Class TableInput

    • Method Detail

      • name

        public final String name()

        The table name. For Hive compatibility, this is folded to lowercase when it is stored.

        Returns:
        The table name. For Hive compatibility, this is folded to lowercase when it is stored.
      • description

        public final String description()

        A description of the table.

        Returns:
        A description of the table.
      • owner

        public final String owner()

        The table owner. Included for Apache Hive compatibility. Not used in the normal course of Glue operations.

        Returns:
        The table owner. Included for Apache Hive compatibility. Not used in the normal course of Glue operations.
      • lastAccessTime

        public final Instant lastAccessTime()

        The last time that the table was accessed.

        Returns:
        The last time that the table was accessed.
      • lastAnalyzedTime

        public final Instant lastAnalyzedTime()

        The last time that column statistics were computed for this table.

        Returns:
        The last time that column statistics were computed for this table.
      • retention

        public final Integer retention()

        The retention time for this table.

        Returns:
        The retention time for this table.
      • storageDescriptor

        public final StorageDescriptor storageDescriptor()

        A storage descriptor containing information about the physical storage of this table.

        Returns:
        A storage descriptor containing information about the physical storage of this 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 columns by which the table is partitioned. Only primitive types are supported as partition keys.

        When you create a table used by Amazon Athena, and you do not specify any partitionKeys, you must at least set the value of partitionKeys to an empty list. For example:

        "PartitionKeys": []

        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 columns by which the table is partitioned. Only primitive types are supported as partition keys.

        When you create a table used by Amazon Athena, and you do not specify any partitionKeys, you must at least set the value of partitionKeys to an empty list. For example:

        "PartitionKeys": []

      • viewOriginalText

        public final String viewOriginalText()

        Included for Apache Hive compatibility. Not used in the normal course of Glue operations. If the table is a VIRTUAL_VIEW, certain Athena configuration encoded in base64.

        Returns:
        Included for Apache Hive compatibility. Not used in the normal course of Glue operations. If the table is a VIRTUAL_VIEW, certain Athena configuration encoded in base64.
      • viewExpandedText

        public final String viewExpandedText()

        Included for Apache Hive compatibility. Not used in the normal course of Glue operations.

        Returns:
        Included for Apache Hive compatibility. Not used in the normal course of Glue operations.
      • tableType

        public final String tableType()

        The type of this table. Glue will create tables with the EXTERNAL_TABLE type. Other services, such as Athena, may create tables with additional table types.

        Glue related table types:

        EXTERNAL_TABLE

        Hive compatible attribute - indicates a non-Hive managed table.

        GOVERNED

        Used by Lake Formation. The Glue Data Catalog understands GOVERNED.

        Returns:
        The type of this table. Glue will create tables with the EXTERNAL_TABLE type. Other services, such as Athena, may create tables with additional table types.

        Glue related table types:

        EXTERNAL_TABLE

        Hive compatible attribute - indicates a non-Hive managed table.

        GOVERNED

        Used by Lake Formation. The Glue Data Catalog understands GOVERNED.

      • 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()

        These key-value pairs define properties associated with 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 hasParameters() method.

        Returns:
        These key-value pairs define properties associated with the table.
      • targetTable

        public final TableIdentifier targetTable()

        A TableIdentifier structure that describes a target table for resource linking.

        Returns:
        A TableIdentifier structure that describes a target table for resource linking.
      • viewDefinition

        public final ViewDefinitionInput viewDefinition()

        A structure that contains all the information that defines the view, including the dialect or dialects for the view, and the query.

        Returns:
        A structure that contains all the information that defines the view, including the dialect or dialects for the view, and the query.
      • 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)
