Unofficial Python SDK for Athena Federation

Project description

(Unofficial) Python SDK for Athena Federation

This is an unofficial Python SDK for Athena Federation.

Overview

The Python SDK makes it easy to create new Amazon Athena Data Source Connectors using Python. It is under active development so the API may change from version to version.

You can see an example implementation that queries Google Sheets using Athena.

gsheets_example

Current Limitations

  • Partitions are not supported, so Athena will not parallelize the query using partitions.
  • Splits are not supported (but coming soon), so Athena will only make 1 request to query your data.
  • Spill to S3 is not supported, so responses must be under 6MB.

Local Development

  • Ensure you've got the build module install and SDK dependencies.
pip install build
pip install -r requirements.txt
  • Now make a wheel.
python -m build

This will create a file in dist/: dist/unoffical_athena_federation_sdk-0.0.0-py3-none-any.whl

Copy that file to your example repo and you can include it in your requirements.txt like so:

unoffical-athena-federation-sdk @ file:///unoffical_athena_federation_sdk-0.0.0-py3-none-any.whl

Validating your connector

You can test your Lambda function locally using Lambda Docker images.

First, build our Docker image and run it.

docker build -t local/athena-python-example .
docker run --rm -p 9000:8080 local/athena-python-example

Then, we can execute a sample PingRequest.

curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" -d '{"@type": "PingRequest", "identity": {"id": "UNKNOWN", "principal": "UNKNOWN", "account": "123456789012", "arn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:root", "tags": {}, "groups": []}, "catalogName": "athena_python_sdk", "queryId": "1681559a-548b-4771-874c-2aa2ea7c39ab"}'
{"@type": "PingResponse", "catalogName": "athena_python_sdk", "queryId": "1681559a-548b-4771-874c-2aa2ea7c39ab", "sourceType": "athena_python_sdk", "capabilities": 23}

We can also list schemas.

curl -XPOST "http://localhost:9000/2015-03-31/functions/function/invocations" -d '{"@type": "ListSchemasRequest", "identity": {"id": "UNKNOWN", "principal": "UNKNOWN", "account": "123456789012", "arn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:root", "tags": {}, "groups": []}, "catalogName": "athena_python_sdk", "queryId": "1681559a-548b-4771-874c-2aa2ea7c39ab"}'
{"@type": "ListSchemasResponse", "catalogName": "athena_python_sdk", "schemas": ["sampledb"], "requestType": "LIST_SCHEMAS"}

Creating your Lambda function

💁 Please note these are manual instructions until a serverless application can be built.

  1. First, let's define some variables we need throughout.
export SPILL_BUCKET=<BUCKET_NAME>
export AWS_ACCOUNT_ID=123456789012
export AWS_REGION=us-east-1
export IMAGE_TAG=v0.0.1
  1. Create an S3 bucket that this Lambda function will use for Spill data
aws s3 mb ${SPILL_BUCKET}
  1. Create an ECR repository for this image
aws ecr create-repository --repository-name athena_example --image-scanning-configuration scanOnPush=true
  1. Push tag the image with the repo name and push it up
docker tag local/athena-python-example ${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com/athena_example:${IMAGE_TAG}
aws ecr get-login-password | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin ${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com
docker push ${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com/athena_example:${IMAGE_TAG}
  1. Create an IAM role that will allow your Lambda function to execute

Note the Arn of the role that's returned

aws iam create-role \
    --role-name athena-example-execution-role \
    --assume-role-policy-document '{"Version": "2012-10-17","Statement": [{ "Effect": "Allow", "Principal": {"Service": "lambda.amazonaws.com"}, "Action": "sts:AssumeRole"}]}'
aws iam attach-role-policy \
    --role-name athena-example-execution-role \
    --policy-arn arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/service-role/AWSLambdaBasicExecutionRole
  1. Grant the IAM role access to your S3 bucket
aws iam create-policy --policy-name athena-example-s3-access --policy-document '{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": ["s3:ListBucket"],
      "Resource": ["arn:aws:s3:::'${SPILL_BUCKET}'"]
    },
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
        "s3:PutObject",
        "s3:GetObject",
        "s3:DeleteObject"
      ],
      "Resource": ["arn:aws:s3:::'${SPILL_BUCKET}'/*"]
    }
  ]
}'
aws iam attach-role-policy \
    --role-name athena-example-execution-role \
    --policy-arn arn:aws:iam::${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}:policy/athena-example-s3-access
  1. Now create your function pointing to the created repository image
aws lambda create-function \
    --function-name athena-python-example \
    --role arn:aws:iam::${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}:role/athena-example-execution-role \
    --code ImageUri=${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com/athena_example:${IMAGE_TAG} \
    --environment 'Variables={TARGET_BUCKET=<BUCKET_NAME>}' \
    --description "Example Python implementation for Athena Federated Queries" \
    --timeout 60 \
    --package-type Image

Connect with Athena!

  1. Choose "Data sources" on the top navigation bar in the Athena console and then click "Connect data source"

  1. Choose the Lambda function you just created and click Connect!

Updating the Lambda function

If you update the Lambda function, re-run the build and push steps (updating the IMAGE_TAG variable) and then update the Lambda function:

aws lambda update-function-code \
    --function-name athena-python-example \
    --image-uri ${AWS_ACCOUNT_ID}.dkr.ecr.${AWS_REGION}.amazonaws.com/athena_example:${IMAGE_TAG}
