[airflow] 01/01: Improve discoverability of Provider packages' functionality

This is an automated email from the ASF dual-hosted git repository.

potiuk pushed a commit to branch v2-1-test
in repository https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/airflow.git

commit f312e1759ca9dedf8fcc5360c3b2c3dfc02b95c9
Author: Jarek Potiuk <ja...@potiuk.com>
AuthorDate: Sat Aug 21 23:10:31 2021 +0200

    Improve discoverability of Provider packages' functionality
    
    The documentation of provider packages was rather disconnected
    from the apache-airlfow documentation. It was hard to find the
    ways how the apache airflow's core extensions are implemented by
    the community managed providers - you needed to know what you were
    looking for, and you could not find links to the summary of the
    core-functionality extended by providers when you were looking at
    the functionality (like logging/secret backends/connections/auth)
    
    This PR inroduces much more comprehensive cross-linking between
    the airflow core functionalithy and the community-managed providers
    that are providing extensions to the core functionality.
    
    (cherry picked from commit bcc76656844be47f923527c0a6cd1de546655cb4)

 Provider packages
 -----------------
 
-.. contents:: :local:
+Apache Airflow 2 is built in modular way. The "Core" of Apache Airflow provides core scheduler
+functionality which allow you to write some basic tasks, but the capabilities of Apache Airflow can
+be extended by installing additional packages, called ``providers``.
 
-.. _providers:community-maintained-providers:
-
-Community maintained providers
-''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
+Providers can contain operators, hooks, sensor, and transfer operators to communicate with a
+multitude of external systems, but they can also extend Airflow core with new capabilities.
 
-Unlike Apache Airflow 1.10, the Airflow 2.0 is delivered in multiple, separate but connected packages.
-The core of Airflow scheduling system is delivered as ``apache-airflow`` package and there are around
-60 providers packages which can be installed separately as so called "Airflow Provider packages".
-Those provider packages are separated per-provider (for example ``amazon``, ``google``, ``salesforce``
-etc.). Those packages are available as ``apache-airflow-providers`` packages - separately per each provider
-(for example there is an ``apache-airflow-providers-amazon`` or ``apache-airflow-providers-google`` package).
+You can install those provider packages separately in order to interface with a given service. The providers
+for ``Apache Airflow`` are designed in the way that you can write your own providers easily. The
+``Apache Airflow Community`` develops and maintain more than 60 provider packages, but you are free to
+develop your own providers - the providers you build have exactly the same capability as the providers
+written by the community, so you can release and share those providers with others.
 
 The full list of community managed providers is available at
 `Providers Index <https://airflow.apache.org/docs/#providers-packages-docs-apache-airflow-providers-index-html>`_.
 
-You can install those provider packages separately in order to interface with a given service. For those
-providers that have corresponding extras, the provider packages (latest version from PyPI) are installed
-automatically when Airflow is installed with the extra.
+You can also see index of all community provider's operators and hooks in
+:doc:`/operators-and-hooks-ref/index`
 
-Community maintained providers are released and versioned separately from the Airflow releases. We are
-following the `Semver <https://semver.org/>`_ versioning scheme for the packages. Some versions of the
-provider packages might depend on particular versions of Airflow, but the general approach we have is that
-unless there is a good reason, new version of providers should work with recent versions of Airflow 2.x.
-Details will vary per-provider and if there is a limitation for particular version of particular provider,
-constraining the Airflow version used, it will be included as limitation of dependencies in the provider
-package.
+Extending Airflow core functionality
+------------------------------------
 
-Some of the providers have cross-provider dependencies as well. Those are not required dependencies, they
-might simply enable certain features (for example transfer operators often create dependency between
-different providers. Again, the general approach here is that the providers are backwards compatible,
-including cross-dependencies. Any kind of breaking changes and requirements on particular versions of other
-provider packages are automatically documented in the release notes of every provider.
+Providers give you the capability of extending core Airflow with extra capabilities. The Core airflow
+provides basic and solid functionality of scheduling, the providers extend its capabilities. Here we
+describe all the custom capabilities.
 
-.. note::
-    We also provide ``apache-airflow-backport-providers`` packages that can be installed for Airflow 1.10.
-    Those are the same providers as for 2.0 but automatically back-ported to work for Airflow 1.10. The
-    last release of backport providers was done on March 17, 2021.
+Airflow automatically discovers which providers add those additional capabilities and, once you install
+provider package and re-start Airflow, those become automatically available to Airflow Users.
+
+The summary of the core functionalities that can be extended are available in
+:doc:`/core-extensions/index`.
+

+Types of providers
+------------------
 
-Providers can contain operators, hooks, sensor, and transfer operators to communicate with a
-multitude of external systems, but they can also extend Airflow core. Airflow has several extension
-capabilities that can be used by providers. Airflow automatically discovers which providers add those
-additional capabilities and, once you install provider package and re-start Airflow, those become
-automatically available to Airflow Users.
+Providers have the same capacity - no matter if they are provided by the community or if they are
+third-party providers. This chapter explains how community managed providers are versioned and released
+and how you can create your own providers.
+
+Community maintained providers
+''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
+
+From the point of view of the community, Airflow is delivered in multiple, separate packages.
+The core of Airflow scheduling system is delivered as ``apache-airflow`` package and there are more than
+60 provider packages which can be installed separately as so called ``Airflow Provider packages``.
+Those packages are available as ``apache-airflow-providers`` packages - for example there is an
+``apache-airflow-providers-amazon`` or ``apache-airflow-providers-google`` package).
+
+Community maintained providers are released and versioned separately from the Airflow releases. We are
+following the `Semver <https://semver.org/>`_ versioning scheme for the packages. Some versions of the
+provider packages might depend on particular versions of Airflow, but the general approach we have is that
+unless there is a good reason, new version of providers should work with recent versions of Airflow 2.x.
+Details will vary per-provider and if there is a limitation for particular version of particular provider,
+constraining the Airflow version used, it will be included as limitation of dependencies in the provider
+package.
+
+Each community provider has corresponding extra which can be used when installing airflow to install the
+provider together with ``Apache Airflow`` - for example you can install airflow with those extras:
+``apache-airflow[google,amazon]`` (with correct constraints -see :doc:`apache-airflow:installation`) and you
+will install the appropriate versions of the ``apache-airflow-providers-amazon`` and
+``apache-airflow-providers-google`` packages together with ``Apache Airflow``.
+
+Some of the community  providers have cross-provider dependencies as well. Those are not required
+dependencies, they might simply enable certain features (for example transfer operators often create
+dependency between different providers. Again, the general approach here is that the providers are backwards
+compatible, including cross-dependencies. Any kind of breaking changes and requirements on particular versions of other
+provider packages are automatically documented in the release notes of every provider.
 
-The capabilities are:
+.. note::
+    For Airflow 1.10 We also provided ``apache-airflow-backport-providers`` packages that could be installed
+    with those versions Those were the same providers as for 2.0 but automatically back-ported to work for
+    Airflow 1.10. The last release of backport providers was done on March 17, 2021 and the backport
+    providers will no longer be released, since Airflow 1.10 has reached End-Of-Life as of June 17, 2021.
 
-* Adding Extra Links to operators delivered by the provider. See :doc:`apache-airflow:howto/define_extra_link`
-  for a description of what extra links are and examples of provider registering an operator with extra links
+If you want to contribute to ``Apache Airflow``, you can see how to build and extend community
+managed providers in :doc:`howto/create-update-providers`.
 
-* Adding custom connection types, extending connection form and handling custom form field behaviour for the
-  connections defined by the provider. See :doc:`apache-airflow:howto/connection` for a description of
-  connection and what capabilities of custom connection you can define.
