airflow-code-editor 8.3.0

Apache Airflow code editor and file manager

Airflow Code Editor Plugin

This plugin for Apache Airflow allows you to edit DAGs directly within your browser, providing a seamless and efficient workflow for managing your pipelines. Offering a user-friendly file management interface within designated directories, it facilitates effortless editing, uploading, and downloading of files. With Git support enabled, DAGs are stored in a Git repository, enabling users to explore Git history, review local modifications, and commit changes.

System Requirements

• Airflow Versions
  • 2.x or 3.x
• git Versions (git is not required if git support is disabled)
  • 2.0 or newer

   export AIRFLOW__CODE_EDITOR__MOUNT2='name=tmp,path=/tmp'

REST API

Airflow Code Editor provides a REST API. Through this API, users can interact with the application programmatically, enabling automation, data retrieval, and integration with other software.

For detailed information on how to use each endpoint, refer to the API documentation.

REST API Authentication

The API authentication is inherited from the Apache Airflow.

If you want to check which auth backend is currently set, you can use airflow config get-value api auth_backends command as in the example below.

$ airflow config get-value api auth_backends
airflow.api.auth.backend.basic_auth

For details on configuring the authentication, see API Authorization.
