Airflow Cube Provider

Cube is the semantic layer for building data applications. It helps data engineers and application developers access data from modern data stores, organize it into consistent definitions, and deliver it to every application.

Connection requirements

CubeHook uses Generic connection. So, in order to create a connection to a Cube you will need to create an Airflow Generic connection and specify the following required properties:

• host - your Cube's host (must contain schema, address and port);
• password - your Cube's CUBEJS_API_SECRET;
• extra.security_context - your user securityContext (in a Cube's terms).

Rest of the connection fields will be ignored.

Note: the CubeBuildOperator uses Cube's /cubejs-api/v1/pre-aggregations/jobs endpoint that is forbiden by the default. Make sure that specified securityContext and Cube's contextToPermissions function are configured in a way that allow you to run this query. See Cube's documentation for a more context.
