Bolke de Bruin updated AIRFLOW-1710:
------------------------------------
Issue Type: Sub-task (was: Task)
Parent: AIRFLOW-288
> Add timezone setting to Airflow DAG
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: AIRFLOW-1710
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-1710
> Project: Apache Airflow
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: DAG
> Affects Versions: 1.9.0
> Reporter: Chris Riccomini
> Assignee: Bolke de Bruin
>
> We have some use cases where we'd like to run DAGs pegged to a specific
> timezone.
> Customers want things to happen in their time zone. If they have DST, it's
> not a constant offset from UTC. If they aren't in the US, their DST isn't a
> constant offset from California's DST (where we run). GB, for example.
> One way to solve this would be to have the DAG start with PythonOperator task
> that calculates the difference between UTC and the expected timezone, and
> sleeps for that amount of time.
> Another (cleaner?) way would be to add a field to the DAG model that allows
> the DAG author to specify the timezone that the DAG should be scheduled in.
> For example, we could have our Airflow box continue to run on UTC, but
> schedule a specific DAG for Pacific/US, which would adjust according to
> daylight savings time. We could schedule other DAGs to run on GB DST, etc.
