Setup Airflow on Mac

Setup on Mac

brew is mandatory!

brew install python python3
pip install airflow

mkdir ~/airflow

# airflow needs a home, ~/airflow is the default,
# but you can lay foundation somewhere else if you prefer
# (optional)
export AIRFLOW_HOME=~/airflow

# install from pypi using pip
pip install airflow

# initialize the database
cd ~/airflow && airflow initdb

# start the web server, default port is 8080
cd ~/airflow && airflow webserver -p 8080
