Methods

__construct

Create a BigQuery client.

Parameters
Name Description
config array

Configuration options.
↳ apiEndpoint string

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

The project ID from the Google Developer's Console.
↳ authCache CacheItemPoolInterface

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

Cache configuration options.
↳ authHttpHandler callable

A handler used to deliver Psr7 requests specifically for authentication.
↳ credentialsFetcher FetchAuthTokenInterface

A credentials fetcher instance.
↳ httpHandler callable

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

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

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

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

Number of retries for a failed request. Defaults to 3.
↳ scopes array

Scopes to be used for the request.
↳ quotaProject string

Specifies a user project to bill for access charges associated with the request.
↳ returnInt64AsObject bool

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

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.github_repos.commits` LIMIT 100'
);

// Set create disposition using fluent setters.
$queryJobConfig = $bigQuery->query(
    'SELECT commit FROM `bigquery-public-data.github_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.github_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');
