◆ showTable() [1/2]

ShowTableResponse kinetica.Kinetica.showTable (ShowTableRequestrequest_)
 inline

Retrieves detailed information about a table, view, or schema, specified in table_name.

If the supplied table_name is a schema the call can return information about either the schema itself or the tables and views it contains. If table_name is empty, information about all schemas will be returned.

If the option GET_SIZES is set to TRUE, then the number of records in each table is returned (in sizes and full_sizes), along with the total number of objects across all requested tables (in total_size and total_full_size).

For a schema, setting the SHOW_CHILDREN option to FALSE returns only information about the schema itself; setting SHOW_CHILDREN to TRUE returns a list of tables and views contained in the schema, along with their corresponding detail.

To retrieve a list of every table, view, and schema in the database, set table_name to ’*’ and SHOW_CHILDREN to TRUE. When doing this, the returned total_size and total_full_size will not include the sizes of non-base tables (e.g., filters, views, joins, etc.).

Parameters
request_Request object containing the parameters for the operation.
Returns
Response object containing the result of the operation.

◆ showTable() [2/2]

ShowTableResponse kinetica.Kinetica.showTable (stringtable_name,
IDictionary< string, string >options = null )
 inline

Retrieves detailed information about a table, view, or schema, specified in table_name .

If the supplied table_name is a schema the call can return information about either the schema itself or the tables and views it contains. If table_name is empty, information about all schemas will be returned.

If the option GET_SIZES is set to TRUE, then the number of records in each table is returned (in sizes and full_sizes), along with the total number of objects across all requested tables (in total_size and total_full_size).

For a schema, setting the SHOW_CHILDREN option to FALSE returns only information about the schema itself; setting SHOW_CHILDREN to TRUE returns a list of tables and views contained in the schema, along with their corresponding detail.

To retrieve a list of every table, view, and schema in the database, set table_name to ’*’ and SHOW_CHILDREN to TRUE. When doing this, the returned total_size and total_full_size will not include the sizes of non-base tables (e.g., filters, views, joins, etc.).

Parameters
table_nameName of the table for which to retrieve the information, in [schema_name.]table_name format, using standard name resolution rules. If blank, then returns information about all tables and views.
optionsOptional parameters.
  • DEPENDENCIES: Include view dependencies in the output. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS: If TRUE then the table sizes will wait for read lock before returning. Supported values:The default value is TRUE.
  • GET_ACCESS_DATA: If TRUE then data about the last read, write, alter and create will be returned. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • GET_CACHED_SIZES: If TRUE then the number of records in each table, along with a cumulative count, will be returned; blank, otherwise. This version will return the sizes cached at rank 0, which may be stale if there is a multihead insert occurring. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • GET_SIZES: If TRUE then the number of records in each table, along with a cumulative count, will be returned; blank, otherwise. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • REFERENCING_MATERIALIZED_VIEWS: Include materialized views using this table as a source in the output. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • SKIP_ADDITIONAL_INFO: If TRUE then the response will not populate the additional_info field. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • NO_ERROR_IF_NOT_EXISTS: If FALSE will return an error if the provided table_name does not exist. If TRUE then it will return an empty result. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • SKIP_TEMP_SCHEMAS: If TRUE then the table list will not include tables from SYS_TEMP and other system temporary schemas. This is the default behavior for non-admin users. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
  • SHOW_CHILDREN: If table_name is a schema, then TRUE will return information about the tables and views in the schema, and FALSE will return information about the schema itself. If table_name is a table or view, SHOW_CHILDREN must be FALSE. If table_name is empty, then SHOW_CHILDREN must be TRUE. Supported values:The default value is TRUE.
  • GET_COLUMN_INFO: If TRUE then column info (memory usage, etc) will be returned. Supported values:The default value is FALSE.
The default value is an empty Dictionary.
Returns
Response object containing the result of the operation.

◆ ShowTableAsync() [1/2]

async System.Threading.Tasks.Task< ShowTableResponse > kinetica.Kinetica.ShowTableAsync (ShowTableRequestrequest_,

Parameters
request_Request object containing the parameters for the operation.
cancellationTokenCancellation token to cancel the operation.
Returns
Task that returns the response object containing the result of the operation.
