aircheck 0.1.2

Tool and pre-commit hook airflow DAG integrity validation

aircheck

A tool for airflow DAG integrity validation.

The aim of the project is two-fold:

• enable the users to run checks that would fail locally, before they fail in the airflow UI
• allow to enforce standards related to certain DAG properties.

The first part involves:

• checking if modules containing DAGs are properly loaded (i.e. no ImportErrors etc.)
• checking for cycles in DAGs
• checking for duplicated DAGs

The latter allows users to enforce that:

• all DAGs have IDs starting with a certain prefix (e.g. indicating the team developing the DAG)
• DAG IDs don't contain whitespaces (those can confuse the airflow UI)
• every DAG has at least one task associated with it (i.e. there are no 'empty' DAGs).

Installation

PyPI

aircheck can be installed with pip.

pip install aircheck

From source

Another option is to install aircheck from the source GitHub repo.

git clone https://github.com/AleksanderWWW/aircheck.git
cd aircheck && pip install .

Optionally install dev requirements, like pytest, ruff etc.

cd aircheck && pip install .[dev]

Usage

After a successful installation, the project can be used in three main ways.

Commandline tool

aircheck ./dags/dag1.py ./dags/dag2.py --check-whitespace --dag-id-prefix <prefix>

Pre-commit hook

- repo: https://github.com/AleksanderWWW/aircheck
  rev: v0.1.2
  hooks:
    - id: aircheck
      args: ["--check-empty-dags", "--dag-path" "<non-standard path>"]

Python package

from aircheck.core.checks import check_for_duplicated_dags, check_for_empty_dag
from aircheck.core.load import load_dags

dags = load_dags(["./dags/dag1.py", "./dags/dag2.py"])

check_for_duplicated_dags(dags)

for dag in dags:
    check_for_empty_dag(dag)
