Some of the > base classes ( BaseOperator , Base Hooks, SkipMixins will remain in > the airflow.sdk as the "foundation" for all other operators) > - Standard provider 1.0.0 will contain everything we want to extract > there - which means that the provider will be in "not-ready" state until we > migrate all the "standard" components - and we release it then as 1.0.0. > Before the migration we remove all deprecations that were in those > operators - so that the "standard" provider contains "clean Airflow 3 > versions" of those operators. > - We discussed a few paths of upgrade for users: > 1. The user is on Airflow 2; they fixed the deprecation warning and > then installed the new standard provider. Then, switch the DAGs to use > operators from the Standard provider instead of AF 2. They are now > ready to > upgrade to Airflow 3. > 2. The user on Airflow 2 fixes all the deprecations and upgrades to > Airflow 3; the import paths ( airflow.operators.python ) work due > to dynamic imports that Ash suggested on the mailing list. This will now > throw warnings that a user needs to import PythonOperator (as an > example) > from the standard provider ( airflow.providers.standard ) instead > of Airflow, but it will work as the "standard" provider will be > preinstalled with Airflow. A user will now switch the import paths to > using > one from the standard provider. > - The standard provider 1.0.0 will contain changelogs of breaking > changes from the Airflow core. Where applicable, the relevant news fragment > in the current core will be moved to the Airflow standard provider. The > newsfragments (Updating guide) for Airflow 3 docs will say that the core > operators have been moved to the standard provider and it will have a link > to that Standard provider docs for detailed breaking changes. > - The Airflow 2 to 3 migration process will be documented in the > Airflow docs (similar to this > > <https://airflow.apache.org/docs/apache-airflow/stable/howto/upgrading-from-1-10/index.html> > but > better), with a recommended approach from each of the two approaches listed > above.
