Class BigQueryStorageClient (3.6.0)

GitHub RepositoryProduct Reference

Service Description: BigQuery storage API.

The BigQuery storage API can be used to read data stored in BigQuery.

This class provides the ability to make remote calls to the backing service through method calls that map to API methods. Sample code to get started:

 
 try (BigQueryStorageClient bigQueryStorageClient = BigQueryStorageClient.create()) {
   TableReference tableReference = TableReference.newBuilder().build();
   String parent = "";
   int requestedStreams = 0;
   ReadSession response = bigQueryStorageClient.createReadSession(tableReference, parent, requestedStreams);
 }
 
 

Note: close() needs to be called on the bigQueryStorageClient object to clean up resources such as threads. In the example above, try-with-resources is used, which automatically calls close().

The surface of this class includes several types of Java methods for each of the API's methods:

  1. A "flattened" method. With this type of method, the fields of the request type have been converted into function parameters. It may be the case that not all fields are available as parameters, and not every API method will have a flattened method entry point.
  2. A "request object" method. This type of method only takes one parameter, a request object, which must be constructed before the call. Not every API method will have a request object method.
  3. A "callable" method. This type of method takes no parameters and returns an immutable API callable object, which can be used to initiate calls to the service.

See the individual methods for example code.

Many parameters require resource names to be formatted in a particular way. To assist with these names, this class includes a format method for each type of name, and additionally a parse method to extract the individual identifiers contained within names that are returned.

This class can be customized by passing in a custom instance of BigQueryStorageSettings to create(). For example:

To customize credentials:

 
 BigQueryStorageSettings bigQueryStorageSettings =
     BigQueryStorageSettings.newBuilder()
         .setCredentialsProvider(FixedCredentialsProvider.create(myCredentials))
         .build();
 BigQueryStorageClient bigQueryStorageClient =
     BigQueryStorageClient.create(bigQueryStorageSettings);
 
 

To customize the endpoint:

 
 BigQueryStorageSettings bigQueryStorageSettings =
     BigQueryStorageSettings.newBuilder().setEndpoint(myEndpoint).build();
 BigQueryStorageClient bigQueryStorageClient =
     BigQueryStorageClient.create(bigQueryStorageSettings);

close()

public final void close()

createReadSession(Storage.CreateReadSessionRequest request)

public final Storage.ReadSession createReadSession(Storage.CreateReadSessionRequest request)

Creates a new read session. A read session divides the contents of a BigQuery table into one or more streams, which can then be used to read data from the table. The read session also specifies properties of the data to be read, such as a list of columns or a push-down filter describing the rows to be returned.

A particular row can be read by at most one stream. When the caller has reached the end of each stream in the session, then all the data in the table has been read.

Read sessions automatically expire 24 hours after they are created and do not require manual clean-up by the caller.

Sample code:


 try (BigQueryStorageClient bigQueryStorageClient = BigQueryStorageClient.create()) {
   TableReference tableReference = TableReference.newBuilder().build();
   String parent = "";
   CreateReadSessionRequest request = CreateReadSessionRequest.newBuilder()
     .setTableReference(tableReference)
     .setParent(parent)
     .build();
   ReadSession response = bigQueryStorageClient.createReadSession(request);
 }
 
Parameter
Name Description
request Storage.CreateReadSessionRequest

The request object containing all of the parameters for the API call.

Returns
Type Description
Storage.ReadSession

 }
 
Parameters
Name Description
tableReference TableReferenceProto.TableReference

Required. Reference to the table to read.

parent String

Required. String of the form "projects/your-project-id" indicating the project this ReadSession is associated with. This is the project that will be billed for usage.

requestedStreams int

Optional. Initial number of streams. If unset or 0, we will provide a value of streams so as to produce reasonable throughput. Must be non-negative. The number of streams may be lower than the requested number, depending on the amount parallelism that is reasonable for the table and the maximum amount of parallelism allowed by the system.

Streams must be read starting from offset 0.

finalizeStream(Storage.FinalizeStreamRequest request)

public final void finalizeStream(Storage.FinalizeStreamRequest request)

Triggers the graceful termination of a single stream in a ReadSession. This API can be used to dynamically adjust the parallelism of a batch processing task downwards without losing data.

This API does not delete the stream -- it remains visible in the ReadSession, and any data processed by the stream is not released to other streams. However, no additional data will be assigned to the stream once this call completes. Callers must continue reading data on the stream until the end of the stream is reached so that data which has already been assigned to the stream will be processed.

This method will return an error if there are no other live streams in the Session, or if SplitReadStream() has been called on the given Stream.

Sample code:


 try (BigQueryStorageClient bigQueryStorageClient = BigQueryStorageClient.create()) {
   Stream stream = Stream.newBuilder().build();
   FinalizeStreamRequest request = FinalizeStreamRequest.newBuilder()
     .setStream(stream)
     .build();
   bigQueryStorageClient.finalizeStream(request);
 }
 
Parameter
Name Description
request Storage.FinalizeStreamRequest

The request object containing all of the parameters for the API call.

readRowsCallable()

public final ServerStreamingCallable<Storage.ReadRowsRequest,Storage.ReadRowsResponse> readRowsCallable()

Reads rows from the table in the format prescribed by the read session. Each response contains one or more table rows, up to a maximum of 10 MiB per response; read requests which attempt to read individual rows larger than this will fail.

Each request also returns a set of stream statistics reflecting the estimated total number of rows in the read stream. This number is computed based on the total table size and the number of active streams in the read session, and may change as other streams continue to read data.

Sample code:


 try (BigQueryStorageClient bigQueryStorageClient = BigQueryStorageClient.create()) {
   StreamPosition readPosition = StreamPosition.newBuilder().build();
   ReadRowsRequest request = ReadRowsRequest.newBuilder()
     .setReadPosition(readPosition)
     .build();

   ServerStream<ReadRowsResponse> stream = bigQueryStorageClient.readRowsCallable().call(request);
   for (ReadRowsResponse response : stream) {
     // Do something when receive a response
   }
 }
 
Returns
Type Description
ServerStreamingCallable<ReadRowsRequest,ReadRowsResponse>

splitReadStream(Storage.SplitReadStreamRequest request)

public final Storage.SplitReadStreamResponse splitReadStream(Storage.SplitReadStreamRequest request)

Splits a given read stream into two Streams. These streams are referred to as the primary and the residual of the split. The original stream can still be read from in the same manner as before. Both of the returned streams can also be read from, and the total rows return by both child streams will be the same as the rows read from the original stream.

Moreover, the two child streams will be allocated back to back in the original Stream. Concretely, it is guaranteed that for streams Original, Primary, and Residual, that Original[0-j] = Primary[0-j] and Original[j-n] = Residual[0-m] once the streams have been read to completion.

This method is guaranteed to be idempotent.

Sample code:


 try (BigQueryStorageClient bigQueryStorageClient = BigQueryStorageClient.create()) {
   Stream originalStream = Stream.newBuilder().build();
   SplitReadStreamRequest request = SplitReadStreamRequest.newBuilder()
