Use Tablestore SDK for Go to create a tunnel - Tablestore

You can call the CreateTunnel operation to create one or more tunnels for a table. When you create a tunnel, you must specify the table name, tunnel name, and tunnel type.

Prerequisites

A TunnelClient instance is initialized.
A data table is created. For more information, see Create a data table.

Parameters

Request parameters

Parameter	Description
TableName	The name of the data table for which you want to create a tunnel.
TunnelName	The name of the tunnel.
Type	The type of the tunnel. Valid values: BaseData, Stream, and BaseAndStream. The BaseData type specifies that the tunnel is used to consume full data of the data table. The Stream type specifies that the tunnel is used to consume incremental data of the data table. The BaseAndStream type specifies that the tunnel is used to consume differential data of the data table. If you set this parameter to Stream or BaseAndStream, the system considers the data that is written to the data table after the tunnel is created incremental. If you want to consume incremental data generated after a specific point of time, you must configure the startTime parameter for the incremental data. Valid values of the startTime parameter: `[Current system time - Stream validity period + 5 minutes, Current system time]`. Unit: nanoseconds. Note Stream validity period is the validity period of incremental logs in milliseconds. The maximum validity period of incremental logs is seven days. You can specify the Stream validity period when you enable Stream for the data table. You cannot modify the Stream validity period after you specify it. You can also configure the endTime parameter for the incremental data that you want to consume. The value of the endTime parameter must be greater than the value of the startTime parameter.

Response parameters

Parameter	Description
TunnelId	The ID of the tunnel.
ResponseInfo	Other fields returned in the response, including the RequestId field in the request. RequestId uniquely identifies the request.

Examples

The following sample code provides an example on how to create a tunnel of the BaseAndStream type:

req := &tunnel.CreateTunnelRequest{
   TableName:  "<TABLE_NAME>",
   TunnelName: "<TUNNEL_NAME>",
   Type:       tunnel.TunnelTypeBaseStream, // Create a tunnel of the BaseAndStream type. 
}
resp, err := tunnelClient.CreateTunnel(req)
if err != nil {
   log.Fatal("create tunnel failed ", err)
}
log.Println("tunnel id is", resp.TunnelId)

FAQ

What do I do if the "OTSTrimmedDataAccess Requested stream data is already trimmed or does not exist" error message is returned when I use Tunnel Service to consume data?
