Class BigQueryReadClient (2.8.0)

BigQueryReadClient(*, credentials: Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials] = None, transport: Optional[Union[str, google.cloud.bigquery_storage_v1.services.big_query_read.transports.base.BigQueryReadTransport]] = None, client_options: Optional[google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions] = None, client_info: google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo = <google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo object>)

BigQuery Read API. The Read API can be used to read data from BigQuery.

Properties

transport

Returns the transport used by the client instance.

Returns

Type	Description
`BigQueryReadTransport`	The transport used by the client instance.

Methods

BigQueryReadClient

BigQueryReadClient(*, credentials: Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials] = None, transport: Optional[Union[str, google.cloud.bigquery_storage_v1.services.big_query_read.transports.base.BigQueryReadTransport]] = None, client_options: Optional[google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions] = None, client_info: google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo = <google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo object>)

Instantiates the big query read client.

Parameters

Name	Description
`credentials`	`Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials]` The authorization credentials to attach to requests. These credentials identify the application to the service; if none are specified, the client will attempt to ascertain the credentials from the environment.
`transport`	`Union[str, BigQueryReadTransport]` The transport to use. If set to None, a transport is chosen automatically.
`client_options`	`google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions` Custom options for the client. It won't take effect if a `transport` instance is provided. (1) The `api_endpoint` property can be used to override the default endpoint provided by the client. GOOGLE_API_USE_MTLS_ENDPOINT environment variable can also be used to override the endpoint: "always" (always use the default mTLS endpoint), "never" (always use the default regular endpoint) and "auto" (auto switch to the default mTLS endpoint if client certificate is present, this is the default value). However, the `api_endpoint` property takes precedence if provided. (2) If GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE environment variable is "true", then the `client_cert_source` property can be used to provide client certificate for mutual TLS transport. If not provided, the default SSL client certificate will be used if present. If GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE is "false" or not set, no client certificate will be used.
`client_info`	`google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo` The client info used to send a user-agent string along with API requests. If `None`, then default info will be used. Generally, you only need to set this if you're developing your own client library.

Exceptions

Type	Description
`google.auth.exceptions.MutualTLSChannelError`	If mutual TLS transport creation failed for any reason.

create_read_session

create_read_session(request: Optional[google.cloud.bigquery_storage_v1.types.storage.CreateReadSessionRequest] = None, *, parent: Optional[str] = None, read_session: Optional[google.cloud.bigquery_storage_v1.types.stream.ReadSession] = None, max_stream_count: Optional[int] = None, retry: google.api_core.retry.Retry = <_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout: Optional[float] = None, metadata: Sequence[Tuple[str, str]] = ())

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.

Data is assigned to each stream such that roughly the same number of rows can be read from each stream. Because the server-side unit for assigning data is collections of rows, the API does not guarantee that each stream will return the same number or rows. Additionally, the limits are enforced based on the number of pre-filtered rows, so some filters can lead to lopsided assignments.

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

Parameters

Name	Description
`request`	`google.cloud.bigquery_storage_v1.types.CreateReadSessionRequest` The request object. Request message for `CreateReadSession`.
`parent`	`str` Required. The request project that owns the session, in the form of `projects/{project_id}`. This corresponds to the `parent` field on the `request` instance; if `request` is provided, this should not be set.
`read_session`	`google.cloud.bigquery_storage_v1.types.ReadSession` Required. Session to be created. This corresponds to the `read_session` field on the `request` instance; if `request` is provided, this should not be set.
`max_stream_count`	`int` Max initial number of streams. If unset or zero, the server 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. Error will be returned if the max count is greater than the current system max limit of 1,000. Streams must be read starting from offset 0. This corresponds to the `max_stream_count` field on the `request` instance; if `request` is provided, this should not be set.
`retry`	`google.api_core.retry.Retry` Designation of what errors, if any, should be retried.
`timeout`	`float` The timeout for this request.
`metadata`	`Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]` Strings which should be sent along with the request as metadata.

Splits a given ReadStream into two ReadStream objects. These ReadStream objects are referred to as the primary and the residual streams of the split. The original ReadStream can still be read from in the same manner as before. Both of the returned ReadStream objects can also be read from, and the rows returned 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 ReadStream. 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.
