Release Notes¶
Apache Airflow Helm Chart Releases
Run helm repo update
before upgrading the chart to the latest version.
Airflow Helm Chart 1.6.0 (2022-05-20)¶
Significant Changes¶
Default Airflow image is updated to 2.3.0
(#23386)¶
The default Airflow image that is used with the Chart is now 2.3.0
, previously it was 2.2.4
.
ingress.enabled
is deprecated¶
Instead of having a single flag to control ingress resources for both the webserver and flower, there
are now separate flags to control them individually, ingress.web.enabled
and ingress.flower.enabled
.
ingress.enabled
is now deprecated, but will still continue to control them both.
Flower disabled by default¶
Flower is no longer enabled by default when using CeleryExecutor. If you’d like to deploy it, set
flower.enabed
to true in your values file.

This section configured the authentication backend for the Airflow API but used the same values as the Airflow default setting, which made it unnecessary to declare the same again.
New Features¶

Support for
priorityClassName
(#20794)Add
envFrom
to the Flower deployment (#21401)Add annotations to cleanup pods (#21484)

Airflow Helm Chart 1.4.0, (2022-01-10)¶
Significant changes¶
Default Airflow image is updated to 2.2.3
¶
The default Airflow image that is used with the Chart is now 2.2.3
, previously it was 2.2.1
.
ingress.web.hosts
and ingress.flower.hosts
parameters data type has changed and ingress.web.tls
and ingress.flower.tls
have moved¶
ingress.web.hosts
and ingress.flower.hosts
have had their types have been changed from an array of strings to an array of objects. ingress.web.tls
and ingress.flower.tls
can now be specified per host in ingress.web.hosts
and ingress.flower.hosts
respectively.
The old parameter names will continue to work, however support for them will be removed in a future release so please update your values file.
Fixed precedence of nodeSelector
, affinity
and tolerations
params¶
nodeSelector
, affinity
and tolerations
params precedence has been fixed on all components. Now component-specific params
(e.g. webserver.affinity
) takes precedence over the global param (e.g. affinity
).
Default KubernetesExecutor
worker affinity removed¶
Previously a default affinity was added to KubernetesExecutor
workers to spread the workers out across nodes. This default affinity is no
longer set because, in general, there is no reason to spread task-specific workers across nodes.
Changes in webserver and flower NetworkPolicy
default ports¶
The defaults for webserver.networkPolicy.ingress.ports
and flower.networkPolicy.ingress.ports
moved away from using named ports to numerical ports to avoid issues with OpenShift.
Increase default livenessProbe
timeoutSeconds
for scheduler and triggerer¶
The default timeout for the scheduler and triggerer livenessProbe
has been increased from 10 seconds to 20 seconds.

), previously it was 2.1.4
(which is Python 3.6
).
The triggerer component requires Python 3.7
. If you require Python 3.6
and Airflow 2.2.0
or later, use a 3.6
based image and set triggerer.enabled=False
in your values.

Significant Changes¶
Run helm repo update
before upgrading the chart to the latest version.
Default Airflow version is updated to 2.1.2
¶
The default Airflow version that is installed with the Chart is now 2.1.2
, previously it was 2.0.2
.
Helm 2 no longer supported¶
This chart has dropped support for Helm 2 as it has been deprecated and no longer receiving security updates since November 2020.
webserver.extraNetworkPolicies

parameters have been renamed¶
webserver.extraNetworkPolicies

Removed dags.gitSync.root
, dags.gitSync.dest
, and dags.gitSync.excludeWebserver
parameters¶
The dags.gitSync.root
and dags.gitSync.dest
parameters did not provide any useful behaviors to chart users so they have been removed.
If you have them set in your values file you can safely remove them.
The dags.gitSync.excludeWebserver
parameter was mistakenly included in the charts values.schema.json
. If you have it set in your values file,
you can safely remove it.
nodeSelector
, affinity
and tolerations
on migrateDatabaseJob
and createUserJob
jobs¶
The migrateDatabaseJob
