We've created the operators, hooks, macros and executors we needed, but we made sure that this part of Airflow is extensible. New operators, hooks and operators are very welcomed!
Airflow could always use better documentation,
whether as part of the official Airflow docs,
in docstrings, docs/*.rst
or even on the web as blog posts or
articles.
The best way to send feedback is to file an issue on Github.
If you are proposing a feature:
- Explain in detail how it would work.
- Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
- Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome :)
Install development requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Tests can then be run with:
./run_unit_tests.sh
Lint the project with:
flake8 changes tests
Generate the documentation with:
cd docs && ./build.sh
Before you submit a pull request from your forked repo, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests, either as doctests, unit tests, or both.
- If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated as part of the same PR. Doc string are often sufficient, make sure to follow the sphinx compatible standards.
- The pull request should work for Python 2.6, 2.7, and ideally python 3.3.
from __future__ import
will be required in every.py
file soon. - Code will be reviewed by re running the unittests, flake8 and syntax should be as rigorous as the core Python project.
- Please rebase and resolve all conflicts before submitting.
