DB-API Reference

Google BigQuery implementation of the Database API Specification v2.0.

This module implements the Python Database API Specification v2.0 (DB-API) for Google BigQuery.

google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.Binary(string)

Contruct a DB-API binary value.

• Parameters

  string (str) – A string to encode as a binary value.

• Returns

  The UTF-8 encoded bytes representing the string.

• Return type

  bytes

class google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.Connection(client)

Bases: object

DB-API Connection to Google BigQuery.

• Parameters

  client (google.cloud.bigquery.Client) – A client used to connect to BigQuery.

close()

No-op.

commit()

No-op.

cursor()

Return a new cursor object.

• Returns

  A DB-API cursor that uses this connection.

• Return type

  google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.Cursor

class google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.Cursor(connection)

Bases: object

DB-API Cursor to Google BigQuery.

• Parameters

  connection (google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.Connection) – A DB-API connection to Google BigQuery.

close()

No-op.

execute(operation, parameters=None, job_id=None, job_config=None)

Prepare and execute a database operation.

NOTE: When setting query parameters, values which are "text" (unicode in Python2, str in Python3) will use the ‘STRING’ BigQuery type. Values which are "bytes" (str in Python2, bytes in Python3), will use using the ‘BYTES’ type.

A ~datetime.datetime parameter without timezone information uses the ‘DATETIME’ BigQuery type (example: Global Pi Day Celebration March 14, 2017 at 1:59pm). A ~datetime.datetime parameter with timezone information uses the ‘TIMESTAMP’ BigQuery type (example: a wedding on April 29, 2011 at 11am, British Summer Time).

For more information about BigQuery data types, see: https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/standard-sql/data-types

STRUCT/RECORD and REPEATED query parameters are not yet supported. See: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/google-cloud-python/issues/3524

• Parameters

  • operation (str) – A Google BigQuery query string.

  • parameters (Union[Mapping[str , **Any], **Sequence[Any]]) – (Optional) dictionary or sequence of parameter values.

  • job_id (str) – (Optional) The job_id to use. If not set, a job ID is generated at random.

  • job_config (google.cloud.bigquery.job.QueryJobConfig) – (Optional) Extra configuration options for the query job.

executemany(operation, seq_of_parameters)

Prepare and execute a database operation multiple times.

• Parameters

  • operation (str) – A Google BigQuery query string.

  • seq_of_parameters (Union[Sequence[Mapping[str , **Any], **Sequence[Any]]]) – Sequence of many sets of parameter values.

fetchall()

Fetch all remaining results from the last execute\*() call.

• Returns

  A list of all the rows in the results.

• Return type

  List[Tuple]

• Raises

  google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.InterfaceError – if called before execute().

fetchmany(size=None)

Fetch multiple results from the last execute\*() call.

NOTE: The size parameter is not used for the request/response size. Set the arraysize attribute before calling execute() to set the batch size.

• Parameters

  size (int) – (Optional) Maximum number of rows to return. Defaults to the arraysize property value. If arraysize is not set, it defaults to 1.

• Returns

  A list of rows.

• Return type

  List[Tuple]

• Raises

  google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.InterfaceError – if called before execute().

fetchone()

Fetch a single row from the results of the last execute\*() call.

• Returns

  A tuple representing a row or None if no more data is available.

• Return type

  Tuple

• Raises

  google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.InterfaceError – if called before execute().

setinputsizes(sizes)

No-op.

setoutputsize(size, column=None)

No-op.

google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.Date()

alias of datetime.date

google.cloud.bigquery.dbapi.DateFromTicks(timestamp, /)
