Inserting, updating, and deleting data using Data Manipulation Language

This page describes how to insert, update, and delete Cloud Spanner data using Data Manipulation Language (DML) statements. You can run DML statements using the client libraries, the Google Cloud Console, and the gcloud command-line tool. You can run Partitioned DML statements using the client libraries and the gcloud command-line tool.

For the complete DML syntax reference, see Data Manipulation Language syntax.

Using DML

DML supports INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements in the Cloud Console, gcloud command-line tool, and client libraries.

Locking

You execute DML statements inside read-write transactions. When Cloud Spanner reads data, it acquires shared read locks on limited portions of the row ranges that you read. Specifically, it acquires these locks only on the columns you access. The locks can include data that does not match the filter condition of the WHERE clause.

When Cloud Spanner modifies data using DML statements, it acquires exclusive locks on the specific data that you are modifying. In addition, it acquires shared locks in the same way as when you read data. If your request includes large row ranges, or an entire table, the shared locks might prevent other transactions from completing in parallel.

To modify data as efficiently as possible, use a WHERE clause that enables Cloud Spanner to read only the necessary rows. You can achieve this goal with a filter on the primary key, or on the key of a secondary index. The WHERE clause limits the scope of the shared locks and enables Cloud Spanner to process the update more efficiently.

For example, suppose that one of the musicians in the Singers table changes their first name, and you need to update the name in your database. You could execute the following DML statement, but it forces Cloud Spanner to scan the entire table and acquires shared locks that cover the entire table. As a result, Cloud Spanner must read more data than necessary, and concurrent transactions cannot modify the data in parallel: 

-- ANTI-PATTERN: SENDING AN UPDATE WITHOUT THE PRIMARY KEY COLUMN
-- IN THE WHERE CLAUSE

UPDATE Singers SET FirstName = "Marcel"
WHERE FirstName = "Marc" AND LastName = "Richards";

To make the update more efficient, include the SingerId column in the WHERE clause. The SingerId column is the only primary key column for the Singers table: 

-- RECOMMENDED: INCLUDING THE PRIMARY KEY COLUMN IN THE WHERE CLAUSE

UPDATE Singers SET FirstName = "Marcel"
WHERE FirstName = "Marc" AND LastName = "Richards" AND SingerId = 1;

Concurrency

Cloud Spanner sequentially executes all the SQL statements (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE) within a transaction. They are not executed concurrently. The only exception is that Cloud Spanner might execute multiple SELECT statements concurrently, because they are read-only operations.

Transaction limits

A transaction that includes DML statements has the same limits as any other transaction. If you have large-scale changes, consider using Partitioned DML.

  • If the DML statements in a transaction result in more than 20,000 mutations, the DML statement that pushes the transaction over the limit returns a BadUsage error with a message about too many mutations.

  • If the DML statements in a transaction result in a transaction that is larger than 100 MB, the DML statement that pushes the transaction over the limit returns a BadUsage error with a message about the transaction exceeding the size limit.

Mutations performed using DML are not returned to the client. They are merged into the commit request when it is committed, and they count towards the maximum size limits. Even if the size of the commit request that you send is small, the transaction might still exceed the allowed size limit.

Running statements in the Cloud Console

Use the following steps to execute a DML statement in the Cloud Console.

  1. Go to the Cloud Spanner Instances page.

    Go to the instances page

  2. Select your project in the drop-down list in the toolbar.

  3. Click the name of the instance that contains your database to go to the Instance details page.

  4. In the Overview tab, click the name of your database. The Database details page appears.

  5. Click Query.

  6. Enter a DML statement. For example, the following statement adds a new row to the Singers table.

    INSERT Singers (SingerId, FirstName, LastName)
VALUES (1, 'Marc', 'Richards')

  7. Click Run query. The Cloud Console displays the result.

Executing statements with the gcloud command-line tool

To execute DML statements, use the gcloud spanner databases execute-sql command. The following example adds a new row to the Singers table.

gcloud spanner databases execute-sql example-db --instance=test-instance \
    --sql="INSERT Singers (SingerId, FirstName, LastName) VALUES (1, 'Marc', 'Richards')"

Modifying data using the client library

To execute DML statements using the client library:

  • Create a read-write transaction.
  • Call the client library method for DML execution and pass in the DML statement.
  • Use the return value of the DML execution method to get the number of rows inserted, updated, or deleted.

The following code example inserts a new row into the Singers table.

C#

You use the ExecuteNonQueryAsync() method to execute a DML statement.

public static async Task InsertUsingDmlCoreAsync(
    string projectId,
    string instanceId,
    string databaseId)
{
    string connectionString =
        $"Data Source=projects/{projectId}/instances/{instanceId}"
        + $"/databases/{databaseId}";

    // Create connection to Cloud Spanner.
    using (var connection =
        new SpannerConnection(connectionString))
    {
        await connection.OpenAsync();

        SpannerCommand cmd = connection.CreateDmlCommand(
           "INSERT Singers (SingerId, FirstName, LastName) "
           + "VALUES (10, 'Virginia', 'Watson')");
        int rowCount = await cmd.ExecuteNonQueryAsync();
        Console.WriteLine($"{rowCount} row(s) inserted...");
    }
}

Go

You use the Update() method to execute a DML statement.


func insertUsingDML(ctx context.Context, w io.Writer, client *spanner.Client) error {
	_, err := client.ReadWriteTransaction(ctx, func(ctx context.Context, txn *spanner.ReadWriteTransaction) error {
		stmt := spanner.Statement{
			SQL: `INSERT Singers (SingerId, FirstName, LastName)
					VALUES (10, 'Virginia', 'Watson')`,
		}
		rowCount, err := txn.Update(ctx, stmt)
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		fmt.Fprintf(w, "%d record(s) inserted.\n", rowCount)
		return nil
	})
	return err
}

                      + " VALUES (10, 'Virginia', 'Watson')";
              long rowCount = transaction.executeUpdate(Statement.of(sql));
              System.out.printf("%d record inserted.\n", rowCount);

Reading data written in the same transaction

Changes you make using DML statements are visible to subsequent statements in the same transaction. This is different from using mutations, where changes are not visible until the transaction commits.

Cloud Spanner checks the constraints after every DML statement. This is different from using mutations, where Cloud Spanner buffers mutations in the client until commit and checks constraints at commit time. Evaluating the constraints after each statement allows Cloud Spanner to guarantee that the data that a DML statement returns is consistent with the schema.

The following example updates a row in the Singers table, then executes a SELECT statement to print the new values.

C#

public static async Task WriteAndReadUsingDmlCoreAsync(
    string projectId,
    string instanceId,
    string databaseId)
{
    string connectionString =
        $"Data Source=projects/{projectId}/instances/{instanceId}"
        + $"/databases/{databaseId}";

    // Create connection to Cloud Spanner.
    using (var connection =
        new SpannerConnection(connectionString))
    {
        await connection.OpenAsync();

        SpannerCommand cmd = connection.CreateDmlCommand(
           @"INSERT Singers (SingerId, FirstName, LastName)
              VALUES (11, 'Timothy', 'Campbell')");
        int rowCount = await cmd.ExecuteNonQueryAsync();
        Console.WriteLine($"{rowCount} row(s) inserted...");
        // Read newly inserted record.
        cmd = connection.CreateSelectCommand(
            @"SELECT FirstName, LastName FROM Singers
              WHERE SingerId = 11");
        using (var reader = await cmd.ExecuteReaderAsync())
        {
            while (await reader.ReadAsync())
            {
                Console.WriteLine(
                    reader.GetFieldValue<string>("FirstName") + " "

Writing commit timestamps

You use the PENDING_COMMIT_TIMESTAMP function to write the commit timestamp in a DML statement. Cloud Spanner selects the commit timestamp when the transaction commits.

The following code example uses the PENDING_COMMIT_TIMESTAMP function to write the commit timestamp in the LastUpdateTime column.

C#

public static async Task UpdateUsingDmlWithTimestampCoreAsync(
    string projectId,
    string instanceId,
    string databaseId)
{
    string connectionString =
        $"Data Source=projects/{projectId}/instances/{instanceId}"

           + "SET LastUpdateTime = PENDING_COMMIT_TIMESTAMP() "
           + "WHERE SingerId = 1");
        int rowCount = await cmd.ExecuteNonQueryAsync();
        Console.WriteLine($"{rowCount} row(s) updated...");
    }
}

Getting the query plan

You can retrieve a query plan using the Cloud Console, the client libraries, and the gcloud command-line tool.

Using Partitioned DML

Partitioned DML is designed for bulk updates and deletes, particularly periodic cleanup and backfilling.

Executing statements with the gcloud command-line tool

To execute a Partitioned DML statement, use the gcloud spanner databases execute-sql command with the --enable-partitioned-dml option. The following example updates rows in the Albums table.

gcloud spanner databases execute-sql example-db \
    --instance=test-instance --enable-partitioned-dml \
    --sql='UPDATE Albums SET MarketingBudget = 0 WHERE MarketingBudget IS NULL'

Modifying data using the client library

The following code example updates the MarketingBudget column of the Albums table.

C#

You use the ExecutePartitionedUpdateAsync() method to execute a Partitioned DML statement.

Using batch DML

If you need to avoid the extra latency incurred from multiple serial requests, use batch DML to send multiple INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statements in a single transaction:

C#

Use the connection.CreateBatchDmlCommand() method to create your batch command, use the Add method to add DML statements, and execute the statements with the ExecuteNonQueryAsync() method.

public static async Task UpdateUsingBatchDmlCoreAsync(
    string projectId,
    string instanceId,
    string databaseId)
{
    string connectionString =
        $"Data Source=projects/{projectId}/instances/{instanceId}"
        + $"/databases/{databaseId}";

    // Create connection to Cloud Spanner.
    using (var connection =
        new SpannerConnection(connectionString))
    {
        await connection.OpenAsync();

        SpannerBatchCommand cmd = connection.CreateBatchDmlCommand();
        //var cmd = new SpannerBatchCommand(connection);

        cmd.Add("INSERT INTO Albums "
            + "(SingerId, AlbumId, AlbumTitle, MarketingBudget) "
            + "VALUES (1, 3, 'Test Album Title', 10000)");

        cmd.Add("UPDATE Albums "
            + "SET MarketingBudget = MarketingBudget * 2 "
            + "WHERE SingerId = 1 and AlbumId = 3");

        IEnumerable<long> affectedRows = await cmd.ExecuteNonQueryAsync();
        Console.WriteLine(
            $"Executed {affectedRows.Count()} "
            + "SQL statements using Batch DML.");
    }
}

Go

Use the BatchUpdate() method to execute an array of DML Statement objects.


func updateUsingBatchDML(ctx context.Context, w io.Writer, client *spanner.Client) error {
	_, err := client.ReadWriteTransaction(ctx, func(ctx context.Context, txn *spanner.ReadWriteTransaction) error {
		stmts := []spanner.Statement{
			{SQL: `INSERT INTO Albums
				(SingerId, AlbumId, AlbumTitle, MarketingBudget)
				VALUES (1, 3, 'Test Album Title', 10000)`},
			{SQL: `UPDATE Albums
				SET MarketingBudget = MarketingBudget * 2
				WHERE SingerId = 1 and AlbumId = 3`},
		}
		rowCounts, err := txn.BatchUpdate(ctx, stmts)
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		fmt.Fprintf(w, "Executed %d SQL statements using Batch DML.\n", len(rowCounts))
		return nil
	})
	return err
}

Java

Use the transaction.batchUpdate() method to execute an ArrayList of multiple DML Statement objects.

static void updateUsingBatchDml(DatabaseClient dbClient) {
  dbClient
      .readWriteTransaction()
      .run(
          new TransactionCallable<Void>() {
            @Override
            public Void run(TransactionContext transaction) throws Exception {
              List<Statement> stmts = new ArrayList<Statement>();
              String sql =
                  "INSERT INTO Albums "
                      + "(SingerId, AlbumId, AlbumTitle, MarketingBudget) "
                      + "VALUES (1, 3, 'Test Album Title', 10000) ";
              stmts.add(Statement.of(sql));
              sql =
                  "UPDATE Albums "
                      + "SET MarketingBudget = MarketingBudget * 2 "
                      + "WHERE SingerId = 1 and AlbumId = 3";
              stmts.add(Statement.of(sql));
              long[] rowCounts;
              try {
                rowCounts = transaction.batchUpdate(stmts);
              } catch (SpannerBatchUpdateException e) {
                rowCounts = e.getUpdateCounts();
              }
              for (int i = 0; i < rowCounts.length; i++) {
                System.out.printf("%d record updated by stmt %d.\n", rowCounts[i], i);
              }
              return null;
            }
          });
}

Node.js

Use transaction.batchUpdate() to execute a list of DML statements.

// Imports the Google Cloud client library
const {Spanner} = require('@google-cloud/spanner');

};

const update = {
  sql: `UPDATE Albums SET MarketingBudget = MarketingBudget * 2
    WHERE SingerId = 1 and AlbumId = 3`,
};

const dmlStatements = [insert, update];

try {
  await database.runTransactionAsync(async transaction => {
    const [rowCounts] = await transaction.batchUpdate(dmlStatements);
    await transaction.commit();
    console.log(
      `Successfully executed ${rowCounts.length} SQL statements using Batch DML.`
    );
  });
} catch (err) {
  console.error('ERROR:', err);
  throw err;
} finally {
  // Close the database when finished.
  database.close();
