Custom operator name field dont accept special characters

Apache Airflow version: 1.10.2 --> 1.10.11

Kubernetes version (if you are using kubernetes) (use kubectl version):

Environment:

• Cloud provider or hardware configuration: Internal Cloud solution (VM hosting)
• OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release): rhel 7.7
• Kernel (e.g. uname -a): any
• Install tools: pypi
• Others:

What happened:

Cant import operator if name field contains special or caps character

What you expected to happen:

Load the operator even name contains special character

How to reproduce it: just add special or caps characters to the class field name example :

import logging

from airflow.models import BaseOperator
from airflow.plugins_manager import Airflowplugin
from airflow.utils.decorators import apply_defaults

log = logging.getLogger(__name__)

class DevMultiplyOperator(BaseOperator):

  @apply_defaults
  def __init__(self, my_operator_param, * args, ** kwargs):
    self.operator_param = my_operator_param
    super(DevMultiplyoperator, self).__init__( * args, ** kwargs)
  
  def execute(self, context):
    try:
       log.info('operator_param: %s', self.operator_param)
       if not isinstance(self.operator_param, int): 
            raise TypeError('Use integer as inputs.')
       return (self.operator_param * 5)
    except Exception as error:
       log.error(error) 
       raise

class DevMultiplyPlugin(AirflowPlugin):
  name = "dev_multiply_plugin"
  operators = [DevMultiplyoperator]

Anything else we need to know: We are using plugins directory to host operators/hooks/sensor to better organize project. /dags --> contains dags and subdags /plugins --> contains operators/hooks/sensor /config --> contains configuration files /tests --> contains tests files

It seems that you are not using super correctly. Can you change the way you are using it? Change this super(DevMultiplyoperator, self).__init__( * args, ** kwargs) to super().__init__( * args, ** kwargs)

@ephraimbuddy That is Python2 vs Python3 syntax. Airflow code base has switched to the later, but the former will still work on Python3 without trouble, so it’s not that.

@aladinoss How were you trying to import this? What error did you receive when you did so?

Closing due to no response. We can reopen this if we get more details.
