Read Rows Query
class google.cloud.bigtable.data.read_rows_query.ReadRowsQuery(row_keys: Optional[Union[list[str | bytes], str, bytes]] = None, row_ranges: Optional[Union[list[google.cloud.bigtable.data.read_rows_query.RowRange], google.cloud.bigtable.data.read_rows_query.RowRange]] = None, limit: Optional[int] = None, row_filter: Optional[google.cloud.bigtable.data.row_filters.RowFilter] = None)
Bases: object
Class to encapsulate details of a read row request
- Parameters - row_keys – row keys to include in the query a query can contain multiple keys, but ranges should be preferred 
- row_ranges – ranges of rows to include in the query 
- limit – the maximum number of rows to return. None or 0 means no limit default: None (no limit) 
- row_filter – a RowFilter to apply to the query 
 
_eq_(other)
RowRanges are equal if they have the same row keys, row ranges, filter and limit, or if they both represent a full scan with the same filter and limit
- Parameters - other – the object to compare to 
- Returns - True if the objects are equal, False otherwise 
- Return type 
add_key(row_key: str | bytes)
Add a row key to this query
A query can contain multiple keys, but ranges should be preferred
- Parameters - row_key – a key to add to this query 
- Raises - ValueError – if an input is not a string or bytes 
add_range(row_range: google.cloud.bigtable.data.read_rows_query.RowRange)
Add a range of row keys to this query.
- Parameters - row_range – a range of row keys to add to this query 
property filter(: google.cloud.bigtable.data.row_filters.RowFilter | [None](https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#None )
Return the RowFilter applied to this query
- Returns - the RowFilter applied to this query 
- Return type - RowFilter | None 
property limit(: int | [None](https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#None )
Return the maximum number of rows to return by this query
None or 0 means no limit
- Returns - the maximum number of rows to return by this query 
- Return type - int | None 
property row_keys(: list[bytes )
Return the row keys in this query
property row_ranges(: list[google.cloud.bigtable.data.read_rows_query.RowRange )
Return the row ranges in this query
- Returns - the row ranges in this query 
- Return type - list[RowRange] 
shard(shard_keys: RowKeySamples)
Split this query into multiple queries that can be evenly distributed across nodes and run in parallel
- Parameters - shard_keys – a list of row keys that define the boundaries of segments. 
- Returns - a ShardedQuery that can be used in sharded_read_rows calls 
- Return type - ShardedQuery 
- Raises - AttributeError – if the query contains a limit 
class google.cloud.bigtable.data.read_rows_query.RowRange(start_key: Optional[Union[str, bytes]] = None, end_key: Optional[Union[str, bytes]] = None, start_is_inclusive: Optional[bool] = None, end_is_inclusive: Optional[bool] = None)
Bases: object
Represents a range of keys in a ReadRowsQuery
- Parameters - start_key – The start key of the range. If empty, the range is unbounded on the left. 
- end_key – The end key of the range. If empty, the range is unbounded on the right. 
- start_is_inclusive – Whether the start key is inclusive. If None, the start key is inclusive. 
- end_is_inclusive – Whether the end key is inclusive. If None, the end key is not inclusive. 
 
- Raises - ValueError – if start_key is greater than end_key, or start_is_inclusive 
- ValueError – if end_is_inclusive is set when the corresponding key is None 
- ValueError – if start_key or end_key is not a string or bytes. 
 
_bool_()
Empty RowRanges (representing a full table scan) are falsy, because they can be substituted with None. Non-empty RowRanges are truthy.
- Returns - True if the RowRange is not empty, False otherwise 
- Return type 
_str_()
Represent range as a string, e.g. “[b’a’, b’z)”
Unbounded start or end keys are represented as “-inf” or “+inf”
- Returns - The string representation of the range 
- Return type 
property end_is_inclusive(: [bool](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool )
Indicates if the range is inclusive of the end key.
If the range is unbounded on the right, this will return True.
- Returns - Whether the range is inclusive of the end key. 
- Return type 
property end_key(: bytes | [None](https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#None )
Returns the end key of the range. If None, the range is unbounded on the right.
- Returns - The end key of the range, or None if the range is unbounded on the right. 
- Return type - bytes | None 
property start_is_inclusive(: [bool](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#bool )
Indicates if the range is inclusive of the start key.
If the range is unbounded on the left, this will return True.
- Returns - Whether the range is inclusive of the start key. 
- Return type 
property start_key(: bytes | [None](https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#None )
Returns the start key of the range. If None, the range is unbounded on the left.
