CLI

AWS CLI

To delete a job

The following delete-job example deletes a job that is no longer needed.

aws glue delete-job \
    --job-name my-testing-job

Output:

{
    "JobName": "my-testing-job"
}

For more information, see Working with Jobs on the AWS Glue Console in the AWS Glue Developer Guide.

• For API details, see DeleteJob in AWS CLI Command Reference.

# The `GlueWrapper` class serves as a wrapper around the AWS Glue API, providing a simplified interface for common operations.
# It encapsulates the functionality of the AWS SDK for Glue and provides methods for interacting with Glue crawlers, databases, tables, jobs, and S3 resources.
# The class initializes with a Glue client and a logger, allowing it to make API calls and log any errors or informational messages.
