You're right.. I think this is annoying click stuff again where things are always wrapped in a string.. I've pushed code to handle this. Can you try again?

I am still getting IndexError: list index out of range. Besides, what is the use case for this?

kedro run --params ["key1=a,key2=b"]

Would this be equivalent to kedro run --params key1=a,key2=b?

Hmm... 🤔

The use case is in VertexAI it wraps parameters in a list before passing them on. The run command is called slightly different from when it's called through the CLI from what I could see during the walkthrough. I don't know how hard it is to test this properly on VertexAI, but I can ask the client if they want to test it from the branch.

@noklam I've played around with Vertex, but since the client team has a custom setup it's hard for me to replicate and test it fully. I've contacted them, but they can't install directly from the branch. Would you be okay with merging and releasing this so they can use it more easily? Or do you still have concerns about the solution?

On the testing side:

• Can they installed from a pre-release version?
• Or could we publish this as a separate testing so they can play around with this?

On the PR itself, the use case is still a bit mysterious to me. If it's a VertexAI specific thing, why do it need to go in to kedro instead of a plugin, or run.py if it's some customisation for specific project?

From what I have seen in the test, it is different from what get actually run in kedro run that subsequently called _split_params.

For example:
When I run kedro run --params ["key1=a,key2=b"], in _split_params, the value is "[key1=a,key2=b]" instead of ["key1=a,key2=b"] (The new test), so this doesn't feel right as well.
