Connecting to Google BigQuery from DataGrip

The Cloud SQL Connector for Java is a set of libraries that allows you to connect securely to Cloud SQL databases using JDBC drivers. To get started, you'll need to have the Google Cloud SDK and the Cloud SQL Proxy client installed on your machine.

You can find the Cloud SQL Connector for Java libraries on the Release page of the cloud-sql-jdbc-socket-factory repository at 'datagrip google bigquery'. Once you've downloaded the necessary files, you can follow the instructions below to connect to your instance.

Cloud SQL Proxy Client

The Cloud SQL Proxy client is a command-line tool that establishes a proxy connection and provides secure access to your instances. With this tool, you don't need to add your IP to authorized networks or configure SSL. Simply download and install the client from the official Google Cloud website.

Connecting from DataGrip

From within DataGrip, you can connect to your instances using the following options:

1. Cloud SQL Proxy Client: Use the command-line tool to establish a proxy connection and access your instances securely.

2. Big Data Tools Plugin: Install the Big Data Tools plugin for DataGrip, which provides support for connecting to various big data platforms including Google BigQuery.

To install the Big Data Tools plugin, open the Marketplace tab in DataGrip and search for 'Big Data Tools'. Click on the 'Install' button to download and install the plugin. Restart your IDE if prompted.

Once installed, you can enable the plugin by going to Settings > Plugins and selecting 'Big Data Tools'.

Using Google BigQuery from DataGrip

Within the framework of this topic, we'll be using a PostgreSQL instance on the Google Cloud Platform. To connect to your instance, simply select the 'PostgreSQL' connection type when creating a new database connection in DataGrip.

The Big Data Tools plugin provides support for various big data formats including Parquet, ORC, Avro, and CSV files. You can preview these files using the Remote File Systems plugin, which is installed automatically with the Big Data Tools plugin.

Additionally, you can connect to Kafka brokers and Schema Registry, produce and consume data, and access remote storages using other plugins within the Big Data Tools suite.

In this article, we've covered the basics of connecting to Google BigQuery from DataGrip using the Cloud SQL Connector for Java and the Big Data Tools plugin. With these tools at your disposal, you'll be able to securely connect to your instances and work with big data files in no time.
