Golang SDK for Spice.ai
https://github.com/spiceai/gospice (opens in a new tab)
Install
go get github.com/spiceai/gospice/v6
go get github.com/spiceai/gospice/v6
Connect to spice runtime
Import the package:
import "github.com/spiceai/gospice/v6"
import "github.com/spiceai/gospice/v6"
Create a SpiceClient using default configuration:
spice := NewSpiceClient()
defer spice.Close()
spice := NewSpiceClient()
defer spice.Close()
Or pass custom flight address:
if err := spice.Init(
spice.WithFlightAddress("grpc://my_remote_spice_instance:50051")
); err != nil {
panic(fmt.Errorf("error initializing SpiceClient: %w", err))
}
if err := spice.Init(
spice.WithFlightAddress("grpc://my_remote_spice_instance:50051")
); err != nil {
panic(fmt.Errorf("error initializing SpiceClient: %w", err))
}
Execute a query and get back an Apache Arrow Reader:
reader, err := spice.Query(
context.Background(),
"SELECT trip_distance, total_amount FROM taxi_trips ORDER BY trip_distance DESC LIMIT 10;"
)
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Errorf("error querying: %w", err))
}
defer reader.Release()
reader, err := spice.Query(
context.Background(),
"SELECT trip_distance, total_amount FROM taxi_trips ORDER BY trip_distance DESC LIMIT 10;"
)
if err != nil {
panic(fmt.Errorf("error querying: %w", err))
}
defer reader.Release()
