DAG/plugins/data path is different from GCP Cloud Composer

[dan0dbfe]

First of all, thanks for creating this tool. The local environments will come in very useful for local testing, shortening the feedback loop.

I noticed that my DAGs were failing because:

• Data path in the local Airflow environment: /home/airflow/airflow/data
• Data path in GCP Cloud Composer: /home/airflow/gcs/data

Please consider making the paths the same so that absolute path references work.

This is useful for BashOperator's cwd argument, which is non-templated and needs an absolute path.

Workaround

ln -s /home/airflow/airflow/dags /home/airflow/gcs
ln -s /home/airflow/airflow/plugins /home/airflow/gcs
ln -s /home/airflow/airflow/data /home/airflow/gcs

You may modify the CLI to add this in entrypoint.sh too.

Thank you!

Since we're in 0.9.x version we've made a decision to align the paths so the workaround is not needed anymore.

Thanks for reporting this discrepancy :)
