Using additional containers =========================== Sidecar Containers ------------------ If you want to deploy your own sidecar container, you can add it through the ``extraContainers`` parameter. You can define different containers for the scheduler, webserver/api-server, Kubernetes/Celery workers, triggerer, dag processor, flower, create user job and migrate database job pods. For example, sidecars that sync Dags from object storage: .. code-block:: yaml :caption: values.yaml scheduler: extraContainers: - name: s3-sync image: my-company/s3-sync:latest imagePullPolicy: Always workers: kubernetes: extraContainers: - name: s3-sync image: my-company/s3-sync:latest imagePullPolicy: Always .. note:: If you use ``workers.kubernetes.extraContainers`` (dedicated for ``KubernetesExecutor``), you are responsible for signaling sidecars to exit when the main container finishes so Airflow can continue the worker shutdown process. Init Containers --------------- You can also deploy extra init containers through the ``extraInitContainers`` parameter. You can define different containers for the scheduler, webserver/api-server, Celery/Kubernetes workers, triggerer, dag processor, create user job and migrate database job pods. For example, an init container that just says hello: .. code-block:: yaml :caption: values.yaml scheduler: extraInitContainers: - name: hello image: debian args: - echo - hello
