Local development

If you are developing a task locally that references a Resource, you can configure that task to use a local version of that resource (instead of hitting a resource in production or another environment). This is useful, for example, if you want a SQL query to run against a locally running PostgreSQL instance.

The configuration for local resources is stored locally in a dev config file (airplane.dev.yaml) - for more information on this file and how to configure it, see the Dev config file reference.
