Example:

# my_database: glue.Database

glue.Table(self, "MyTable",
    database=my_database,
    table_name="my_table",
    columns=[glue.Column(
        name="col1",
        type=glue.Schema.STRING
    )],
    partition_keys=[glue.Column(
        name="year",
        type=glue.Schema.SMALL_INT
    ), glue.Column(
        name="month",
        type=glue.Schema.SMALL_INT
    )],
    data_format=glue.DataFormat.JSON
)
Parameters

  • scope (Construct) –

  • id (str) –

  • columns (Sequence[Union[Column, Dict[str, Any]]]) – (experimental) Columns of the table.

  • database (IDatabase) – (experimental) Database in which to store the table.

  • data_format (DataFormat) – (experimental) Storage type of the table’s data.

  • table_name (str) – (experimental) Name of the table.

  • bucket (Optional[IBucket]) – (experimental) S3 bucket in which to store data. Default: one is created for you

  • compressed (Optional[bool]) – (experimental) Indicates whether the table’s data is compressed or not. Default: false

  • description (Optional[str]) – (experimental) Description of the table. Default: generated

  • encryption (Optional[TableEncryption]) – (experimental) The kind of encryption to secure the data with. You can only provide this option if you are not explicitly passing in a bucket. If you choose SSE-KMS, you can provide an un-managed KMS key with encryptionKey. If you choose CSE-KMS, you must provide an un-managed KMS key with encryptionKey. Default: Unencrypted

  • encryption_key (Optional[IKey]) – (experimental) External KMS key to use for bucket encryption. The encryption property must be SSE-KMS or CSE-KMS. Default: key is managed by KMS.

  • partition_indexes (Optional[Sequence[Union[PartitionIndex, Dict[str, Any]]]]) – (experimental) Partition indexes on the table. A maximum of 3 indexes are allowed on a table. Keys in the index must be part of the table’s partition keys. Default: table has no partition indexes

  • partition_keys (Optional[Sequence[Union[Column, Dict[str, Any]]]]) – (experimental) Partition columns of the table. Default: table is not partitioned

  • s3_prefix (Optional[str]) – (experimental) S3 prefix under which table objects are stored. Default: - No prefix. The data will be stored under the root of the bucket.

  • stored_as_sub_directories (Optional[bool]) – (experimental) Indicates whether the table data is stored in subdirectories. Default: false

Methods

add_partition_index(*, key_names, index_name=None)

(experimental) Add a partition index to the table.

You can have a maximum of 3 partition indexes to a table. Partition index keys must be a subset of the table’s partition keys.

Parameters

  • key_names (Sequence[str]) – (experimental) The partition key names that comprise the partition index. The names must correspond to a name in the table’s partition keys.

  • index_name (Optional[str]) – (experimental) The name of the partition index. Default: - a name will be generated for you.

Return type

None

apply_removal_policy(policy)

Apply the given removal policy to this resource.

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you’ve removed it from the CDK application or because you’ve made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN).

Parameters

policy (RemovalPolicy) –

Return type

None

grant(grantee, actions)

env

The environment this resource belongs to.

For resources that are created and managed by the CDK (generally, those created by creating new class instances like Role, Bucket, etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to; however, for imported resources (those obtained from static methods like fromRoleArn, fromBucketName, etc.), that might be different than the stack they were imported into.

partition_indexes

(experimental) This table’s partition indexes.

Stability

experimental

partition_keys

(experimental) This table’s partition keys if the table is partitioned.

Stability

experimental

s3_prefix

(experimental) S3 Key Prefix under which this table’s files are stored in S3.
