Roster commented on AIRFLOW-4547:
---------------------------------
[~alexabraham] your scenario is specific to your needs. I work with negative
weights and it's perfect for me.
I think tough there can be a solution to satisfy everyone. Allowing in
airflow.cfg to config max_priority_weight and min_priority_weight that way any
one can config it according to his own needs. The default can be unlimited for
each one so it will be backward compatible.
> Negative priority_weight should not be permitted

> Key: AIRFLOW-4547
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-4547
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: operators
> Affects Versions: 1.10.3
> Reporter: Teresa Martyny
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Airflow allows a dev to assign a negative priority_weight to a task. However,
> the Airflow code does math to determine the priority_weight on its own in
> models.py#priority_weight_total on line 2796
> This makes the final priority_weight wrong in the end. Airflow should raise
> an error if an operator has priority_weight assigned to a negative number at
> any point.
