airflow-docker-compose-example

Example implementation running Airflow as separate services with docker-compose.

This builds a docker container with a version of airflow that is built from a specific github repository/branch/commit. Edit this as you see fit.

Requirements

  • docker
  • docker-compose

Components

  • airflow webserver
  • airflow scheduler
  • airflow flower
  • airflow worker
  • mysql

Starting and Stopping the stack

First, make sure you are in the root directory of this repo.

Bring up the stack:

$ docker-compose up --force-recreate --build

The servers are now available here:

Bring the stack down:

$ docker-compose down --volumes

Building the Docker container

The Docker image will be built automatically with the command to bring up the stack, but if you really want to build it manually...

$ docker build --tag airflow:github .

Debugging

To get shell in the running docker container, first list the running processes.

$ docker ps

Now attach to any of the Airflow container processes you want to debug:

$ docker exec -it airflowdockercomposeexample_airflow_scheduler_1 bash
airflow@ab346e581b31:~$
