Example − Retrieve the details of bookmarked job ‘book-job’ in AWS Glue Data Catalog.
Problem Statement − Use boto3 library in Python to retrieve the details of a bookmarked job in AWS Glue Data Catalog.
Approach/Algorithm to solve this problem
Step 1 − Import boto3 and botocore exceptions to handle exceptions.
Step 2 − bookmarked_job_name is the mandatory parameter. It should have job_name that is already bookmarked, otherwise it will throw EntityNotFoundException.
Step 3 − Create an AWS session using boto3 library. Make sure region_name is mentioned in default profile. If it is not mentioned, then explicitly pass the region_name while creating the session.
Step 4 − Create an AWS client for glue.
Step 5 − Now use get_job_bookmark function and pass bookmarked_job_name as JobName parameter.
Step 6 − It returns the details related to bookmark entry. Note that if job_name is not bookmarked, it will throw an exception as EntityNotFound.
Step 7 − Handle the generic exception if something went wrong while checking the job.
Example
Use the following code to retrieve the details of a bookmarked job in AWS Glue Data Catalog −
import boto3
from botocore.exceptions import ClientError
def retrieves_details_of_bookmarked_job(bookmarked_job_name)
session = boto3.session.Session()
glue_client = session.client('glue')
try:
response = glue_client.get_job_bookmark(JobName=bookmarked_job_name)
return response
except ClientError as e:
raise Exception("boto3 client error in retrieves_details_of_bookmarked_job: " + e.__str__())
except Exception as e:
raise Exception("Unexpected error in retrieves_details_of_bookmarked_job: " + e.__str__())
print(retrieves_details_of_bookmarked_job("book-job"))Output
