google.cloud.bigquery.job.ExtractJobConfig

class google.cloud.bigquery.job.ExtractJobConfig(**kwargs)

Configuration options for extract jobs.

All properties in this class are optional. Values which are None -> server defaults. Set properties on the constructed configuration by using the property name as the name of a keyword argument.

__init__(**kwargs)

Initialize self. See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.

Methods

__init__(**kwargs)	Initialize self.
from_api_repr(resource)	Factory: construct a job configuration given its API representation
to_api_repr()	Build an API representation of the job config.

Attributes

compression	Compression type to use for exported files.
destination_format	Exported file format.
field_delimiter	Delimiter to use between fields in the exported data.
labels	Labels for the job.
print_header	Print a header row in the exported data.
use_avro_logical_types	For loads of Avro data, governs whether Avro logical types are converted to their corresponding BigQuery types (e.g.

property compression

Compression type to use for exported files.

Type

str

classmethod from_api_repr(resource)

Factory: construct a job configuration given its API representation

Parameters

resource (Dict) – An extract job configuration in the same representation as is returned from the API.

Returns

Configuration parsed from resource.

Return type

google.cloud.bigquery.job._JobConfig

property labels

Labels for the job.

This method always returns a dict. To change a job’s labels, modify the dict, then call Client.update_job. To delete a label, set its value to None before updating.

Raises

See https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/reference/rest/v2/Job#JobConfigurationExtract.FIELDS.print_header

Type

bool

to_api_repr()

Build an API representation of the job config.

Returns

A dictionary in the format used by the BigQuery API.

Return type

Dict

property use_avro_logical_types

For loads of Avro data, governs whether Avro logical types are converted to their corresponding BigQuery types (e.g. TIMESTAMP) rather than raw types (e.g. INTEGER).

Type

bool
