# Astro Local Environment

This skill helps you manage your local Airflow environment using the Astro CLI.

Two modes: **Docker** (default, uses containers) and **Standalone** (Docker-free, uses a local venv — requires Airflow 3 + `uv`).

> **To set up a new project**, see the **setting-up-astro-project** skill.
> **When Airflow is running**, use MCP tools from **authoring-dags** and **testing-dags** skills.

---

## Start / Stop / Restart (Docker)

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

# Stop containers (preserves data)
astro dev stop

# Kill and remove volumes (clean slate)
astro dev kill

# Restart all containers
astro dev restart

# Restart specific component
astro dev restart --scheduler
astro dev restart --webserver
```

**Default credentials:** admin / admin

**Restart after modifying:** `requirements.txt`, `packages.txt`, `Dockerfile`

> **Standalone mode?** See the next section.

---

## Standalone Mode

Docker-free local development. Runs Airflow directly on your machine in a `.venv/` managed by `uv`.

**Requirements:** Airflow 3 (runtime 3.x), `uv` on PATH. Not supported on Windows.

> Plain `astro dev init` already pins a runtime 3.x image, so no version flag is needed. See **setting-up-astro-project** for project initialization.

### Start

```bash
# One-time: set standalone as default mode
astro config set dev.mode standalone

# Or use the flag per invocation
astro dev start --standalone
```

| Flag | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `--foreground` / `-f` | Stream output in foreground |
| `--port` / `-p` | Override webserver port (default: 8080) |
| `--no-proxy` | Disable reverse proxy |

### Stop / Kill / Restart

```bash
# Stop (preserves .venv)
astro dev stop

# Kill (removes .venv and .astro/standalone/ — clean slate)
astro dev kill

# Restart (preserves .venv for fast restart, use -k to kill first)
astro dev restart
```

> If you used `--standalone` on start instead of setting the config, pass `--standalone` on every subsequent command too (stop, kill, restart, bash, run, logs, etc.).

**State locations:** venv in `.venv/`, database and logs in `.astro/standalone/`, DAGs from `dags/`.

---

## Reverse Proxy

Run multiple Airflow projects locally without port conflicts. Works in both Docker and standalone modes.

Each project gets a hostname like `<project-name>.localhost:6563`. Visit `http://localhost:6563` to see all active projects.

```bash
# Check proxy status and active routes
astro dev proxy status

# Force-stop proxy (auto-restarts on next astro dev start)
astro dev proxy stop
```

| Config | Command |
|--------|---------|
| Change proxy port | `astro config set proxy.port <port>` |
| Disable per-start | `astro dev start --no-proxy` |

Default proxy port: **6563**

---

## Check Status

```bash
astro dev ps
```

---

## View Logs

```bash
# All logs
astro dev logs

# Specific component
astro dev logs --scheduler
astro dev logs --webserver

# Follow in real-time
astro dev logs -f
```

**Standalone:** `astro dev logs` works the same but shows a unified log (no per-component filtering).

---

## Run Airflow CLI Commands

```bash
# Open a shell with Airflow environment
astro dev bash

# Run Airflow CLI commands
astro dev run airflow info
astro dev run airflow dags list
```

**Standalone:** Same commands work — `bash` opens a venv-activated shell, `run` executes in the venv.

---

## Querying the Airflow API

Use `astro api airflow` to query a running local Airflow instance. Prefer operation IDs over URL paths.

**Defaults:** localhost:8080, admin/admin (auto-detected). Override with `--api-url`, `--username`, `--password`.

### Discovery

```bash
# List all endpoints
astro api airflow ls

# Filter by keyword
astro api airflow ls dags
astro api airflow ls task

# Show params and schema for an operation
astro api airflow describe get_dag
```

### Key Flags

| Flag | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `-p key=value` | Path parameters |
| `-F key=value` | Body/query fields (auto-converts booleans/numbers) |
| `-q` / `--jq` | jq filter on response |
| `--paginate` | Fetch all pages |
| `-X` / `--method` | Override HTTP method |
| `--generate` | Output curl command instead of executing |

### DAGs

```bash
# List all DAGs
astro api airflow get_dags

# Filter by pattern (SQL LIKE — use % wildcards)
astro api airflow get_dags -F dag_id_pattern=%etl%

# Get a specific DAG
astro api airflow get_dag -p dag_id=my_dag

# Get full details (schedule, params, etc.)
astro api airflow get_dag_details -p dag_id=my_dag

# Pause / unpause
astro api airflow patch_dag -p dag_id=my_dag -F is_paused=true
astro api airflow patch_dag -p dag_id=my_dag -F is_paused=false

# View DAG source code
astro api airflow get_dag_source -p dag_id=my_dag

# Check import errors
astro api airflow get_import_errors
```

### DAG Runs

```bash
# List runs for a DAG
astro api airflow get_dag_runs -p dag_id=my_dag

# Trigger a run
astro api airflow trigger_dag_run -p dag_id=my_dag

# Trigger with config
astro api airflow trigger_dag_run -p dag_id=my_dag -F conf[key]=value

# Get a specific run
astro api airflow get_dag_run -p dag_id=my_dag -p dag_run_id=manual__2026-04-07

# Clear (re-run) a DAG run
astro api airflow clear_dag_run -p dag_id=my_dag -p dag_run_id=manual__2026-04-07 -F dry_run=false
```

### Task Instances

```bash
# List task instances for a run
astro api airflow get_task_instances -p dag_id=my_dag -p dag_run_id=manual__2026-04-07

# Use ~ as wildcard (all DAGs or all runs)
astro api airflow get_task_instances -p dag_id=my_dag -p dag_run_id=~

# Get a specific task instance
astro api airflow get_task_instance -p dag_id=my_dag -p dag_run_id=manual__2026-04-07 -p task_id=extract

# Clear/retry failed tasks
astro api airflow post_clear_task_instances -p dag_id=my_dag \
  -F dag_run_id=manual__2026-04-07 -F only_failed=true -F dry_run=false

# Get task logs
astro api airflow get_log -p dag_id=my_dag -p dag_run_id=manual__2026-04-07 \
  -p task_id=extract -p try_number=1
```

### Config & Connections

```bash
astro api airflow get_connections
astro api airflow get_variables
astro api airflow get_config
```

### Filtering with jq

```bash
# List only DAG IDs
astro api airflow get_dags -q '.dags[].dag_id'

# Get failed task IDs from a run
astro api airflow get_task_instances -p dag_id=my_dag -p dag_run_id=~ \
  -q '[.task_instances[] | select(.state=="failed") | .task_id]'
```

---

## Troubleshooting

| Issue | Solution |
|-------|----------|
| Port 8080 in use | Stop other containers or edit `.astro/config.yaml` |
| Container won't start | `astro dev kill` then `astro dev start` |
| Package install failed | Check `requirements.txt` syntax |
| DAG not appearing | Run `astro dev parse` to check for import errors |
| Out of disk space | `docker system prune` |
| Standalone won't start | Ensure `uv` is on PATH and runtime is 3.x |
| Proxy port conflict | `astro config set proxy.port <port>` |
| `.venv` corrupted | `astro dev kill` then `astro dev start --standalone` |

### Reset Environment

When things are broken:

```bash
astro dev kill
astro dev start
```

---

## Upgrade Airflow

### Test compatibility first

```bash
astro dev upgrade-test
```

### Change version

1. Edit `Dockerfile`:
   ```dockerfile
   FROM quay.io/astronomer/astro-runtime:13.0.0
   ```

2. Restart:
   ```bash
   astro dev kill && astro dev start
   ```
