This article and comments make me feel better. I wanted a job scheduler (not so different ti a job queue I guess). Heard bad things about Luigi, good things about AirFlow. But after spending half a day trying to grok it, I was terrified. I think I gave up when I had to choose between Postgres and MySQL to create user accounts, just to get started.
I wrote my own in half a day, then spent a few days total tinkering with it too, so far so good.
- TillE 4y agoI've found this is a very useful exercise when your requirements are much simpler than [popular library], or you need a specific feature that it can't easily be patched to support. Write your own, and even if you give up halfway through and use the popular library after all, you'll have learned a lot about how stuff works, and can make better decisions about how to use the library.
