Get the contents of a file. — read

Returns the contents of a file. If the file does not exist, this call throws an exception with RESOURCE_DOES_NOT_EXIST. If the path is a directory, the read length is negative, or if the offset is negative, this call throws an exception with INVALID_PARAMETER_VALUE. If the read length exceeds 1 MB, this call throws an exception with MAX_READ_SIZE_EXCEEDED.

Usage

read_dbfs(client, path, length = NULL, offset = NULL)

dbfsRead(client, path, length = NULL, offset = NULL)

Arguments

client: Required. Instance of DatabricksClient()
path: Required. The path of the file to read.
length: The number of bytes to read starting from the offset.

Details

If offset + length exceeds the number of bytes in a file, it reads the contents until the end of file.
