airflow start_date confusion:

[harish singh]

These are the default args to my DAG.
I am trying to run a standard hourly job (basically, at the end of
this hour, process last hours data)
I noticed that my pipeline is 1 hour late.

For some reason, I am messing up with my start_date I guess.
What is the best practice for setting up start_date?


scheduling_start_date = (datetime.utcnow()).replace(minute=0,
second=0, microsecond=0) +
datetime.timedelta(minutes=15)default_schedule_interval =
datetime.timedelta(minutes=60)default_args = {

    'owner': 'airflow',
    'depends_on_past': False,
    'start_date': scheduling_start_date,
    'email': ['airf...@airflow.com'],
    'email_on_failure': False,
    'email_on_retry': False,
    'retries': 2,
    'retry_delay': default_retries_delay,    'schedule_interval'=
default_schedule_interval

    # 'queue': 'bash_queue',
    # 'pool': 'backfill',
    # 'priority_weight': 10,
    # 'end_date': datetime(2016, 1, 1),
}
