Un-necessary warning message with each requests to the get_online_features() API function.

[Atul-Anand-Jha]

Expected Behaviour

Ideally, It should not throw any warning message. Since, the function under examination is an internal function.

Current Behaviour

After upgrading the feast from v0.36.0 to v0.40.1; and shifting from _get_online_features() (internal API) to get_online_features() (public API). FYI, _get_online_features() private API has been deprecated with feast v0.38.*

I am getting this warning message on each request i hit to my feature Store. I am using Python-SDK for feast feature-store client.

Warning message -

2024-10-01 13:36:39.126 IST
_list_feature_views will make breaking changes. Please use _list_batch_feature_views instead. _list_feature_views will behave like _list_all_feature_views in the future.

Extended log -

This is annoying and producing unwanted logs with each requests.

Steps to reproduce

Upgrade Feast version to v0.40.1 and use the public API (get_online_features()) to fetch the features from online Store (REDIS).

Specifications

• Version: v0.40.1
• Platform: GKE
• Subsystem: Python3.9.12, requests - v2.28.1

Possible Solution

Disable this warning, or update the abstract method calling internally. Since, the functions -
"_list_feature_views", "_list_batch_feature_views", "_list_all_feature_views" are all internal functions, and can't be controlled by end-users using feast's public API.
