Package com.google.cloud.dataflow.sdk.io Description

Defines transforms for reading and writing common storage formats, including AvroIO, BigQueryIO, and TextIO.

The classes in this package provide Read transforms that create PCollections from existing storage:

 PCollection<TableRow> inputData = pipeline.apply(
     BigQueryIO.Read.named("Read")
                    .from("clouddataflow-readonly:samples.weather_stations");
 

and Write transforms that persist PCollections to external storage:

 
 PCollection<Integer> numbers = ...;
 numbers.apply(TextIO.Write.named("WriteNumbers")
                           .to("gs://my_bucket/path/to/numbers"));
