da-tubi opened a new issue, #30499: URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow/issues/30499
### Description https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/airflow/cli/commands/webserver_command.py Currently, Airflow webserver is launched via subprocess. It requires a Python virtual environment (with gunicorn installed) to launch the Airflow webserver. For people who want to pex to deploy Airflow, it is a blocking issue. ### Use case/motivation Here is the use cases: https://github.com/da-tubi/pants-airflow And currently, I have to hack `sys.executable` to make it work: ``` python from airflow.__main__ import main def airflow_main(): sys.executable = f"{AIRFLOW_HOME}/bin/python" main() ``` ### Related issues _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a PR? - [ ] Yes I am willing to submit a PR! ### Code of Conduct - [X] I agree to follow this project's [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
