.

* ``VoidPromise`` is returned in the case when the task itself declares no outputs.
* ``Literal Map`` is returned when the task returns either one more outputs in the declaration. Individual outputs
  may be none
* ``DynamicJobSpec`` is returned when a dynamic workflow is executed

) -> typing.Type[typing.Any]
```
Returns the python type for an input variable by name.

|-|-|-|
| `k` | `str` | |
| `v` | `typing.Any` | |

#### get_type_for_output_var()

#### local_execute()

```python
def local_execute(
    ctx: flytekit.core.context_manager.FlyteContext,
    kwargs,
) -> typing.Union[typing.Tuple[flytekit.core.promise.Promise], flytekit.core.promise.Promise, flytekit.core.promise.VoidPromise, typing.Coroutine, NoneType]
```
This function is used only in the local execution path and is responsible for calling dispatch execute.
Use this function when calling a task with native values (or Promises containing Flyte literals derived from
Python native values).

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `ctx` | `flytekit.core.context_manager.FlyteContext` | |
| `kwargs` | `**kwargs` | |

#### local_execution_mode()

```python
def local_execution_mode()
```
#### post_execute()

```python
def post_execute(
    user_params: flytekit.core.context_manager.ExecutionParameters,
    rval: typing.Any,
) -> typing.Any
```
Post execute is called after the execution has completed, with the user_params and can be used to clean-up,
or alter the outputs to match the intended tasks outputs. If not overridden, then this function is a No-op

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `user_params` | `flytekit.core.context_manager.ExecutionParameters` | are the modified user params as created during the pre_execute step |
| `rval` | `typing.Any` | |

#### pre_execute()

```python
def pre_execute(
    user_params: flytekit.core.context_manager.ExecutionParameters,
) -> flytekit.core.context_manager.ExecutionParameters
```
This is the method that will be invoked directly before executing the task method and before all the inputs
are converted. One particular case where this is useful is if the context is to be modified for the user process
to get some user space parameters. This also ensures that things like SparkSession are already correctly
setup before the type transformers are called

This should return either the same context of the mutated context

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `user_params` | `flytekit.core.context_manager.ExecutionParameters` | |

#### reset_command_fn()

```python
def reset_command_fn()
```
Resets the command which should be used in the container definition of this task to the default arguments.
This is useful when the command line is overridden at serialization time.

#### sandbox_execute()

```python
def sandbox_execute(
    ctx: flytekit.core.context_manager.FlyteContext,
    input_literal_map: flytekit.models.literals.LiteralMap,
) -> flytekit.models.literals.LiteralMap
```
Call dispatch_execute, in the context of a local sandbox execution. Not invoked during runtime.

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `ctx` | `flytekit.core.context_manager.FlyteContext` | |
| `input_literal_map` | `flytekit.models.literals.LiteralMap` | |

#### set_command_fn()

```python
def set_command_fn(
    get_command_fn: Optional[Callable[[SerializationSettings], List[str]]],
)
```
By default, the task will run on the Flyte platform using the pyflyte-execute command.
However, it can be useful to update the command with which the task is serialized for specific cases like
running map tasks ("pyflyte-map-execute") or for fast-executed tasks.

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `get_command_fn` | `Optional[Callable[[SerializationSettings], List[str]]]` | |

#### set_resolver()

```python
def set_resolver(
    resolver: TaskResolverMixin,
)
```
By default, flytekit uses the DefaultTaskResolver to resolve the task. This method allows the user to set a custom
task resolver. It can be useful to override the task resolver for specific cases like running tasks in the jupyter notebook.

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-|-|-|
| `resolver` | `TaskResolverMixin` | |
