Introduction

In this blog, I'm going to tell you how to schedule your project with Apache Airflow, so that you don't have to trigger your function/projects on your own, it will be taken care of by DAGs.

Brief Introduction of Airflow and DAGs

Apache Airflow is used for the scheduling and orchestration of data pipelines or workflows. Orchestration of data pipelines refers to the sequencing, coordination, scheduling, and managing of complex data pipelines from diverse sources.

DAGs (Directed Acyclic Graphs) are a set of tasks to be executed at some interval as scheduled. It is a collection of all the tasks you want to run, organized in a way that reflects their relationships and dependencies.

Codes

To follow the below codes, you need to check out my previous blog 'Web Scrapping demo project' as I will be taking reference of functions inside that project.

Below are the codes for DAGs...

from datetime import datetime, timedelta
from airflow import DAG
from airflow.operators.python import PythonOperator
from web_scrap import web_scrap  # import function from previous project

default_args = {
    'owner': 'xyz-web-scrap',
    'depends_on_past': False,
    'start_date': datetime(2022, 12, 12),
    'email': 'xyz@gmail.com',
    'email_on_failure': False,
    'email_on_retry': False,
    'retries': 0,  # removing retries to not call insert duplicates into BigQuery
    'retry_delay': timedelta(minutes=5),
}
dag = DAG(
    dag_id='scrap-dag-ast',
    description='DAG made for web scrap project',
    default_args=default_args,
    schedule_interval='* * * * *',
    tags=['data-pipeline-dag'],
    max_active_tasks=3
)

with dag:
    run_dag = PythonOperator(
        task_id='complete_web_scrap',
        python_callable=web_scrap,
        dag=dag,
    )

run_dag

If you want to insert an email notification in the above codes so that you can get notifications then use the below codes...

import smtplib
def send_mail():
    server = smtplib.SMTP_SSL('smtp.gmail.com',465)
    server.ehlo()
    server.starttls()
    server.ehlo()
    server.login('xyz@gmail.com','xxxxxxxxxxxxx') # use temporary passwords from google passwords

    subject = "abcdef......."
    body = "Your words........."
    msg = f"Subject: {subject}\n\n{body}"
    print('This mail going to be sent')
    server.sendmail(
        'asdfgh@gmail.com',
        'bvcxz@gmail.com',
        msg
    )
    print('mail has sent')
    server.quit()
