Instance

User-friendly container for Google Cloud Bigtable Instance.

class google.cloud.bigtable.instance.Instance(instance_id, client, display_name=None, instance_type=None, labels=None, _state=None)

Bases: object

Representation of a Google Cloud Bigtable Instance.

We can use an Instance to:

• reload() itself

• create() itself

• update() itself

• delete() itself

NOTE: For now, we leave out the default_storage_type (an enum) which if not sent will end up as data_v2_pb2.STORAGE_SSD.

• Parameters

  • instance_id (str) – The ID of the instance.

  • client (Client) – The client that owns the instance. Provides authorization and a project ID.

  • display_name (str) – (Optional) The display name for the instance in the Cloud Console UI. (Must be between 4 and 30 characters.) If this value is not set in the constructor, will fall back to the instance ID.

  • instance_type (int) – (Optional) The type of the instance. Possible values are represented by the following constants: google.cloud.bigtable.enums.Instance.Type.PRODUCTION. google.cloud.bigtable.enums.Instance.Type.DEVELOPMENT, Defaults to google.cloud.bigtable.enums.Instance.Type.UNSPECIFIED.

  • labels (dict) – (Optional) Labels are a flexible and lightweight mechanism for organizing cloud resources into groups that reflect a customer’s organizational needs and deployment strategies. They can be used to filter resources and aggregate metrics. Label keys must be between 1 and 63 characters long. Maximum 64 labels can be associated with a given resource. Label values must be between 0 and 63 characters long. Keys and values must both be under 128 bytes.

  • _state (int) – (OutputOnly) The current state of the instance. Possible values are represented by the following constants: google.cloud.bigtable.enums.Instance.State.STATE_NOT_KNOWN. google.cloud.bigtable.enums.Instance.State.READY. google.cloud.bigtable.enums.Instance.State.CREATING.

instance.instance_id = 'i-changed-my-mind'

before calling create().

• Parameters

  • location_id (str) – (Creation Only) The location where nodes and storage of the cluster owned by this instance reside. For best performance, clients should be located as close as possible to cluster’s location. For list of supported locations refer to https://cloud.google.com/bigtable/docs/locations

• Return type

  Operation

• Returns

  The long-running operation corresponding to the create operation.

• Raises

  ValueError if both clusters and one of location_id, serve_nodes and default_storage_type are set.

delete()

Delete this instance.

For example:

    from google.cloud.bigtable import Client

    client = Client(admin=True)

    instance_to_delete = client.instance(instance_id)
    instance_to_delete.delete()

Marks an instance and all of its tables for permanent deletion in 7 days.

Immediately upon completion of the request:

• Billing will cease for all of the instance’s reserved resources.

• The instance’s delete_time field will be set 7 days in the future.

Soon afterward:

• All tables within the instance will become unavailable.

At the instance’s delete_time:

• The instance and all of its tables will immediately and irrevocably disappear from the API, and their data will be permanently deleted.

exists()

Check whether the instance already exists.

For example:

    from google.cloud.bigtable import Client

    client = Client(admin=True)
    instance = client.instance(INSTANCE_ID)
    instance_exists = instance.exists()

• Return type

  bool

• Returns

  True if the table exists, else False.

classmethod from_pb(instance_pb, client)

Creates an instance instance from a protobuf.

For example:

    from google.cloud.bigtable import Client
    from google.cloud.bigtable_admin_v2.types import instance_pb2

    client = Client(admin=True)
    instance = client.instance(INSTANCE_ID)

    name = instance.name
    instance_pb = instance_pb2.Instance(
        name=name, display_name=INSTANCE_ID, type=PRODUCTION, labels=LABELS
    )

    instance2 = instance.from_pb(instance_pb, client)

• Parameters

  • instance_pb (instance_pb2.Instance) – An instance protobuf object.

  • client (Client) – The client that owns the instance.

• Return type

  Instance

• Returns

  The instance parsed from the protobuf response.

• Raises

  ValueError if the instance name does not match projects/{project}/instances/{instance_id} or if the parsed project ID does not match the project ID on the client.

get_iam_policy(requested_policy_version=None)

Gets the access control policy for an instance resource.

For example:

    from google.cloud.bigtable import Client

    client = Client(admin=True)
    instance = client.instance(INSTANCE_ID)
    policy = instance.get_iam_policy()

• Parameters

  requested_policy_version (int or NoneType) – Optional. The version of IAM policies to request. If a policy with a condition is requested without setting this, the server will return an error. This must be set to a value of 3 to retrieve IAM policies containing conditions. This is to prevent client code that isn’t aware of IAM conditions from interpreting and modifying policies incorrectly. The service might return a policy with version lower than the one that was requested, based on the feature syntax in the policy fetched.

• Return type

  google.cloud.bigtable.policy.Policy

• Returns

  The current IAM policy of this instance

list_app_profiles()
