    """
    A base class for creating operators with branching functionality, like to BranchPythonOperator.

    Users should create a subclass from this operator and implement the function
    `choose_branch(self, context)`. This should run whatever business logic
    is needed to determine the branch, and return either the task_id for
    a single task (as a str) or a list of task_ids.

    The operator will continue with the returned task_id(s), and all other
    tasks directly downstream of this operator will be skipped.
