"""``PTransforms`` for manipulating files in Apache Beam.

Provides reading ``PTransform``\\s, ``MatchFiles``,
``MatchAll``, that produces a ``PCollection`` of records representing a file
and its metadata; and ``ReadMatches``, which takes in a ``PCollection`` of file
metadata records, and produces a ``PCollection`` of ``ReadableFile`` objects.
These transforms currently do not support splitting by themselves.

Writing to Files
================

The transforms in this file include ``WriteToFiles``, which allows you to write
a ``beam.PCollection`` to files, and gives you many options to customize how to
do this.

The ``WriteToFiles`` transform supports bounded and unbounded PCollections
(i.e. it can be used both batch and streaming pipelines). For streaming
pipelines, it currently does not have support for multiple trigger firings
on the same window.

File Naming
-----------
One of the parameters received by ``WriteToFiles`` is a function specifying how
to name the files that are written. This is a function that takes in the
following parameters:

- window
- pane
- shard_index
- total_shards
- compression
- destination

It should return a file name that is unique for a combination of these
parameters.

The default naming strategy is to name files
in the format
`$prefix-$start-$end-$pane-$shard-of-$numShards$suffix$compressionSuffix`,
where:

- `$prefix` is, by default, `"output"`.
- `$start` and `$end` are the boundaries of the window for the data being
  written. These are omitted if we're using the Global window.
- `$pane` is the index for the number of firing for a window.
- `$shard` and `$numShards` are the current shard number, and the total number
  of shards for this window firing.
- `$suffix` is, by default, an empty string, but it can be set by the user via
  ``default_file_naming``.

Dynamic Destinations
--------------------
If the elements in the input ``beam.PCollection`` can be partitioned into groups
that should be treated differently (e.g. some events are to be stored as CSV,
while some others are to be stored as Avro files), it is possible to do this
by passing a `destination` parameter to ``WriteToFiles``. Something like the
following::

    my_pcollection | beam.io.fileio.WriteToFiles(
          path='/my/file/path',
          destination=lambda record: 'avro' if record['type'] == 'A' else 'csv',
          sink=lambda dest: AvroSink() if dest == 'avro' else CsvSink(),
          file_naming=beam.io.fileio.destination_prefix_naming())

In this transform, depending on the type of a record, it will be written down to
a destination named `'avro'`, or `'csv'`. The value returned by the
`destination` call is then passed to the `sink` call, to determine what sort of
sink will be used for each destination. The return type of the `destination`
parameter can be anything, as long as elements can be grouped by it.
