RAthena: a DBI interface into Athena using Boto3 SDK

Description

RAthena provides a seamless DBI interface into Athena using the python package Boto3.

Goal of Package

The goal of the RAthena package is to provide a DBI-compliant interface to Amazon’s Athena using Boto3 software development kit (SDK). This allows for an efficient, easy setup connection to Athena using the Boto3 SDK as a driver.

Installation

Before starting with RAthena, Python is require to be installed on the machine you are intending to run RAthena.

AWS Command Line Interface

As RAthena is using Boto3 as it's backend, AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) can be used to remove user credentials when interacting with Athena.

This allows AWS profile names to be set up so that RAthena can connect to different accounts from the same machine, without needing hard code any credentials.

Note

Boto3 version 1.14.0 + is required

Description

Convenience functions for reading/writing DBMS tables

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'AthenaConnection,character,data.frame'
dbWriteTable(
  conn,
  name,
  value,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  append = FALSE,
  row.names = NA,
  field.types = NULL,
  partition = NULL,
  s3.location = NULL,
  file.type = c("tsv", "csv", "parquet", "json"),
  compress = FALSE,
  max.batch = Inf,
  ...
)

## S4 method for signature 'AthenaConnection,Id,data.frame'
dbWriteTable(
  conn,
  name,
  value,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  append = FALSE,
  row.names = NA,
  field.types = NULL,
  partition = NULL,
  s3.location = NULL,
  file.type = c("tsv", "csv", "parquet", "json"),
  compress = FALSE,
  max.batch = Inf,
  ...
)

## S4 method for signature 'AthenaConnection,SQL,data.frame'
dbWriteTable(
  conn,
  name,
  value,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  append = FALSE,
  row.names = NA,
  field.types = NULL,
  partition = NULL,
  s3.location = NULL,
  file.type = c("tsv", "csv", "parquet", "json"),
  compress = FALSE,
  max.batch = Inf,
  ...
)

Arguments

conn

An AthenaConnection object, produced by DBI::dbConnect()

name

A character string specifying a table name. Names will be automatically quoted so you can use any sequence of characters, not just any valid bare table name.

value

A data.frame to write to the database.

overwrite

Allows overwriting the destination table. Cannot be TRUE if append is also TRUE.

append

Allow appending to the destination table. Cannot be TRUE if overwrite is also TRUE. Existing Athena DDL file type will be retained and used when uploading data to AWS Athena. If parameter file.type doesn't match AWS Athena DDL file type a warning message will be created notifying user and RAthena will use the file type for the Athena DDL. When appending to an Athena DDL that has been created outside of RAthena. RAthena can support the following SerDes and Data Formats.

csv/tsv: LazySimpleSerDe
parquet: Parquet SerDe
json: JSON SerDe Libraries

row.names

Either TRUE, FALSE, NA or a string.

If TRUE, always translate row names to a column called "row_names". If FALSE, never translate row names. If NA, translate rownames only if they're a character vector.

A string is equivalent to TRUE, but allows you to override the default name.

For backward compatibility, NULL is equivalent to FALSE.

field.types

Additional field types used to override derived types.

partition

Partition Athena table (needs to be a named list or vector) for example: c(var1 = "2019-20-13")

s3.location

s3 bucket to store Athena table, must be set as a s3 uri for example ("s3://mybucket/data/"). By default, the s3.location is set to s3 staging directory from AthenaConnection object. Note: When creating a table for the first time s3.location will be formatted from "s3://mybucket/data/" to the following syntax "s3://{mybucket/data}/{schema}/{table}/{parition}/" this is to support tables with the same name but existing in different schemas. If schema isn't specified in name parameter then the schema from dbConnect is used instead.

file.type

What file type to store data.frame on s3, RAthena currently supports c("tsv", "csv", "parquet", "json"). Default delimited file type is "tsv", in previous versions of RAthena (=< 1.6.0) file type "csv" was used as default. The reason for the change is that columns containing Array/JSON format cannot be written to Athena due to the separating value ",". This would cause issues with AWS Athena. Note: "parquet" format is supported by the arrow package and it will need to be installed to utilise the "parquet" format. "json" format is supported by jsonlite package and it will need to be installed to utilise the "json" format.

compress

FALSE | TRUE To determine if to compress file.type. If file type is c("csv", "tsv") then "gzip" compression is used, for file type "parquet" "snappy" compression is used. Currently RAthena doesn't support compression for "json" file type.

max.batch

Split the data frame by max number of rows i.e. 100,000 so that multiple files can be uploaded into AWS S3. By default when compression is set to TRUE and file.type is "csv" or "tsv" max.batch will split data.frame into 20 batches. This is to help the performance of AWS Athena when working with files compressed in "gzip" format. max.batch will not split the data.frame when loading file in parquet format. For more information please go to link

...

Other arguments used by individual methods.

Value

dbWriteTable() returns TRUE, invisibly. If the table exists, and both append and overwrite arguments are unset, or append = TRUE and the data frame with the new data has different column names, an error is raised; the remote table remains unchanged.

Examples

## Not run: 
# Note:
# - Require AWS Account to run below example.
# - Different connection methods can be used please see `RAthena::dbConnect` documnentation

library(DBI)

# Demo connection to Athena using profile name

# Write data.frame to Athena table
dbWriteTable(con, "mtcars", mtcars,
             partition=c("TIMESTAMP" = format(Sys.Date(), "%Y%m%d")),
             s3.location = "s3://mybucket/data/")

# Read entire table from Athena
dbReadTable(con, "mtcars")

# List all tables in Athena after uploading new table to Athena
dbListTables(con)

# Checking if uploaded table exists in Athena
dbExistsTable(con, "mtcars")

# using default s3.location
dbWriteTable(con, "iris", iris)

# Read entire table from Athena
dbReadTable(con, "iris")

# List all tables in Athena after uploading new table to Athena
dbListTables(con)

# Checking if uploaded table exists in Athena

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the role to assume (such as arn:aws:sts::123456789012:assumed-role/role_name/role_session_name)

role_session_name

An identifier for the assumed role session. By default RAthena creates a session name sprintf("RAthena-session-%s", as.integer(Sys.time()))

duration_seconds

s3_staging_dir

The location in Amazon S3 where your query results are stored, such as s3://path/to/query/bucket/

region_name

Default region when creating new connections. Please refer to link for AWS region codes (region code example: Region = EU (Ireland) region_name = "eu-west-1")

botocore_session

Use this Botocore session instead of creating a new default one.

bigint

The R type that 64-bit integer types should be mapped to, default is bit64::integer64, which allows the full range of 64 bit integers.

binary

The R type that "binary/varbinary" types should be mapped to, default is raw. If the mapping fails R will resort to ⁠character`` type. To ignore data type conversion set to ⁠character'.

json

Attempt to converts AWS Athena data types arrays, json using jsonlite:parse_json. If the mapping fails R will resort to character type. Custom Json parsers can be provide by using a function with data frame parameter. To ignore data type conversion set to "character".

timezone

Sets the timezone for the connection. The default is UTC. If NULL then no timezone is set, which defaults to the server's time zone. ⁠AWS Athena⁠ accepted time zones: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/athena/latest/ug/athena-supported-time-zones.html.

keyboard_interrupt

Stops AWS Athena process when R gets a keyboard interrupt, currently defaults to TRUE

rstudio_conn_tab

Optional to get AWS Athena Schema from AWS Glue Catalogue and display it in RStudio's Connections Tab. Default set to TRUE. For large ⁠AWS Glue Catalogue⁠ it is recommended to set rstudio_conn_tab=FALSE to ensure a fast connection.

endpoint_override

(character/list) The complete URL to use for the constructed client. Normally, botocore will automatically construct the appropriate URL to use when communicating with a service. You can specify a complete URL (including the "http/https" scheme) to override this behaviour. If endpoint_override is a character then AWS Athena endpoint is overridden. To override AWS S3 or AWS Glue endpoints a named list needs to be provided. The list can only have the following names ⁠c('athena', 's3', glue')⁠ for example list(glue = "https://glue.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com")

...

Passes parameters to boto3.session.Session and client.

boto3.session.Session
- botocore_session (botocore.session.Session): Use this Botocore session instead of creating a new default one.
boto3.client
- config (botocore.client.Config) – Advanced client configuration options. If region_name is specified in the client config, its value will take precedence over environment variables and configuration values, but not over a region_name value passed explicitly to the method. See botocore config documentation for more details.
- api_version (string) – The API version to use. By default, botocore will use the latest API version when creating a client. You only need to specify this parameter if you want to use a previous API version of the client.
- use_ssl (boolean) – Whether or not to use SSL. By default, SSL is used. Note that not all services support non-ssl connections.
- verify (boolean/string) – Whether or not to verify SSL certificates. By default SSL certificates are verified. You can provide the following values:
  - False - do not validate SSL certificates. SSL will still be used (unless use_ssl is False), but SSL certificates will not be verified.
  - path/to/cert/bundle.pem - A filename of the CA cert bundle to uses. You can specify this argument if you want to use a different CA cert bundle than the one used by botocore.

Value

dbConnect() returns a s4 class. This object is used to communicate with AWS Athena.

S3 implementation of `db_compute` for Athena

Description

This is a backend function for dplyr's compute function. Users won't be required to access and run this function.

Usage

db_compute.AthenaConnection(
  con,
  table,
  sql,
  ...,
  overwrite = FALSE,
  temporary = FALSE,
  unique_indexes = list(),
  indexes = list(),
  analyze = TRUE,
  in_transaction = FALSE,
  partition = NULL,
  s3_location = NULL,
  file_type = c("csv", "tsv", "parquet"),
  compress = FALSE
)

sql_query_save.AthenaConnection(
  con,
  sql,
  name,
  temporary = TRUE,
  ...,
  partition = NULL,
  s3_location = NULL,
  file_type = NULL,
  compress = FALSE
)

Arguments

con

A dbConnect object, as returned by dbConnect()

table

Table name, if left default RAthena will use the default from dplyr's compute function.

sql

SQL code to be sent to the data

...

passes RAthena table creation parameters: file_type,s3_location,partition.

overwrite

Allows overwriting the destination table. Cannot be TRUE if append is also TRUE.

temporary

if TRUE, will create a temporary table that is local to this connection and will be automatically deleted when the connection expires

unique_indexes

a list of character vectors. Each element of the list will create a new unique index over the specified column(s). Duplicate rows will result in failure.

indexes

a list of character vectors. Each element of the list will create a new index.

analyze

if TRUE (the default), will automatically ANALYZE the new table so that the query optimiser has useful information.

in_transaction

Should the table creation be wrapped in a transaction? This typically makes things faster, but you may want to suppress if the database doesn't support transactions, or you're wrapping in a transaction higher up (and your database doesn't support nested transactions.)

partition

Partition Athena table (needs to be a named list or vector) for example: c(var1 = "2019-20-13")

s3_location

s3 bucket to store Athena table, must be set as a s3 uri for example ("s3://mybucket/data/")

file_type

What file type to store data.frame on s3, RAthena currently supports c("tsv", "csv", "parquet"). Default delimited file type is "tsv", in previous versions of RAthena (=< 1.4.0) file type "csv" was used as default. The reason for the change is that columns containing Array/JSON format cannot be written to Athena due to the separating value ",". This would cause issues with AWS Athena. Note: "parquet" format is supported by the arrow package and it will need to be installed to utilise the "parquet" format.

compress

FALSE | TRUE To determine if to compress file.type. If file type is c("csv", "tsv") then "gzip" compression is used, for file type "parquet" "snappy" compression is used.

file_type: What file type to store data.frame on s3, RAthena currently supports c("NULL","csv", "parquet", "json"). "NULL" will let Athena set the file_type for you.
s3_location: s3 bucket to store Athena table, must be set as a s3 uri for example ("s3://mybucket/data/")
partition: Partition Athena table, requires to be a partitioned variable from previous table.

name

Table name, if left default RAthena will use the default from dplyr's compute function.

Value

db_compute returns table name

Examples

## Not run: 
# Note:
# - Require AWS Account to run below example.
# - Different connection methods can be used please see `RAthena::dbConnect` documentation
