Airflow end_date error AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'utcoffset'

Question

I want to add an end_date to my DAG however, when I run the specific DAG I get the above error. It seems odd because I can update the startdate in the same format but not the enddate.

Here is a sample of my code below.

default_args = base_args.copy()
default_args['end_date'] = datetime(2020, 5, 5)
dag = DAG(
    dag_name,
    catchup=True,
    default_args=default_args,
    schedule_interval=schedule_interval
)
with dag:
    extract = BashOperator(
            task_id=dag_name
         )

And here is the Traceback

Answer 1

Some extra comma in the code creates this. Especially in the following line:

Before fix:

import pendulum
local_tz = pendulum.timezone("America/Los_Angeles")
date = datetime(2021, 8, 3, tzinfo=local_tz),

Had similar issue. It was extra "," that was creating the issue.

After Fix:

import pendulum
local_tz = pendulum.timezone("America/Los_Angeles")
date = datetime(2021, 8, 3, tzinfo=local_tz)
