Resource: Database

A Cloud Spanner database.

JSON representation 
{
  "name": string,
  "state": enum (State),
  "createTime": string,
  "restoreInfo": {
    object (RestoreInfo)
  }
}
Fields
name

string

Required. The name of the database. Values are of the form projects/<project>/instances/<instance>/databases/<database>, where <database> is as specified in the CREATE DATABASE statement. This name can be passed to other API methods to identify the database.
state

enum (State)

Output only. The current database state.
createTime

string (Timestamp format)

Output only. If exists, the time at which the database creation started.

A timestamp in RFC3339 UTC "Zulu" format, with nanosecond resolution and up to nine fractional digits. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" and "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z".
restoreInfo

object (RestoreInfo)

Output only. Applicable only for restored databases. Contains information about the restore source.

State

Indicates the current state of the database.

Enums
STATE_UNSPECIFIED Not specified.
CREATING The database is still being created. Operations on the database may fail with FAILED_PRECONDITION in this state.
READY The database is fully created and ready for use.
READY_OPTIMIZING

The database is fully created and ready for use, but is still being optimized for performance and cannot handle full load.

In this state, the database still references the backup it was restore from, preventing the backup from being deleted. When optimizations are complete, the full performance of the database will be restored, and the database will transition to READY state.

RestoreInfo

Information about the database restore.

JSON representation 
{
  "sourceType": enum (RestoreSourceType),
  "backupInfo": {
    object (BackupInfo)
  }
}
Fields
sourceType

enum (RestoreSourceType)

The type of the restore source.
backupInfo

object (BackupInfo)

Information about the backup used to restore the database. The backup may no longer exist.

RestoreSourceType

Indicates the type of the restore source.

createTime

string (Timestamp format)

The backup contains an externally consistent copy of sourceDatabase at the timestamp specified by createTime.

A timestamp in RFC3339 UTC "Zulu" format, with nanosecond resolution and up to nine fractional digits. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z" and "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z".
