如何从 bigquery 中提取 csv 并将其发送到具有 python 的外部服务器？

Question

I would like to automate a csv file extraction process from Google BigQuery to a Google Cloud Storage Bucket, and from the latter to an external server with two Python scripts, could you help me please? I would appreciate it.

Answer 1

For extracting from BigQuery in Python, you can use the Python Client for Google BigQuery .

The below snippet based on this repository should get you going:

# client = bigquery.Client()
# bucket_name = 'my-bucket'
project = "bigquery-public-data"
dataset_id = "samples"
table_id = "shakespeare"

destination_uri = "gs://{}/{}".format(bucket_name, "shakespeare.csv")
dataset_ref = bigquery.DatasetReference(project, dataset_id)
table_ref = dataset_ref.table(table_id)

extract_job = client.extract_table(
    table_ref,
    destination_uri,
    # Location must match that of the source table.
    location="US",
)  # API request
extract_job.result()  # Waits for job to complete.

print(
    "Exported {}:{}.{} to {}".format(project, dataset_id, table_id, destination_uri)
)

In order to post the export to another server, you can use the Cloud Storage Client Library for Python to post the CSV file to your server or service of choice.

Answer 2

As per my knowledge, BigQuery can't export/download query result to GCS or Local File. You can keep it in a temporary / stagging table and then use code like below to export to gcs:

https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/exporting-data#exporting_table_data

So you can put this in a container and deploy it as cloudrun service and call this from cloud scheduler.
