G. Geijteman commented on AIRFLOW-2873:
---------------------------------------
[~ashb]
Thank you, I could now run the installation phase without a problem.
I suppose the Quick start will be fixed when 1.10 is out of RC then.
One small thing, I do get a warning when I try:
{code:java}
airflow initdb{code}
Results in:
{code:java}
~/project/airflow/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/airflow/models.py:154:
DeprecationWarning: The 'warn' method is deprecated, use 'warning' instead
exc_info=1)
WARNI [airflow.utils.log.logging_mixin.LoggingMixin] cryptography not found -
values will not be stored encrypted. Traceback (most recent call last): File
"~/project/airflow/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/airflow/models.py", line
147, in get_fernet from cryptography.fernet import Fernet, InvalidToken
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'cryptography'
WARNI [airflow.utils.log.logging_mixin.LoggingMixin] Could not import
KubernetesPodOperator: No module named 'kubernetes' WARNI
[airflow.utils.log.logging_mixin.LoggingMixin] Install kubernetes dependencies
with: pip install airflow['kubernetes']{code}
It's cool to see Kubernetes is supported, but it now seems a requirement for
the database init. That seems a little silly. I suppose that's still work in
progress on the master?

> binascii.Error: Incorrect padding{code}
> Which after some googling leads to the conclusion that the
> ~/project/airflow/airflow.cfg fernet_key field is not set to the correct
> value.
> *Feature request:*
> _Have the setup automatically generate a valid fernet key for the user._
> The fact that this page exists: [https://bcb.github.io/airflow/fernet-key]
> suggests this could easily be a part of the package.
> I understand that this project is in incubator phase, but I would say having
> a quick start that is not working as-is will discourage users from trying out
> this project. Thank you for considering.
