query(QueryJobConfiguration configuration, BigQuery.JobOption[] options)

public abstract TableResult query(QueryJobConfiguration configuration, BigQuery.JobOption[] options)

If the location of the job is not "US" or "EU", #query(QueryJobConfiguration, JobId, JobOption...) must be used instead.

This method cannot be used in conjuction with QueryJobConfiguration#dryRun() queries. Since dry-run queries are not actually executed, there's no way to retrieve results.

Example of running a query.


 // BigQuery bigquery = BigQueryOptions.getDefaultInstance().getService();
 String query = "SELECT corpus FROM bigquery-public-data.samples.shakespeare GROUP BY corpus;";
 QueryJobConfiguration queryConfig = QueryJobConfiguration.newBuilder(query).build();

 // Print the results.
 for (FieldValueList row : bigquery.query(queryConfig).iterateAll()) {
   for (FieldValue val : row) {
     System.out.printf("%s,", val.toString());
   }
   System.out.printf("
");
 }
 

This method supports query-related preview features via environmental variables (enabled by setting the QUERY_PREVIEW_ENABLED environment variable to "TRUE"). Specifically, this method supports:

  • Stateless queries: query execution without corresponding job metadata

The behaviour of these preview features is controlled by the bigquery service as well

Example of updating a model by changing its expiration.


 String datasetName = "my_dataset_name";
 String modelName = "my_model_name";
 Model beforeModel = bigquery.getModel(datasetName, modelName);

 // Set model to expire 5 days from now.
 long expirationMillis = DateTime.now().plusDays(5).getMillis();
 ModelInfo modelInfo = beforeModel.toBuilder().setExpirationTime(expirationMillis).build();
 Model afterModel = bigquery.update(modelInfo);

writer(JobId jobId, WriteChannelConfiguration writeChannelConfiguration)

public abstract TableDataWriteChannel writer(JobId jobId, WriteChannelConfiguration writeChannelConfiguration)

Returns a channel to write data to be inserted into a BigQuery table. Data format and other options can be configured using the WriteChannelConfiguration parameter. If the job is not in "US" or "EU", the jobId must contain the location of the job.

Example of creating a channel with which to write to a table.


 String datasetName = "my_dataset_name";
 String tableName = "my_table_name";
 String csvData = "StringValue1
StringValue2
";
 String location = "us";
 TableId tableId = TableId.of(datasetName, tableName);
 WriteChannelConfiguration writeChannelConfiguration = WriteChannelConfiguration.newBuilder(tableId)
     .setFormatOptions(FormatOptions.csv()).build();
 // The location must be specified; other fields can be auto-detected.
 JobId jobId = JobId.newBuilder().setLocation(location).build();
 TableDataWriteChannel writer = bigquery.writer(jobId, writeChannelConfiguration);
 // Write data to writer
 try {
   writer.write(ByteBuffer.wrap(csvData.getBytes(Charsets.UTF_8)));
 } finally {
   writer.close();
 }
 // Get load job
 Job job = writer.getJob();
 job = job.waitFor();
 LoadStatistics stats = job.getStatistics();
 return stats.getOutputRows();
 
Parameters
Name Description
jobId JobId
writeChannelConfiguration WriteChannelConfiguration
Returns
Type Description
TableDataWriteChannel

writer(WriteChannelConfiguration writeChannelConfiguration)

public abstract TableDataWriteChannel writer(WriteChannelConfiguration writeChannelConfiguration)

Returns a channel to write data to be inserted into a BigQuery table. Data format and other options can be configured using the WriteChannelConfiguration parameter. If the job is not in "US" or "EU", #writer(JobId, WriteChannelConfiguration) must be used instead.

Example of creating a channel with which to write to a table.


 String datasetName = "my_dataset_name";
 String tableName = "my_table_name";
 String csvData = "StringValue1
StringValue2
";
 TableId tableId = TableId.of(datasetName, tableName);
 WriteChannelConfiguration writeChannelConfiguration = WriteChannelConfiguration.newBuilder(tableId)
     .setFormatOptions(FormatOptions.csv()).build();
 TableDataWriteChannel writer = bigquery.writer(writeChannelConfiguration);
 // Write data to writer
 try {
   writer.write(ByteBuffer.wrap(csvData.getBytes(Charsets.UTF_8)));
 } finally {
   writer.close();
 }
 // Get load job
 Job job = writer.getJob();
 job = job.waitFor();
 LoadStatistics stats = job.getStatistics();
 return stats.getOutputRows();
 

Example of writing a local file to a table.


 String datasetName = "my_dataset_name";
 String tableName = "my_table_name";
 Path csvPath = FileSystems.getDefault().getPath(".", "my-data.csv");
 String location = "us";
 TableId tableId = TableId.of(datasetName, tableName);
 WriteChannelConfiguration writeChannelConfiguration = WriteChannelConfiguration.newBuilder(tableId)
     .setFormatOptions(FormatOptions.csv()).build();
 // The location must be specified; other fields can be auto-detected.
 JobId jobId = JobId.newBuilder().setLocation(location).build();
 TableDataWriteChannel writer = bigquery.writer(jobId, writeChannelConfiguration);
 // Write data to writer
 try (OutputStream stream = Channels.newOutputStream(writer)) {
   Files.copy(csvPath, stream);
 }
 // Get load job
 Job job = writer.getJob();
 job = job.waitFor();
 LoadStatistics stats = job.getStatistics();
 return stats.getOutputRows();
