air-labs-helpers 0.1.1

Shared helper utilities for Airflow Xtra plugins.

🧰 Air-Labs Helpers

The Helpers module provides shared utilities used across all Air-Labs plugins.
It standardizes how plugins interact with the Airflow REST API and connection management.

---

🔧 Features

• Centralized API client (AirflowClient) for REST API interaction
• Built-in authentication support using /auth/token
• Simplified connection management via Airflow’s conn_id
• Consistent response formatting and error handling

---

🧮 Usage Example

from air_labs_helpers.client import AirflowClient

client = AirflowClient(conn_id="airflow_api_conn")
report = client.pause_dags(name_prefix="etl_")
print(report)

Connection Setup (Required)

Before using the client, create a connection in the Airflow UI → Admin → Connections.

Field	Description	Example
Conn Id	Used in code	airflow_api_conn
Conn Type	http or https	http
Host	Airflow Webserver	http://localhost:8080
Login	Username / Service Account	admin
Password	Password or API token	mysecret

---

How It Works

1. Loads the Airflow connection from conn_id
2. Authenticates via /auth/token
3. Sends REST API requests to /api/v1/...
4. Returns structured results
