snowpipe-cli 0.0.2rc3

A CLI utility for Snowflake Snowpipe REST APIs

Snowpipe CLI

Snowpipe CLI provides access to the Snowpipe REST API via the CLI. The script uses the snowflake-ingest python package to call the REST endpoints.

In addition to calling the Snowpipe REST endpoints, you can use Snowpipe CLI to PUT local files in the stage used by the pipe and then ingest. A single invocation of the ingest command handles any combination of already staged files and local files that need to be staged.

There is also a JWT generator that you can use to simply generate a JWT for adhoc use.

Installation

You can install the latest version with pip

pip install snowpipe-cli

Note: If you are installing into a virtual environment, you may need to deactivate and activate again in order for the snowpipe command to work correctly from your shell.

Requirements

Snowpipe CLI requires Python 3.8+.

Configuration

Create a config file with the Snowflake credentials and account information. The config file must be YAML like below:

url: phdata.snowflakecomputing.com
account: PHDATA
user: USER
key_fp: SHA256:something_from_snowflake_user
key_file: /path/to/user/private/key.pem
key_password: optional_password

See also example config.

The account value must not include the region and cloud if present in the Snowflake URL. The url is the URL of the Snowflake instance minus the scheme. For example, if your URL is https://tacos.us-east-2.azure.snowflakecomputing.com, then the account will be tacos and the url will be tacos.us-east-2.azure.snowflakecomputing.com.

To generate a private key, see Key Pair Authentication & Key Pair Rotation. When verifying the fingerprint, record the value into the key_fp YAML key.

Usage

The commands below are examples of calling the snowpipe script from your shell after it has been installed with pip. If you have cloned the repository, you can also invoke the script from its parent directory with ./snowpipe.py, or you can run from the src directory with python -m snowpipe_cli.

Show the script help, including the subcommands:

snowpipe -h

Show subcommand help:

snowpipe <subcommand> -h

Run a subcommand:

snowpipe <subcommand> <config_file> <other_args>...

Enable debug logging:

snowpipe -d <subcommand> <config_file>
