.. _howto/operator:FileSensor:
Use the :class:~airflow.providers.standard.sensors.filesystem.FileSensor to detect files appearing in your local
filesystem. You need to have connection defined to use it (pass connection id via fs_conn_id).
Default connection is fs_default.
.. exampleinclude:: /../src/airflow/providers/standard/example_dags/example_sensors.py :language: python :dedent: 4 :start-after: [START example_file_sensor] :end-before: [END example_file_sensor]
Also for this job you can use sensor in the deferrable mode:
.. exampleinclude:: /../src/airflow/providers/standard/example_dags/example_sensors.py :language: python :dedent: 4 :start-after: [START example_file_sensor_async] :end-before: [END example_file_sensor_async]
