Methods

__construct

Create a BigQuery client.

Parameters
NameDescription
configarray

Configuration options.

↳ apiEndpointstring

The hostname with optional port to use in place of the default service endpoint. Example: foobar.com or foobar.com:1234.

↳ projectIdstring

The project ID from the Google Developer's Console.

↳ authCacheCacheItemPoolInterface

A cache for storing access tokens. Defaults to a simple in memory implementation.

↳ authCacheOptionsarray

Cache configuration options.

↳ authHttpHandlercallable

A handler used to deliver Psr7 requests specifically for authentication.

↳ credentialsFetcherFetchAuthTokenInterface

A credentials fetcher instance.

↳ httpHandlercallable

A handler used to deliver Psr7 requests. Only valid for requests sent over REST.

↳ keyFilearray

The contents of the service account credentials .json file retrieved from the Google Developer's Console. Ex: json_decode(file_get_contents($path), true).

↳ keyFilePathstring

The full path to your service account credentials .json file retrieved from the Google Developers Console.

↳ requestTimeoutfloat

Seconds to wait before timing out the request. Defaults to 0 with REST and 60 with gRPC.

↳ retriesint

Number of retries for a failed request. Defaults to 3.

↳ scopesarray

Scopes to be used for the request.

↳ quotaProjectstring

Specifies a user project to bill for access charges associated with the request.

↳ returnInt64AsObjectbool

If true, 64 bit integers will be returned as a Google\Cloud\Core\Int64 object for 32 bit platform compatibility. Defaults to false.

↳ locationstring

If provided, determines the default geographic location used when creating datasets and managing jobs. Please note: This is only required for jobs started outside of the US and EU regions. Also, if location metadata has already been fetched over the network it will take precedent over this setting (by calling Table::reload(), for example).

query

Returns a BigQuery job configuration.

The job configuration is passed to either BigQueryClient::runQuery() or BigQueryClient::startQuery(). A configuration can be built using fluent setters or by providing a full set of options at once.

Unless otherwise specified, all configuration options will default based on the query job configuration except for configuration.query.useLegacySql, which defaults to false in this client.

Example:

$queryJobConfig = $bigQuery->query(
    'SELECT commit FROM `bigquery-public-data._repos.commits` LIMIT 100'
);
// Set create disposition using fluent setters.
$queryJobConfig = $bigQuery->query(
    'SELECT commit FROM `bigquery-public-data._repos.commits` LIMIT 100'
)->createDisposition('CREATE_NEVER');
// This is equivalent to the above example, using array configuration
// instead of fluent setters.
$queryJobConfig = $bigQuery->query(
    'SELECT commit FROM `bigquery-public-data._repos.commits` LIMIT 100',
    [
        'configuration' => [
            'query' => [
                'createDisposition' => 'CREATE_NEVER'
            ]
        ]
    ]
);
// Set a region to run the job in.
$queryJobConfig = $bigQuery->query(
    'SELECT name FROM `my_project.users_dataset.users` LIMIT 100'
)->location('asia-northeast1');
