Airflow Operations

Use af commands to query, manage, and troubleshoot Airflow workflows.

Astro CLI

The Astro CLI is the recommended way to run Airflow locally and deploy to production. It provides a containerized Airflow environment that works out of the box:

# Initialize a new project
astro dev init

# Start local Airflow (webserver at http://localhost:8080)
astro dev start

# Parse DAGs to catch errors quickly (no need to start Airflow)
astro dev parse
