Feng Lu commented on AIRFLOW-15: -------------------------------- [~criccomini] [~barrywhart] Unfortunately we don't have feature parity between the two yet, but it's expected that all GCP services will be supported in google-cloud-python. Checked with our internal team, it's recommended that google-cloud-python should be used whenever possible. Specifically for Airflow GCP connectors, I would propose: - add google-cloud-python dependency as part of gcp_api. - new operators shall base on google-cloud-python if possible. - we (or anyone outside google) can migrate existing GCP operators when the underlying GCP service is available in google-cloud-python. WDYT? Feel free to assign this JIRA issue to me for process tracking. > Remove GCloud from Airflow > -------------------------- > > Key: AIRFLOW-15 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-15 > Project: Apache Airflow > Issue Type: Task > Components: gcp > Reporter: Chris Riccomini > Assignee: Chris Riccomini > Labels: gcp > > After speaking with Google, there was some concern about using the > [gcloud-python|https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcloud-python] library > for Airflow. There are several concerns: > # It's not clear (even to people at Google) what this library is, who owns > it, etc. > # It does not support all services (the way > [google-api-python-client|https://github.com/google/google-api-python-client] > does). > # There are compatibility issues between google-api-python-client and > gcloudpython. > We currently support both, after libraries depending on which package you you > install: {{airfow[gcp_api]}} or {{airflow[gcloud]}}. This ticket is to remove > the {{airflow[gcloud]}} packaged, and all associated code. > The main associated code, afaik, is the use of the {{gcloud}} library in the > Google cloud storage hooks/operators--specifically for Google cloud storage > Airfow logging. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
