Summary: Feature Request to validate if a Airflow Connection Hook
from UI
Key: AIRFLOW-5564
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-5564
Project: Apache Airflow
Issue Type: Wish
Components: celery, webserver, worker
Affects Versions: 1.10.2
Reporter: Sampath
Feature Request to validate if a Airflow Connection Hook from UI, just like
mysql workbench lets you test is a mysql connection is valid or not before
saving.
In a realtime scenario(airflow(master & scheduler) & 2-4 celery worker nodes)
for each airflow hook, at each worker node and in each environment we had to
this test.
In future as we grow, there will be more connection hooks & this will increase
our workload of simple yet repetitive works.
So requesting following
# *Airflow Connection Hooks* should have an option to validate them. At least
for simple hooks like SSH & Mysql.
# These tests should happen on each (Celery) *Worker* node.
Since airflow uses paramiko, sqlachemy internally(I think) this is problem can
be quickly solvable for SSH & Mysql Hooks(starting point). If there any
development happening in this area, kindly please point me there & then close
this request.
