Constructor

new DataCatalogClient(optionsopt, gaxInstanceopt)

Construct an instance of DataCatalogClient.

Parameters:

Name Type Attributes Description

options

object

The configuration object. The options accepted by the constructor are described in detail in this document. The common options are:

Properties

Name Type Attributes Description

credentials

object

Credentials object.

Properties

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`client_email`	string	<optional>
`private_key`	string	<optional>

email

string

Account email address. Required when using a .pem or .p12 keyFilename.

keyFilename

string

Full path to the a .json, .pem, or .p12 key downloaded from the Google Developers Console. If you provide a path to a JSON file, the projectId option below is not necessary. NOTE: .pem and .p12 require you to specify options.email as well.

port

number

The port on which to connect to the remote host.

projectId

string

The project ID from the Google Developer's Console, e.g. 'grape-spaceship-123'. We will also check the environment variable GCLOUD_PROJECT for your project ID. If your app is running in an environment which supports Application Default Credentials, your project ID will be detected automatically.

apiEndpoint

string

The domain name of the API remote host.

clientConfig

gax.ClientConfig

Client configuration override. Follows the structure of gapicConfig.

fallback

boolean

Use HTTP/1.1 REST mode. For more information, please check the documentation.

gaxInstance

gax

loaded instance of google-gax. Useful if you need to avoid loading the default gRPC version and want to use the fallback HTTP implementation. Load only fallback version and pass it to the constructor: const gax = require('google-gax/build/src/fallback'); // avoids loading google-gax with gRPC const client = new DataCatalogClient({fallback: true}, gax);

Members

apiEndpoint

The DNS address for this API service.

apiEndpoint

The DNS address for this API service - same as servicePath.

port

The port for this API service.

scopes

The scopes needed to make gRPC calls for every method defined in this service.

servicePath

The DNS address for this API service.

Methods

close() → {Promise}

Terminate the gRPC channel and close the client.

The client will no longer be usable and all future behavior is undefined.

Returns:

Type	Description
Promise	A promise that resolves when the client is closed.

entryGroupPath(project, location, entry_group) → {string}

Return a fully-qualified entryGroup resource name string.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`project`	string
`location`	string
`entry_group`	string

Returns:

Type	Description
string	Resource name string.

entryPath(project, location, entry_group, entry) → {string}

Return a fully-qualified entry resource name string.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description
`project`	string
`location`	string
`entry_group`	string
`entry`	string

Returns:

Type	Description
string	Resource name string.

getProjectId() → {Promise}

Return the project ID used by this class.

Returns:

Type	Description
Promise	A promise that resolves to string containing the project ID.

initialize() → {Promise}

Initialize the client. Performs asynchronous operations (such as authentication) and prepares the client. This function will be called automatically when any class method is called for the first time, but if you need to initialize it before calling an actual method, feel free to call initialize() directly.

You can await on this method if you want to make sure the client is initialized.

Returns:

Type	Description
Promise	A promise that resolves to an authenticated service stub.

listEntriesAsync(request, optionsopt) → {Object}

Equivalent to listEntries, but returns an iterable object.

for-await-of syntax is used with the iterable to get response elements on-demand.

Parameters:

Name Type Attributes Description

request

Object

The request object that will be sent.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
`parent`	string	Required. The name of the entry group that contains the entries, which can be provided in URL format. Example: projects/{project_id}/locations/{location}/entryGroups/{entry_group_id}
`pageSize`	number	The maximum number of items to return. Default is 10. Max limit is 1000. Throws an invalid argument for `page_size > 1000`.
`pageToken`	string	Token that specifies which page is requested. If empty, the first page is returned.
`readMask`	google.protobuf.FieldMask	The fields to return for each Entry. If not set or empty, all fields are returned. For example, setting read_mask to contain only one path "name" will cause ListEntries to return a list of Entries with only "name" field.

options

object

Call options. See CallOptions for more details.

Returns:

Type	Description
Object	An iterable Object that allows async iteration. When you iterate the returned iterable, each element will be an object representing Entry. The API will be called under the hood as needed, once per the page, so you can stop the iteration when you don't need more results. Please see the documentation for more details and examples.

searchCatalogStream(request, optionsopt) → {Stream}

Equivalent to method.name.toCamelCase(), but returns a NodeJS Stream object.

Parameters:

Name Type Attributes Description

request

Object

The request object that will be sent.

Properties

Name	Type	Attributes	Description
`scope`	google.cloud.datacatalog.v1beta1.SearchCatalogRequest.Scope		Required. The scope of this search request. A `scope` that has empty `include_org_ids`, `include_project_ids` AND false `include_gcp_public_datasets` is considered invalid. Data Catalog will return an error in such a case.
`query`	string	<optional>	Optional. The query string in search query syntax. An empty query string will result in all data assets (in the specified scope) that the user has access to. Query strings can be simple as "x" or more qualified as: name:x column:x description:y Note: Query tokens need to have a minimum of 3 characters for substring matching to work correctly. See Data Catalog Search Syntax for more information.
`pageSize`	number		Number of results in the search page. If <=0 then defaults to 10. Max limit for page_size is 1000. Throws an invalid argument for page_size > 1000.
`pageToken`	string	<optional>	Optional. Pagination token returned in an earlier SearchCatalogResponse.next_page_token, which indicates that this is a continuation of a prior SearchCatalogRequest call, and that the system should return the next page of data. If empty, the first page is returned.
`orderBy`	string		Specifies the ordering of results, currently supported case-sensitive choices are: * `relevance`, only supports descending * `last_modified_timestamp [asc\|desc]`, defaults to descending if not specified * `default` that can only be descending If not specified, defaults to `relevance` descending.

Returns:

Type Description

Stream

An object stream which emits an object representing SearchCatalogResult on 'data' event. The client library will perform auto-pagination by default: it will call the API as many times as needed. Note that it can affect your quota. We recommend using searchCatalogAsync() method described below for async iteration which you can stop as needed. Please see the documentation for more details and examples.
