BigQueryConfig

Summary​

Configuration used to reference a BigQuery table or query.

The BigQueryConfig class is used to create a reference to a BigQuery table. You can also create a reference to a query on one or more tables, which will be registered in Tecton in a similar way as a view is registered in other data systems.

This class is used as an input to a BatchSource's parameter batch_config. Declaring this configuration class alone will not register a Data Source. Instead, declare as a part of BatchSource that takes this configuration class instance as a parameter.

Attributes​

NameData TypeDescription
data_delayHow long they wait after the end of the batch schedule period before starting, typically to ensure that all data has landed.

Methods​

NameDescription
__init__(...)Instantiates a new BigQueryConfig. One of table and query should be specified when creating this file.

__init__(...)​

Instantiates a new BigQueryConfig. One of table and query should be specified when creating this file.

Parameters

  • project_id (Optional[str]) - The BigQuery Project ID for this Data source. Default: None

  • dataset (Optional[str]) - The BigQuery Dataset for this Data source. Default: None

  • location (Optional[str]) - Optional geographic location of the dataset, such as "US" or "EU". This is for ensuring that queries are run in the same location as the data. Default: None

  • table (Optional[str]) - The table for this Data source. Only one of table and query must be specified. Default: None

  • query (Optional[str]) - The query for this Data source. Only one of table and query must be specified. Default: None

  • timestamp_field (Optional[str]) - The timestamp column in this data source that should be used by FilteredSource to filter data from this source, before any feature view transformations are applied. Only required if this source is used with FilteredSource. Default: None

  • data_delay (timedelta) - This parameter configures how long jobs wait after the end of the batch_schedule period before starting, typically to ensure that all data has landed. For example, if a feature view has a batch_schedule of 1 day and one of the data source inputs has data_delay=timedelta(hours=1) set, then incremental materialization jobs will run at 01:00 UTC. Default: 0:00:00

  • credentials (Optional[Secret]) - Optional service account credentials used to connect to BigQuery. Default: None

Returns

A BigQueryConfig class instance.

Example​

from datetime import datetime, timedelta
from tecton import BigQueryConfig, BatchSource, Secret


# Declare BigQueryConfig instance object that can be used as an argument in BatchSource
bq_config = BigQueryConfig(
project_id="bigquery-public-data",
dataset="san_francisco_bikeshare",
location="US",
table="bikeshare_trips",
timestamp_field="start_date",
credentials=Secret(scope="your-secrets-scope", key="your-bq-service-account-key"), # Optional
)

# Use in the BatchSource
ds = BatchSource(name="sf_bike_trips_ds", batch_config=bq_config)
tecton_df = ds.get_dataframe(start_time=datetime(2018, 1, 1) - timedelta(days=1), end_time=datetime(2018, 1, 1))
tecton_df.to_pandas().head(10)
