Macros reference
================

Variables and macros can be used in templates (see the :ref:`jinja-templating` section)

The following come for free out of the box with Airflow.
Additional custom macros can be added globally through :ref:`plugins`, or at a DAG level through the ``DAG.user_defined_macros`` argument.

Default Variables
-----------------
The Airflow engine passes a few variables by default that are accessible
in all templates

=====================================   ====================================

``{{ prev_ds }}``                       the previous execution date as ``YYYY-MM-DD``
                                        if ``{{ ds }}`` is ``2018-01-08`` and ``schedule_interval`` is ``@weekly``,
                                        ``{{ prev_ds }}`` will be ``2018-01-01``

``{{ ts_nodash }}``                     same as ``ts`` without ``-``, ``:`` and TimeZone info. Example: ``20180101T000000``
``{{ ts_nodash_with_tz }}``             same as ``ts`` without ``-`` and ``:``. Example: ``20180101T000000+0000``
``{{ execution_date }}``                the execution_date (`pendulum.Pendulum`_)

``{{ macros }}``                        a reference to the macros package, described below
``{{ task_instance }}``                 the task_instance object
``{{ end_date }}``                      same as ``{{ ds }}``
``{{ latest_date }}``                   same as ``{{ ds }}``
``{{ ti }}``                            same as ``{{ task_instance }}``
``{{ params }}``                        a reference to the user-defined params dictionary which can be overridden by
                                        the dictionary passed through ``trigger_dag -c`` if you enabled
                                        ``dag_run_conf_overrides_params` in ``airflow.cfg``
``{{ var.value.my_var }}``              global defined variables represented as a dictionary
``{{ var.json.my_var.path }}``          global defined variables represented as a dictionary
                                        with deserialized JSON object, append the path to the
                                        key within the JSON object
``{{ task_instance_key_str }}``         a unique, human-readable key to the task instance
                                        formatted ``{dag_id}_{task_id}_{ds}``
``{{ conf }}``                          the full configuration object located at
                                        ``airflow.configuration.conf`` which
                                        represents the content of your
                                        ``airflow.cfg``
``{{ run_id }}``                        the ``run_id`` of the current DAG run
``{{ dag_run }}``                       a reference to the DagRun object
``{{ test_mode }}``                     whether the task instance was called using
                                        the CLI's test subcommand
=====================================   ====================================

Note that you can access the object's attributes and methods with simple
dot notation. Here are some examples of what is possible:
``{{ task.owner }}``, ``{{ task.task_id }}``, ``{{ ti.hostname }}``, ...
Refer to the models documentation for more information on the objects'
attributes and methods.

The ``var`` template variable allows you to access variables defined in Airflow's
UI. You can access them as either plain-text or JSON. If you use JSON, you are
also able to walk nested structures, such as dictionaries like:
``{{ var.json.my_dict_var.key1 }}``.

It is also possible to fetch a variable by string if needed with
``{{ var.value.get('my.var', 'fallback') }}`` or
``{{ var.json.get('my.dict.var', {'key1': 'val1'}) }}``. Defaults can be
supplied in case the variable does not exist.

Macros
------
Macros are a way to expose objects to your templates and live under the
``macros`` namespace in your templates.

A few commonly used libraries and methods are made available.
