Metaclass of BaseOperator.

classmethod _apply_defaults(cls, func: T)[source]¶

Function decorator that Looks for an argument named "default_args", and fills the unspecified arguments from it.

Since python2.* isn't clear about which arguments are missing when calling a function, and that this can be quite confusing with multi-level inheritance and argument defaults, this decorator also alerts with specific information about the missing arguments.

Bases: airflow.models.base.Operator, airflow.utils.log.logging_mixin.LoggingMixin, airflow.models.taskmixin.TaskMixin

Abstract base class for all operators. Since operators create objects that become nodes in the dag, BaseOperator contains many recursive methods for dag crawling behavior. To derive this class, you are expected to override the constructor as well as the 'execute' method.

Operators derived from this class should perform or trigger certain tasks synchronously (wait for completion). Example of operators could be an operator that runs a Pig job (PigOperator), a sensor operator that waits for a partition to land in Hive (HiveSensorOperator), or one that moves data from Hive to MySQL (Hive2MySqlOperator). Instances of these operators (tasks) target specific operations, running specific scripts, functions or data transfers.

This class is abstract and shouldn't be instantiated. Instantiating a class derived from this one results in the creation of a task object, which ultimately becomes a node in DAG objects. Task dependencies should be set by using the set_upstream and/or set_downstream methods.

Parameters

task_id (str) -- a unique, meaningful id for the task
owner (str) -- the owner of the task, using the unix username is recommended
email (str or list[str]) -- the 'to' email address(es) used in email alerts. This can be a single email or multiple ones. Multiple addresses can be specified as a comma or semi-colon separated string or by passing a list of strings.
email_on_retry (bool) -- Indicates whether email alerts should be sent when a task is retried
email_on_failure (bool) -- Indicates whether email alerts should be sent when a task failed
retries (int) -- the number of retries that should be performed before failing the task
retry_delay (datetime.timedelta) -- delay between retries
retry_exponential_backoff (bool) -- allow progressive longer waits between retries by using exponential backoff algorithm on retry delay (delay will be converted into seconds)
max_retry_delay (datetime.timedelta) -- maximum delay interval between retries
start_date (datetime.datetime) -- The start_date for the task, determines the execution_date for the first task instance. The best practice is to have the start_date rounded to your DAG's schedule_interval. Daily jobs have their start_date some day at 00:00:00, hourly jobs have their start_date at 00:00 of a specific hour. Note that Airflow simply looks at the latest execution_date and adds the schedule_interval to determine the next execution_date. It is also very important to note that different tasks' dependencies need to line up in time. If task A depends on task B and their start_date are offset in a way that their execution_date don't line up, A's dependencies will never be met. If you are looking to delay a task, for example running a daily task at 2AM, look into the TimeSensor and TimeDeltaSensor. We advise against using dynamic start_date and recommend using fixed ones. Read the FAQ entry about start_date for more information.
end_date (datetime.datetime) -- if specified, the scheduler won't go beyond this date
depends_on_past (bool) -- when set to true, task instances will run sequentially and only if the previous instance has succeeded or has been skipped. The task instance for the start_date is allowed to run.
wait_for_downstream (bool) -- when set to true, an instance of task X will wait for tasks immediately downstream of the previous instance of task X to finish successfully or be skipped before it runs. This is useful if the different instances of a task X alter the same asset, and this asset is used by tasks downstream of task X. Note that depends_on_past is forced to True wherever wait_for_downstream is used. Also note that only tasks immediately downstream of the previous task instance are waited for; the statuses of any tasks further downstream are ignored.
dag (airflow.models.DAG) -- a reference to the dag the task is attached to (if any)
priority_weight (int) -- priority weight of this task against other task. This allows the executor to trigger higher priority tasks before others when things get backed up. Set priority_weight as a higher number for more important tasks.
weight_rule (str) -- weighting method used for the effective total priority weight of the task. Options are: { downstream | upstream | absolute } default is downstream When set to downstream the effective weight of the task is the aggregate sum of all downstream descendants. As a result, upstream tasks will have higher weight and will be scheduled more aggressively when using positive weight values. This is useful when you have multiple dag run instances and desire to have all upstream tasks to complete for all runs before each dag can continue processing downstream tasks. When set to upstream the effective weight is the aggregate sum of all upstream ancestors. This is the opposite where downstream tasks have higher weight and will be scheduled more aggressively when using positive weight values. This is useful when you have multiple dag run instances and prefer to have each dag complete before starting upstream tasks of other dags. When set to absolute, the effective weight is the exact priority_weight specified without additional weighting. You may want to do this when you know exactly what priority weight each task should have. Additionally, when set to absolute, there is bonus effect of significantly speeding up the task creation process as for very large DAGS. Options can be set as string or using the constants defined in the static class airflow.utils.WeightRule
queue (str) -- which queue to target when running this job. Not all executors implement queue management, the CeleryExecutor does support targeting specific queues.
pool (str) -- the slot pool this task should run in, slot pools are a way to limit concurrency for certain tasks
pool_slots (int) -- the number of pool slots this task should use (>= 1) Values less than 1 are not allowed.
sla (datetime.timedelta) -- time by which the job is expected to succeed. Note that this represents the timedelta after the period is closed. For example if you set an SLA of 1 hour, the scheduler would send an email soon after 1:00AM on the 2016-01-02 if the 2016-01-01 instance has not succeeded yet. The scheduler pays special attention for jobs with an SLA and sends alert emails for sla misses. SLA misses are also recorded in the database for future reference. All tasks that share the same SLA time get bundled in a single email, sent soon after that time. SLA notification are sent once and only once for each task instance.
execution_timeout (datetime.timedelta) -- max time allowed for the execution of this task instance, if it goes beyond it will raise and fail.
on_failure_callback (TaskStateChangeCallback) -- a function to be called when a task instance of this task fails. a context dictionary is passed as a single parameter to this function. Context contains references to related objects to the task instance and is documented under the macros section of the API.
on_execute_callback (TaskStateChangeCallback) -- much like the on_failure_callback except that it is executed right before the task is executed.
on_retry_callback (TaskStateChangeCallback) -- much like the on_failure_callback except that it is executed when retries occur.
on_success_callback (TaskStateChangeCallback) -- much like the on_failure_callback except that it is executed when the task succeeds.
trigger_rule (str) -- defines the rule by which dependencies are applied for the task to get triggered. Options are: { all_success | all_failed | all_done | one_success | one_failed | none_failed | none_failed_or_skipped | none_skipped | dummy} default is all_success. Options can be set as string or using the constants defined in the static class airflow.utils.TriggerRule
resources (dict) -- A map of resource parameter names (the argument names of the Resources constructor) to their values.
run_as_user (str) -- unix username to impersonate while running the task
task_concurrency (int) -- When set, a task will be able to limit the concurrent runs across execution_dates
executor_config (dict) --
Additional task-level configuration parameters that are interpreted by a specific executor. Parameters are namespaced by the name of executor.

Example: to run this task in a specific docker container through the KubernetesExecutor
```
MyOperator(...,
    executor_config={
        "KubernetesExecutor":
            {"image": "myCustomDockerImage"}
    }
)
```
do_xcom_push (bool) -- if True, an XCom is pushed containing the Operator's result
doc (str) -- Add documentation or notes to your Task objects that is visible in Task Instance details View in the Webserver
doc_md (str) -- Add documentation (in Markdown format) or notes to your Task objects that is visible in Task Instance details View in the Webserver
doc_rst (str) -- Add documentation (in RST format) or notes to your Task objects that is visible in Task Instance details View in the Webserver
doc_json (str) -- Add documentation (in JSON format) or notes to your Task objects that is visible in Task Instance details View in the Webserver
doc_yaml (str) -- Add documentation (in YAML format) or notes to your Task objects that is visible in Task Instance details View in the Webserver

Make an XCom available for tasks to pull.

Parameters

context -- Execution Context Dictionary
key (str) -- A key for the XCom
value (any pickleable object) -- A value for the XCom. The value is pickled and stored in the database.
execution_date (datetime) -- if provided, the XCom will not be visible until this date. This can be used, for example, to send a message to a task on a future date without it being immediately visible.

Type

Any

static xcom_pull(context: Any, task_ids: Optional[List[str]] = None, dag_id: Optional[str] = None, key: str = XCOM_RETURN_KEY, include_prior_dates: Optional[bool] = None)[source]¶

Pull XComs that optionally meet certain criteria.

The default value for key limits the search to XComs that were returned by other tasks (as opposed to those that were pushed manually). To remove this filter, pass key=None (or any desired value).

If a single task_id string is provided, the result is the value of the most recent matching XCom from that task_id. If multiple task_ids are provided, a tuple of matching values is returned. None is returned whenever no matches are found.

Parameters

context -- Execution Context Dictionary
key (str) -- A key for the XCom. If provided, only XComs with matching keys will be returned. The default key is 'return_value', also available as a constant XCOM_RETURN_KEY. This key is automatically given to XComs returned by tasks (as opposed to being pushed manually). To remove the filter, pass key=None.
task_ids (str or iterable of strings (representing task_ids)) -- Only XComs from tasks with matching ids will be pulled. Can pass None to remove the filter.
dag_id (str) -- If provided, only pulls XComs from this DAG. If None (default), the DAG of the calling task is used.
include_prior_dates (bool) -- If False, only XComs from the current execution_date are returned. If True, XComs from previous dates are returned as well.

Type

Any

extra_links(self)[source]¶: @property: extra links for the task

Parameters

dttm -- The datetime parsed execution date for the URL being searched for
link_name -- The name of the link we're looking for the URL for. Should be one of the options specified in extra_links

Returns

A URL

make sure they have same length.

chain(t1, [t2, t3], [t4, t5], t6)

is equivalent to:

  / -> t2 -> t4 \
t1               -> t6
  \ -> t3 -> t5 /

Set downstream dependencies for all tasks in from_tasks to all tasks in to_tasks.

cross_downstream(from_tasks=[t1, t2, t3], to_tasks=[t4, t5, t6])

is equivalent to:

t1 ---> t4
   \ /
