             Summary: allow gunicorn config to be passed to airflow webserver
                 Key: AIRFLOW-571
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-571
             Project: Apache Airflow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: webserver
            Reporter: Dennis O'Brien


I have run into an issue when running airflow webserver behind a load balancer 
where redirects result in https requests forwarded to http.  I ran into a 
similar issue with Caravel which also uses gunicorn.  
https://github.com/airbnb/caravel/issues/978  From that issue:

{quote}
When gunicorn is run on a different machine from the load balancer (nginx or 
ELB), it needs to be told explicitly to trust the X-Forwarded-* headers sent. 
gunicorn takes an option --forwarded-allow-ips which can either be a comma 
separated list of ip addresses, or "*" to trust all.
{quote}

I don't see a simple way to inject custom arguments to the gunicorn call in 
`webserver()`.  Rather than making a special case to set --forwarded-allow-ips, 
it would be nice if the caller of `airflow webserver` could pass an additional 
gunicorn config file.

The call to gunicorn is already including a -c and I'm not sure gunicorn will 
take multiple configs, so maybe we have to parse the config and include each 
name=value on the gunicorn command line.  Any suggestions on how best to allow 
this?
