This library provides fast implementation of the BigQuery Client as a database/sql drvier.

DSN Data Source Name

The BigQuery driver accepts the following DSN

• 'bigquery://projectID/[location/]datasetID?queryString'

  Where queryString can optionally configure the following option:

  • credURL: (url encoded) local location or URL supported by Scy
  • credKey: optional (url encoded) Scy secret manager key or key location
  • credID: Scy resource secret ID
  • credJSON: rawURL base64 encoded cred JSON (not recommended)
  • endpoint
  • userAgent
  • apiKey
  • quotaProject
  • scopes

Since this library uses Google Cloud API you can pass your credentials via GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable.

Usage:

package main

import (
	"database/sql"
	"fmt"
	"context"
	"log"
	_ "github.com/viant/bigquery"
)

type Participant struct {
	Name   string
	Splits []float64
}

func main() {

	db, err := sql.Open("bigquery", "bigquery://myProjectID/mydatasetID")
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer db.Close()

	SQL := `WITH races AS (
		  SELECT "800M" AS race,
		    [STRUCT("Ben" as name, [23.4, 26.3] as splits), 
		 	 STRUCT("Frank" as name, [23.4, 26.3] as splits)
			]
		       AS participants)
		SELECT
		  race,
		  participant
		FROM races r
		CROSS JOIN UNNEST(r.participants) as participant`

	rows, err := db.QueryContext(context.Background(), SQL)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer rows.Close()
	for rows.Next() {
		if err := rows.Err(); err != nil {
			log.Fatal(err)
		}
		var race string
		var participant Participant
		err = rows.Scan(&race, &participant)
		fmt.Printf("fetched: %v %+v\n", race, participant)
		if err != nil {
			log.Fatal(err)
		}
	}
}

Data Ingestion (Load/Stream)

This driver implements LOAD/STREAM operation with the following SQL:

Loading data

To load data register a reader for supported source format, followed by LOAD SQL.

LOAD 'Reader:<SOURCE_FORMAT>:<READER_ID>' DATA INTO TABLE myproject.mydataset.mytable

The following snippet register READER_ID

 err := reader.Register(readerID, myReader)

The following code loads CSV data

package mypkg

import (
	"context"
	"database/sql"
	"fmt"
	"github.com/viant/bigquery/reader"
	"log"
	"strings"
)

func ExampleOfCSVLoad() {
	projectID := "my-gcp-project"
	db, err := sql.Open("bigquery", fmt.Sprintf("bigquery://%v/test", projectID))
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	readerID := "123456"
	csvReader := strings.NewReader("ID,Name,Desc\n1,Name 1,Test\n2,Name 2,Test 2")
	err = reader.Register(readerID, csvReader)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer reader.Unregister(readerID)
	SQL := fmt.Sprintf(`LOAD 'Reader:csv:%v' DATA INTO TABLE mytable`, readerID)
	result, err := db.ExecContext(context.TODO(), SQL)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()
	fmt.Printf("loaded: %v rows", affected)
}

Loading application data

The following code loads CSV data

package mypkg

import (
	"context"
	"database/sql"
	"fmt"
	"github.com/viant/bigquery/reader"
	"github.com/viant/sqlx/io/load/reader/parquet"
	"github.com/google/uuid"
	"log"
)

type Record struct {
	ID     int     `parquet:"id,plain,optional"`
	Name   string  `parquet:"name,plain,optional"`
	Active bool    `parquet:"active,plain,optional"`
	Amount float64 `parquet:"amount,plain,optional"`
}

func ExampleOfAppDataLoad() {
	projectID := "my-gcp-project"
	db, err := sql.Open("bigquery", fmt.Sprintf("bigquery://%v/test", projectID))
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	var records = []*Record{
		{
			ID:     1,
			Name:   "record 1",
			Amount: 12.2,
		},
		{
			ID:     2,
			Name:   "record 2",
			Amount: 12.3,
		},
	}
	readerID := uuid.New().String()
    parquetReader, err := parquet.NewReader(records)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
	err = reader.Register(readerID, parquetReader)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	defer reader.Unregister(readerID)
	SQL := fmt.Sprintf(`LOAD 'Reader:parquet:%v' DATA INTO TABLE mytable`, readerID)
	result, err := db.ExecContext(context.TODO(), SQL)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()
	fmt.Printf("loaded: %v rows", affected)
}

Load option control

To customize Load you can inline JobConfigurationLoad you can as JSON as a hint LOAD 'Reader:<SOURCE_FORMAT>:<READER_ID>' /*+ <HINT> +*/ DATA INTO TABLE mytable for example:

LOAD 'Reader:CSV:201F973D-9BAB-4E0A-880F-7830B876F210' /*+ {
    "AllowJaggedRows": true,
    "AllowQuotedNewlines":true
  } +*/  DATA INTO TABLE mytable

Benchmark

Benchmark runs 3 times the following queries:

• primitive types:

   SELECT state,gender,year,name,number 
   FROM `bigquery-public-data.usa_names.usa_1910_2013` LIMIT 10000

• complex type (repeated string/repeated record)

   SELECT  t.publication_number, t.inventor, t.assignee, t.description_localized 
   FROM `patents-public-data.patents.publications_202105` t ORDER BY 1 LIMIT 1000

In both case database/sql driver is faster and allocate way less memory than GCP BigQuery API Client
