Class TableMetadata

    • Method Detail

      • name

        public final String name()

        The name of the table.

        Returns:
        The name of the table.
      • createTime

        public final Instant createTime()

        The time that the table was created.

        Returns:
        The time that the table was created.
      • lastAccessTime

        public final Instant lastAccessTime()

        The last time the table was accessed.

        Returns:
        The last time the table was accessed.
      • tableType

        public final String tableType()

        The type of table. In Athena, only EXTERNAL_TABLE is supported.

        Returns:
        The type of table. In Athena, only EXTERNAL_TABLE is supported.
      • hasColumns

        public final boolean hasColumns()
        For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the Columns property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
      • columns

        public final List<Column> columns()

        A list of the columns in the table.

        Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.

        This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasColumns() method.

        Returns:
        A list of the columns in the table.
      • hasPartitionKeys

        public final boolean hasPartitionKeys()
        For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the PartitionKeys property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
      • partitionKeys

        public final List<Column> partitionKeys()

        A list of the partition keys in the table.

        Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.

        This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasPartitionKeys() method.

        Returns:
        A list of the partition keys in the table.
      • hasParameters

        public final boolean hasParameters()
        For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the Parameters property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
      • parameters

        public final Map<String,​String> parameters()

        A set of custom key/value pairs for table properties.

        Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.

        This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasParameters() method.

        Returns:
        A set of custom key/value pairs for table properties.
      • hashCode

        public final int hashCode()
        Overrides:
        hashCode in class Object
      • equals

        public final boolean equals​(Object obj)
        Overrides:
        equals in class Object
      • toString

        public final String toString()
        Returns a string representation of this object. This is useful for testing and debugging. Sensitive data will be redacted from this string using a placeholder value.
        Overrides:
        toString in class Object
      • getValueForField

        public final <T> Optional<T> getValueForField​(String fieldName,
                                                      Class<T> clazz)
