title: How to work with configuration files in Airflow
body: <p>In Airflow, we've created several DAGS. Some of which share common properties, for example the directory to read files from. Currently, these properties are listed as a property in each separate DAG, which will obviously become problematic in the future. Say if the directory name was to change, we'd have to go into each DAG and update this piece of code (possibly even missing one).</p>
  
  <p>I was looking into creating some sort of a configuration file, which can be parsed into Airflow and used by the various DAGS when a certain property is required, but I cannot seem to find any sort of documentation or guide on how to do this. Most I could find was the documentation on setting up Connection ID's, but that does not meet my use case.</p>
  
  <p>The question to my post, is it possible to do the above scenario and how?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
