Data Cloud Custom Code SDK

Data Cloud Custom Code SDK

This package provides a development kit for creating custom data transformations in Data Cloud. It allows you to write your own data processing logic in Python while leveraging Data Cloud's infrastructure for data access and running data transformations, mapping execution into Data Cloud data structures like Data Model Objects and Data Lake Objects.

More specifically, this codebase gives you ability to test code locally before pushing to Data Cloud's remote execution engine, greatly reducing how long it takes to develop.

Use of this project with Salesforce is subject to the TERMS OF USE

Installation

The SDK can be downloaded directly from PyPI with pip:

pip install salesforce-data-customcode

You can verify it was properly installed via CLI:

datacustomcode version

Development Setup

We offer two built-in development interfaces: devcontainers and Jupyter, but you can set up any tool you would like manually.

To get started, use the CLI to initialize a new development environment:

datacustomcode init [DIRECTORY TO DUMP NEW REPO]

This will yield all necessary files to get started:

.
├── Dockerfile
├── README.md
├── requirements.txt
├── requirements-dev.txt
├── payload
│   ├── config.json
│   ├── entrypoint.py
├── jupyterlab.sh
└── requirements.txt

• Dockerfile (Do not update) – Development container emulating the remote execution environment.
• requirements-dev.txt (Do not update) – These are the dependencies for the development environment.
• jupyterlab.sh (Do not update) – Helper script for setting up Jupyter.
• requirements.txt – Here you define the requirements that you will need remotely
• payload – This folder will be compressed and deployed to the remote execution environment.
  • config.json – This config defines permissions on the back and can be generated programmatically with scan CLI method.
  • entrypoint.py – The script that defines the data transformation logic.

API

You entry point script will define logic using the Client object which wraps data access layers.

You should only need the following methods:

• read_dlo(name) – Read from a Data Lake Object by name
• read_dmo(name) – Read from a Data Model Object by name
• write_to_dlo(name, spark_dataframe, write_mode) – Write to a Data Model Object by name with a Spark dataframe
• write_to_dmo(name, spark_dataframe, write_mode) – Write to a Data Lake Object by name with a Spark dataframe

For example:

from datacustomcode import Client

client = Client()

sdf = client.read_dlo('my_DLO')
# some transformations
# ...
client.write_to_dlo('output_DLO')

[!WARNING] Currently we only support reading from DMOs and writing to DMOs or reading from DLOs and writing to DLOs, but they cannot mix.
