Redshift output plugin for Embulk

Redshift output plugin for Embulk loads records to Redshift.

Overview

  • Plugin type: output
  • Load all or nothing: depends on the mode. see below.
  • Resume supported: depends on the mode. see below.

Configuration

  • host: database host name (string, required)

  • port: database port number (integer, default: 5439)

  • user: database login user name (string, required)

  • ssl: use SSL to connect to the database (string, default: "disable". "enable" uses SSL without server-side validation and "verify" checks the certificate. For compatibility reasons, "true" behaves as "enable" and "false" behaves as "disable".)

  • password: database login password (string, default: "")

  • database: destination database name (string, required)

  • schema: destination schema name (string, default: "public")

  • temp_schema: schema name for intermediate tables. by default, intermediate tables will be created in the schema specified by schema. replace mode doesn't support temp_schema. (string, optional)

  • table: destination table name (string, required)

  • create_table_constraint: table constraint added to CREATE TABLE statement, like CREATE TABLE <table_name> (<column1> <type1>, <column2> <type2>, ..., <create_table_constraint>) <create_table_option>.

  • create_table_option: table option added to CREATE TABLE statement, like CREATE TABLE <table_name> (<column1> <type1>, <column2> <type2>, ..., <create_table_constraint>) <create_table_option>.

  • transaction_isolation: transaction isolation level for each connection ("read_uncommitted", "read_committed", "repeatable_read" or "serializable"). if not specified, database default value will be used.

  • access_key_id: deprecated. aws_access_key_id should be used (see "basic" in aws_auth_method).

  • secret_access_key: deprecated. aws_secret_access_key should be used (see "basic" in aws_auth_method).

  • aws_auth_method: name of mechanism to authenticate requests ("basic", "env", "instance", "profile", "properties", "anonymous", "session", "assume_role" or "default". default: "basic")

    • "basic": uses access_key_id and secret_access_key to authenticate.

      • aws_access_key_id: AWS access key ID (string, required)

      • aws_secret_access_key: AWS secret access key (string, required)

    • "env": uses AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID (or AWS_ACCESS_KEY) and AWS_SECRET_KEY (or AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY) environment variables.

    • "instance": uses EC2 instance profile.

    • "profile": uses credentials written in a file. Format of the file is as following, where [...] is a name of profile.

      • aws_profile_file: path to a profiles file. (string, default: given by AWS_CREDENTIAL_PROFILES_FILE environment varialbe, or ~/.aws/credentials).

      • aws_profile_name: name of a profile. (string, default: "default")

      [default]
      aws_access_key_id=YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID
      aws_secret_access_key=YOUR_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
      
      [profile2]
      ...
      
    • "properties": uses aws.accessKeyId and aws.secretKey Java system properties.

    • "anonymous": uses anonymous access. This authentication method can access only public files.

    • "session": uses temporary-generated access_key_id, secret_access_key and session_token.

      • aws_access_key_id: AWS access key ID (string, required)

      • aws_secret_access_key: AWS secret access key (string, required)

      • aws_session_token: session token (string, required)

    • "assume_role": uses temporary security credentials created by AssumeRole.

      • aws_account_id: AWS account ID (string, required)

      • aws_role_name: AWS role name (string, required)

      • aws_external_id: External ID (string, required)

    • "default": uses AWS SDK's default strategy to look up available credentials from runtime environment. This method behaves like the combination of the following methods.

      1. "env"
      2. "properties"
      3. "profile"
      4. "instance"
  • iam_user_name: IAM user name for uploading temporary files to S3. The user should have permissions of s3:GetObject, s3:PutObject, s3:DeleteObject, s3:ListBucket and sts:GetFederationToken. And furthermore, the user should have permission of s3:GetBucketLocation if Redshift region and S3 bucket region are different. (string, default: "", but we strongly recommend that you use IAM user for security reasons. see below.)

  • s3_bucket: S3 bucket name for temporary files

  • s3_key_prefix: S3 key prefix for temporary files (string, default: "")

  • delete_s3_temp_file: whether to delete temporary files uploaded on S3 (boolean, default: true)

  • max_s3_upload_threads_per_task: The maximum number of threads per task which upload and copy data to Redshift via S3 (integer, optional). For example, if this option is 5 and the number of tasks is 8, 40 threads are created. If this option is increased, it may shorten the transfer time, but cause too many connections error. If this option is not specified, create as many new threads as needed, by default.

  • copy_iam_role_name: IAM Role for COPY credential(https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/dg/copy-usage_notes-access-permissions.html), if this is set, IAM Role is used instead of aws access key and aws secret access key(string, optional)

  • copy_aws_account_id: IAM Role's account ID for multi account COPY. If this is set, the ID is used instead of authenticated user's account ID. This is enabled only if copy_iam_role_name is set.(string, optional)

  • options: extra connection properties (hash, default: {})

  • retry_limit: max retry count for database operations (integer, default: 12). When intermediate table to create already created by another process, this plugin will retry with another table name to avoid collision.

  • retry_wait: initial retry wait time in milliseconds (integer, default: 1000 (1 second))

  • max_retry_wait: upper limit of retry wait, which will be doubled at every retry (integer, default: 1800000 (30 minutes))

  • mode: "insert", "insert_direct", "truncate_insert", "replace" or "merge". See below. (string, required)

  • merge_keys: key column names for merging records in merge mode (string array, required in merge mode)

  • batch_size: size of a single batch insert (integer, default: 16777216)

  • default_timezone: If input column type (embulk type) is timestamp, this plugin needs to format the timestamp into a SQL string. This default_timezone option is used to control the timezone. You can overwrite timezone for each columns using column_options option. (string, default: UTC)

  • column_options: advanced: a key-value pairs where key is a column name and value is options for the column.

    • type: type of a column when this plugin creates new tables (e.g. VARCHAR(255), INTEGER NOT NULL UNIQUE). This used when this plugin creates intermediate tables (insert, truncate_insert and merge modes), when it creates the target table (insert_direct and replace modes), and when it creates nonexistent target table automatically. (string, default: depends on input column type. BIGINT if input column type is long, BOOLEAN if boolean, DOUBLE PRECISION if double, CLOB if string, TIMESTAMP if timestamp)
    • value_type: This plugin converts input column type (embulk type) into a database type to build a INSERT statement. This value_type option controls the type of the value in a INSERT statement. (string, default: depends on the sql type of the column. Available values options are: byte, short, int, long, double, float, boolean, string, nstring, date, time, timestamp, decimal, json, null, pass)
    • timestamp_format: If input column type (embulk type) is timestamp and value_type is string or nstring, this plugin needs to format the timestamp value into a string. This timestamp_format option is used to control the format of the timestamp. (string, default: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%6N)
    • timezone: If input column type (embulk type) is timestamp, this plugin needs to format the timestamp value into a SQL string. In this cases, this timezone option is used to control the timezone. (string, value of default_timezone option is used by default)
  • before_load: if set, this SQL will be executed before loading all records. In truncate_insert mode, the SQL will be executed after truncating. replace mode doesn't support this option.

  • after_load: if set, this SQL will be executed after loading all records.

Modes

  • insert:
    • Behavior: This mode writes rows to some intermediate tables first. If all those tasks run correctly, runs INSERT INTO <target_table> SELECT * FROM <intermediate_table_1> UNION ALL SELECT * FROM <intermediate_table_2> UNION ALL ... query. If the target table doesn't exist, it is created automatically.
    • Transactional: Yes. This mode successfully writes all rows, or fails with writing zero rows.
    • Resumable: No.
  • insert_direct:
    • Behavior: This mode inserts rows to the target table directly. If the target table doesn't exist, it is created automatically.
    • Transactional: No. If fails, the target table could have some rows inserted.
    • Resumable: No.
  • truncate_insert:
    • Behavior: Same with insert mode excepting that it truncates the target table (with SQL DELETE FROM, not TRUNCATE) right before the last INSERT ... query.
    • Transactional: Yes.
    • Resumable: No.
  • replace:
    • Behavior: This mode writes rows to an intermediate table first. If all those tasks run correctly, drops the target table and alters the name of the intermediate table into the target table name.
    • Transactional: Yes.
    • Resumable: No.
  • merge:
    • Behavior: This mode writes rows to some intermediate tables first. If all those tasks run correctly, inserts new records from intermediate tables after updating records whose keys exist in intermediate tables. Namely, if merge keys of a record in the intermediate tables already exist in the target table, the target record is updated by the intermediate record, otherwise the intermediate record is inserted. If the target table doesn't exist, it is created automatically. NOTE: Merge does not work correctly if merge keys contain NULLs.
    • Transactional: Yes.
    • Resumable: No.

Build

$ ../gradlew gem

Security

This plugin requires AWS access credentials so that it may write temporary files to S3. There are two security options, Standard and Federated. To use Standard security, give aws_key_id and secret_access_key. To use Federated mode, also give the iam_user_name field. Federated mode really means temporary credentials, so that a man-in-the-middle attack will see AWS credentials that are only valid for 1 calendar day after the transaction.
