CData Python Connector for Cloudant

Build 23.0.8839

CreateSchema

Creates a schema definition of a table in Cloudant. Control column discovery with FlattenObjects, FlattenArrays, TypeDetectionScheme, and RowScanDepth.

CreateSchema

Creates a local schema file (.rsd) from an existing table or view in the data model.

The schema file is created in the directory set in the Location connection property when this procedure is executed. You can edit the file to include or exclude columns, rename columns, or adjust column datatypes.

The connector checks the Location to determine if the names of any .rsd files match a table or view in the data model. If there is a duplicate, the schema file will take precedence over the default instance of this table in the data model. If a schema file is present in Location that does not match an existing table or view, a new table or view entry is added to the data model of the connector.
