airflux 1.0.0

A simple Airflow installer and tmux sesssion manager

Airflux

Airflux is a very simple installer and tmux session manager for Airflow.

It exists for those of us who deploy Airflow a lot; maybe you're developing an operator and need to test it by hand on Airflow 1.3, or you manage a collection of Airflow pipelines and need a quick way to start and stop local versions of them.

Getting started

Install airflux:

pip install airflux

Airflux uses constraints files to install Airflow for your version of Python. This command will list the versions of Airflow with available constraints files.

airflux versions

You will probably want to make a directory for your deployment. The script doesn't do this for you.

mkdir my-airflow-deployment && cd my-airflow-deployment

To download the constraints file and create a local Python environment for Airflow, specify the version number to airflux new:

airflux new 2.3.3

After the installation is complete, start Airflux in a tmux session:

airflux start

Once inside the tmux session, you can exit it and shut down Airflow:

airflux stop

To install Airflow into your current directory
