[required] The source
parameter accepts an S3 URI that identifies a single file,
multiple files, a folder, or multiple folders. Neptune loads every data
file in any folder that is specified.
The URI can be in any of the following formats.
s3://(bucket_name)/(object-key-name)
https://s3.amazonaws.com/(bucket_name)/(object-key-name)
https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/(bucket_name)/(object-key-name)
The object-key-name
element of the URI is equivalent to the
prefix
parameter in an S3
ListObjects
API call. It identifies all the objects in the specified S3 bucket whose
names begin with that prefix. That can be a single file or folder, or
multiple files and/or folders.
The specified folder or folders can contain multiple vertex files and multiple edge files.
[required] The format of the data. For more information about data formats for the
Neptune Loader
command, see Load Data Formats.
Allowed values
csv
for the Gremlin CSV data format.
opencypher
for the openCypher CSV data format.
ntriples
for the N-Triples RDF data format.
nquads
for the N-Quads RDF data format.
rdfxml
for the RDF\XML RDF data format.
turtle
for the Turtle RDF data format.
[required] The Amazon region of the S3 bucket. This must match the Amazon Region of the DB cluster.
[required] The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for an IAM role to be assumed by the Neptune DB instance for access to the S3 bucket. The IAM role ARN provided here should be attached to the DB cluster (see Adding the IAM Role to an Amazon Neptune Cluster.
The load job mode.
Allowed values: RESUME
, NEW
, AUTO
.
Default value: AUTO
.
RESUME
– In RESUME mode, the loader looks for a previous load
from this source, and if it finds one, resumes that load job. If no
previous load job is found, the loader stops.
The loader avoids reloading files that were successfully loaded in a previous job. It only tries to process failed files. If you dropped previously loaded data from your Neptune cluster, that data is not reloaded in this mode. If a previous load job loaded all files from the same source successfully, nothing is reloaded, and the loader returns success.
NEW
– In NEW mode, the creates a new load request regardless
of any previous loads. You can use this mode to reload all the data
from a source after dropping previously loaded data from your
Neptune cluster, or to load new data available at the same source.
AUTO
– In AUTO mode, the loader looks for a previous load job
from the same source, and if it finds one, resumes that job, just as
in RESUME
mode.
If the loader doesn't find a previous load job from the same source,
it loads all data from the source, just as in NEW
mode.
failOnError
– A flag to toggle a complete stop on an error.
Allowed values: "TRUE"
, "FALSE"
.
Default value: "TRUE"
.
When this parameter is set to "FALSE"
, the loader tries to load all
the data in the location specified, skipping any entries with errors.
When this parameter is set to "TRUE"
, the loader stops as soon as it
encounters an error. Data loaded up to that point persists.
The optional parallelism
parameter can be set to reduce the number of
threads used by the bulk load process.
Allowed values:
LOW
– The number of threads used is the number of available
vCPUs divided by 8.
MEDIUM
– The number of threads used is the number of available
vCPUs divided by 2.
HIGH
– The number of threads used is the same as the number of
available vCPUs.
OVERSUBSCRIBE
– The number of threads used is the number of
available vCPUs multiplied by 2. If this value is used, the bulk
loader takes up all available resources.
This does not mean, however, that the OVERSUBSCRIBE
setting
results in 100% CPU utilization. Because the load operation is I/O
bound, the highest CPU utilization to expect is in the 60% to 70%
range.
Default value: HIGH
The parallelism
setting can sometimes result in a deadlock between
threads when loading openCypher data. When this happens, Neptune returns
the LOAD_DATA_DEADLOCK
error. You can generally fix the issue by
setting parallelism
to a lower setting and retrying the load command.
parserConfiguration
– An optional object with additional
parser configuration values. Each of the child parameters is also
optional:
namedGraphUri
– The default graph for all RDF formats when
no graph is specified (for non-quads formats and NQUAD entries with
no graph).
The default is
https://aws.amazon.com/neptune/vocab/v01/DefaultNamedGraph
.
baseUri
– The base URI for RDF/XML and Turtle formats.
The default is https://aws.amazon.com/neptune/default
.
allowEmptyStrings
– Gremlin users need to be able to pass
empty string values("") as node and edge properties when loading CSV
data. If allowEmptyStrings
is set to false
(the default), such
empty strings are treated as nulls and are not loaded.
If allowEmptyStrings
is set to true
, the loader treats empty
strings as valid property values and loads them accordingly.
updateSingleCardinalityProperties
is an optional parameter that
controls how the bulk loader treats a new value for single-cardinality
vertex or edge properties. This is not supported for loading openCypher
data.
Allowed values: "TRUE"
, "FALSE"
.
Default value: "FALSE"
.
By default, or when updateSingleCardinalityProperties
is explicitly
set to "FALSE"
, the loader treats a new value as an error, because it
violates single cardinality.
When updateSingleCardinalityProperties
is set to "TRUE"
, on the
other hand, the bulk loader replaces the existing value with the new
one. If multiple edge or single-cardinality vertex property values are
provided in the source file(s) being loaded, the final value at the end
of the bulk load could be any one of those new values. The loader only
guarantees that the existing value has been replaced by one of the new
ones.
This is an optional flag parameter that indicates whether the load request can be queued up or not.
You don't have to wait for one load job to complete before issuing the
next one, because Neptune can queue up as many as 64 jobs at a time,
provided that their queueRequest
parameters are all set to "TRUE"
.
The queue order of the jobs will be first-in-first-out (FIFO).
If the queueRequest
parameter is omitted or set to "FALSE"
, the load
request will fail if another load job is already running.
Allowed values: "TRUE"
, "FALSE"
.
Default value: "FALSE"
.
This is an optional parameter that can make a queued load request contingent on the successful completion of one or more previous jobs in the queue.
Neptune can queue up as many as 64 load requests at a time, if their
queueRequest
parameters are set to "TRUE"
. The dependencies
parameter lets you make execution of such a queued request dependent on
the successful completion of one or more specified previous requests in
the queue.
For example, if load Job-A
and Job-B
are independent of each other,
but load Job-C
needs Job-A
and Job-B
to be finished before it
begins, proceed as follows:
Submit load-job-A
and load-job-B
one after another in any order,
and save their load-ids.
Submit load-job-C
with the load-ids of the two jobs in its
dependencies
field:
Because of the dependencies
parameter, the bulk loader will not start
Job-C
until Job-A
and Job-B
have completed successfully. If either
one of them fails, Job-C will not be executed, and its status will be
set to LOAD_FAILED_BECAUSE_DEPENDENCY_NOT_SATISFIED
.
You can set up multiple levels of dependency in this way, so that the failure of one job will cause all requests that are directly or indirectly dependent on it to be cancelled.
This parameter is required only when loading openCypher data that
contains relationship IDs. It must be included and set to True
when
openCypher relationship IDs are explicitly provided in the load data
(recommended).
When userProvidedEdgeIds
is absent or set to True
, an :ID
column
must be present in every relationship file in the load.
When userProvidedEdgeIds
is present and set to False
, relationship
files in the load must not contain an :ID
column. Instead, the
Neptune loader automatically generates an ID for each relationship.
It's useful to provide relationship IDs explicitly so that the loader can resume loading after error in the CSV data have been fixed, without having to reload any relationships that have already been loaded. If relationship IDs have not been explicitly assigned, the loader cannot resume a failed load if any relationship file has had to be corrected, and must instead reload all the relationships.
