Ingest data from Google Cloud Storage

Use the SQL statement below to connect RisingWave to a Google Cloud Storage source.

Syntax

CREATE SOURCE [ IF NOT EXISTS ] source_name 
schema_definition
WITH (
   connector = 'gcs',
   connector_parameter = 'value', ...
)
FORMAT data_format ENCODE data_encode (
   without_header = 'true' | 'false',
   delimiter = 'delimiter'
); 

schema_definition:

(
   column_name data_type [ PRIMARY KEY ], ...
   [ PRIMARY KEY ( column_name, ... ) ]
)

Connector parameters

Field	Notes
gcs.bucket_name	Required. The name of the bucket the data source is stored in.
gcs.credential	Optional. The base64 encoded credential key. This key is obtained from the GCS service account key JSON file, and should be encoded with base64. To get this JSON file, refer to the guides of GCS documentation. To encode it with base64, run the following command: cat ~/Downloads/rwc-byoc-test-464bdd851bce.json | base64 -b 0 | pbcopy, and then paste the output as the value for this parameter. If this field is not specified, ADC (application default credentials) will be used.
match_pattern	Conditional. This field is used to find object keys in the bucket that match the given pattern. Standard Unix-style glob syntax is supported.

Other parameters

Field	Notes
data_format	Supported data format: PLAIN.
data_encode	Supported data encodes: CSV, JSON.
without_header	Whether the first line is header. Accepted values: 'true', 'false'. Default: 'true'.
delimiter	How RisingWave splits contents. For JSON encode, the delimiter is \n.

Examples

Here is an example of connecting RisingWave to a GCS source to read data.

CREATE TABLE s(
    id int,
    name varchar,
    age int,
    primary key(id)
) 
WITH (
    connector = 'gcs',
    gcs.bucket_name = 'example-bucket',
    gcs.credential = 'xxxxx'
) FORMAT PLAIN ENCODE JSON (
    without_header = 'true',
    delimiter = '\n'
);
