Overview
Tasks can be declared as Python functions annotated with @task.
Programming Model
Functions annotated with @task are executed when the corresponding task instance is executed.
from airflow.decorators import dag, task
from datetime import datetime
@task
def task_x(ti=None):
print(f"executing task X, task instance {ti}")
@dag(
[...]
)
def some_dag():
@task
def task_a(ti=None):
print(f"executing task A, task instance {ti}")
@task
def task_b(ti=None):
print(f"executing task B, task instance {ti}")
task_a() >> task_b() >> task_x()
If the function's first argument is ti, a reference to the corresponding task instance it will be passed with it. An equivalent key is task_instance.
