finspace_create_kx_changeset: Creates a changeset for a kdb database

Description

Creates a changeset for a kdb database. A changeset allows you to add and delete existing files by using an ordered list of change requests.

See https://www.paws-r-sdk.com/docs/finspace_create_kx_changeset/ for full documentation.

Usage

finspace_create_kx_changeset(
  environmentId,
  databaseName,
  changeRequests,
  clientToken
)

Arguments

environmentId

[required] A unique identifier of the kdb environment.

databaseName

[required] The name of the kdb database.

changeRequests

[required] A list of change request objects that are run in order. A change request object consists of changeType , s3Path, and dbPath. A changeType can have the following values:

  • PUT – Adds or updates files in a database.

  • DELETE – Deletes files in a database.

All the change requests require a mandatory dbPath attribute that defines the path within the database directory. All database paths must start with a leading / and end with a trailing /. The s3Path attribute defines the s3 source file path and is required for a PUT change type. The s3path must end with a trailing / if it is a directory and must end without a trailing / if it is a file.

Here are few examples of how you can use the change request object:

  1. This request adds a single sym file at database root location.

    { "changeType": "PUT", "s3Path":"s3://bucket/db/sym", "dbPath":"/"}

  2. This request adds files in the given s3Path under the 2020.01.02 partition of the database.

    { "changeType": "PUT", "s3Path":"s3://bucket/db/2020.01.02/", "dbPath":"/2020.01.02/"}

  3. This request adds files in the given s3Path under the taq table partition of the database.

    [ { "changeType": "PUT", "s3Path":"s3://bucket/db/2020.01.02/taq/", "dbPath":"/2020.01.02/taq/"}]

  4. This request deletes the 2020.01.02 partition of the database.

    [{ "changeType": "DELETE", "dbPath": "/2020.01.02/"} ]

  5. The DELETE request allows you to delete the existing files under the 2020.01.02 partition of the database, and the PUT request adds a new taq table under it.

    [ {"changeType": "DELETE", "dbPath":"/2020.01.02/"}, {"changeType": "PUT", "s3Path":"s3://bucket/db/2020.01.02/taq/", "dbPath":"/2020.01.02/taq/"}]

clientToken

[required] A token that ensures idempotency. This token expires in 10 minutes.
