About

A bigtable-sql tool executes a pre-defined SQL statement against a Bigtable instance. It's compatible with any of the following sources:

bigtable

GoogleSQL

Bigtable supports SQL queries. The integration with Toolbox supports googlesql dialect, the specified SQL statement is executed as a data manipulation language (DML) statements, and specified parameters will inserted according to their name: e.g. @name.

Example

tools:
 search_user_by_id_or_name:
    kind: bigtable-sql
    source: my-bigtable-instance
    statement: |
      SELECT 
        TO_INT64(cf[ 'id' ]) as id, 
        CAST(cf[ 'name' ] AS string) as name, 
      FROM 
        % s 
      WHERE 
        TO_INT64(cf[ 'id' ]) = @id 
        OR CAST(cf[ 'name' ] AS string) = @name;
    description: |
      Use this tool to get information for a specific user.
      Takes an id number or a name and returns info on the user.

      Example:
      {{
          "id": 123,
          "name": "Alice",
      }}
    parameters:
      - name: id
        type: integer
        description: User ID
      - name: name
        type: string
        description: Name of the user

Tips

Bigtable Studio is a useful to explore and manage your Bigtable data. If you're unfamiliar with the query syntax, Query Builder lets you build a query, run it against a table, and then view the results in the console.
Some Python libraries limit the use of underscore columns such as _key. A workaround would be to leverage Bigtable Logical Views to rename the columns.
