jack commented on AIRFLOW-883:
------------------------------
I can confirm that the described issue still relevant in 1.10.3
Switching from context manager back to dag=dag resolved the issue.
For me it happened only on PythonOperator which calls a python callable and in
the python callable tried to call another Operator.
> Assigning operator to DAG via bitwise composition does not pickup default args

> Key: AIRFLOW-883
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-883
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: models
> Reporter: Daniel Huang
> Assignee: Jeremiah Lowin
> Priority: Minor
>
> This is only the case when the operator does not specify {{dag=dag}} and is
> not initialized within a DAG's context manager (due to
> https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow/blob/fb0c5775cda4f84c07d8d5c0e6277fc387c172e6/airflow/utils/decorators.py#L50)
> Example:
> {code}
> default_args = {
> 'owner': 'airflow',
> 'start_date': datetime(2017, 2, 1)
> }
> dag = DAG('my_dag', default_args=default_args)
> dummy = DummyOperator(task_id='dummy')
> dag >> dummy
> {code}
> This will raise a {{Task is missing the start_date parameter}}. I _think_
> this should probably be allowed because I assume the purpose of supporting
> {{dag >> op}} was to allow delayed assignment of an operator to a DAG.
> I believe to fix this, on assignment, we would need to go back and go through
> dag.default_args to see if any of those attrs weren't explicitly set on
> task...not the cleanest.
