Send summary messages of your Luigi jobs to Slack.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No. The package is abandoned (last updated August 2018, repository archived), has not been maintained for years, and compatibility with current Luigi and Python versions is uncertain. For active Luigi monitoring, consider a maintained alternative or implement Slack integration directly in your pipeline code.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires a Slack webhook URL and an active Luigi installation; the package has not been updated since 2018 and may not work with recent versions of Luigi or Python.
- Installation is straightforward with no runtime dependencies, but the package is abandoned as of 2019 with no recent maintenance.
- The repository is archived and has not received updates in years, so compatibility with current Luigi versions or Python releases is uncertain.

What it is and what it does
Luigi-monitor wraps Luigi job runs and intercepts their completion events to send a consolidated summary to Slack. Instead of triggering individual emails for each failure (which requires mail server setup), it batches all task failures and missing dependencies into a single Slack message when the pipeline finishes. You can customize the notification by selecting which event types to monitor (success, failures, or missing dependencies) and set a username for the Slack bot.
The package works as a context manager around Luigi's main execution, or can be invoked from the command line with configuration stored in a luigi.cfg file. It currently only supports Slack as a notification channel and has no runtime dependencies beyond Luigi itself.
Use it for
- Monitor long-running ETL pipelines on ephemeral EMR clusters without configuring email infrastructure
- Get a single daily summary of all pipeline failures instead of being flooded with per-failure emails
- Track task completion status in a team Slack channel for visibility across data engineering workflows
- Suppress success notifications for clean runs while alerting only on failures and missing dependencies
