| Running Airflow with systemd |
| ============================ |
| |
| Airflow can integrate with systemd based systems. This makes watching your |
| daemons easy as ``systemd`` can take care of restarting a daemon on failures. |
| |
| In the ``scripts/systemd`` directory, you can find unit files that |
| have been tested on Redhat based systems. These files can be used as-is by copying them over to |
| ``/usr/lib/systemd/system``. |
| |
| The following **assumptions** have been made while creating these unit files: |
| |
| #. Airflow runs as the following ``user:group`` ``airflow:airflow``. |
| #. Airflow runs on a Redhat based system. |
| |
| If this is not the case, appropriate changes will need to be made. |
| |
| Please **note** that environment configuration is picked up from ``/etc/sysconfig/airflow``. |
| |
| An example file is supplied within ``scripts/systemd``. |
| You can also define configuration at :envvar:`AIRFLOW_HOME` or :envvar:`AIRFLOW_CONFIG`. |
