Airflow - Script does not execute when triggered - airflow

Question

I have a airflow script that tries to insert data from one table to another, I am using a Amazon Redshift DB. The given below script when triggered does not execute. Task_id status remains as 'no status' in the Graph view and no other error is shown.

Could anyone assist to find where the problem could be. Thanks

Answer 1

Instead of having a PythonOperator you need to have a BashOperator and a PythonOperator.
You are getting the error because PythonOperator doesn't have a bash_command argument
t1 = PythonOperator(
task_id='DBConnect',
python_callable=db_login,
dag=dag
)
t2 = BashOperator(
task_id='Run Python File',
bash_command='python3 ~/airflow/dags/sample.py',
dag=dag
)
t1 >> t2

Answer 2

To the answer kaxil provided I would like to extend that you should be using an IDE to develop for Airflow. PyCharm works fine for me.
That being said, please make sure to look up the available fields in the docs next time. For PythonOperator, see the docs here:
https://airflow.apache.org/code.html#airflow.operators.PythonOperator
Signature looks like:
class airflow.operators.PythonOperator(python_callable, op_args=None, op_kwargs=None, provide_context=False, templates_dict=None, templates_exts=None, *args, **kwargs)
and for BashOperator, see the docs here:
https://airflow.apache.org/code.html#airflow.operators.BashOperator
Signature is:
class airflow.operators.BashOperator(bash_command, xcom_push=False, env=None, output_encoding='utf-8', *args, **kwargs)
Highlights are from me to show the parameters you have been using.
Make sure to dig through the documentation a bit before using an Operator is my recommendation.
EDIT
After seeing the code update there is one thing left:
Make sure when defining python_callable in a task that you do so without brackets, otherwise the code will be called (which is very unintuitive if you don't know about it). So your code should look like this:
t1 = PythonOperator(
task_id='DWH_Connect',
python_callable=job_run,
dag=dag)
