Methods

CheckAndMutateRow(TableName, BigtableByteString, RowFilter, Mutation[])

public virtual CheckAndMutateRowResponse CheckAndMutateRow(TableName tableName, BigtableByteString rowKey, RowFilter predicateFilter, params Mutation[] trueMutations)

Mutates a row atomically based on the output of a predicate Reader filter.

Parameters
NameDescription
tableNameTableName

The unique name of the table to which the conditional mutation should be applied. Must not be null.

rowKeyBigtableByteString

The key of the row to which the conditional mutation should be applied. Must not be empty.

predicateFilterRowFilter

The filter to be applied to the contents of the specified row. Depending on whether or not any results are yielded, trueMutations may or may not be executed. If null, checks that the row contains any values at all.

trueMutationsMutation[]

Changes to be atomically applied to the specified row if predicateFilter yields at least one cell when applied to rowKey. Entries are applied in order, meaning that earlier mutations can be masked by later ones. Must contain at least one entry and at most 100000. Must not be null, or contain null elements.

Returns
TypeDescription
CheckAndMutateRowResponse

The response from trying to mutate the row.

Remarks

Note that string is implicitly convertible to BigtableByteString, so rowKey can be specified using a string as well and its UTF-8 representations will be used.

This method simply delegates to CheckAndMutateRow(CheckAndMutateRowRequest, CallSettings).

ReadModifyWriteRow(TableName, BigtableByteString, ReadModifyWriteRule[])

public virtual ReadModifyWriteRowResponse ReadModifyWriteRow(TableName tableName, BigtableByteString rowKey, params ReadModifyWriteRule[] rules)

Modifies a row atomically on the server. The method reads the latest existing version and value from the specified columns and writes a new entry based on pre-defined read/modify/write rules. The new value for the version is the greater of the previous value's version or the current server version. The method returns the new contents of all modified cells.

Parameters
NameDescription
tableNameTableName

The unique name of the table to which the read/modify/write rules should be applied. Must not be null.

rowKeyBigtableByteString

The key of the row to which the read/modify/write rules should be applied. Must not be empty.

rulesReadModifyWriteRule[]

Rules specifying how the specified row's contents are to be transformed into writes. Entries are applied in order, meaning that earlier rules will affect the results of later ones. Must not be null, or contain null elements.

Returns
TypeDescription
ReadModifyWriteRowResponse

The response from modifying the row.

Remarks

Note that the server version is based on the current timestamp since the Unix epoch, so for columns which are updated using ReadModifyWriteRow, other reads and writes of those columns should use BigtableVersion values constructed from DateTime values, as opposed to using a custom versioning scheme with 64-bit values.

Note that string is implicitly convertible to BigtableByteString, so rowKey can be specified using a string as well and its UTF-8 representations will be used.

This method simply delegates to ReadModifyWriteRow(ReadModifyWriteRowRequest, CallSettings).

ReadModifyWriteRow(TableName, BigtableByteString, IEnumerable<ReadModifyWriteRule>, CallSettings)

public virtual ReadModifyWriteRowResponse ReadModifyWriteRow(TableName tableName, BigtableByteString rowKey, IEnumerable<ReadModifyWriteRule> rules, CallSettings callSettings = null)

Parameters
NameDescription

This method simply delegates to ReadModifyWriteRowAsync(ReadModifyWriteRowRequest, CallSettings).

Example
// Increase the value of the cell with the "Level 1" qualifier in the

    new TableName(projectId, instanceId, tableId),
    "user12345",
    ReadModifyWriteRules.Increment("Score", "Level 1", 55));

Cell modifiedCell = response.Row.Families[0].Columns[0].Cells[0];

// which supports additional conversions specific to Bigtable.
BigtableByteString value = modifiedCell.Value;

// Convert the BigtableByteString to a long to obtain the updated value.
long newScore = (long) value;
Console.WriteLine($"The total score for level 1 is now {newScore}");
