How to use Boto3 to get the details of multiple glue jobs at a time?


In this article, we will see how to get a list of resource metadata for a given list of job names.

Problem Statement − Use boto3 library in Python to get the jobs available in your account. For example, get the details of jobs those are available in your account.

Approach/Algorithm to solve this problem

Step 1 − Import boto3 and botocore exceptions to handle exceptions.

Step 2 − No parameter is required for this function. It will fetch all listed jobs for user account and then display metadata of each job.

Step 3 − Create an AWS session using boto3 library. Make sure the region_name is mentioned in default profile. If it is not mentioned, then explicitly pass the region_name while creating the session.

Step 4 − Create an AWS client for glue.

Step 5 − Now use list_jobs function to get all the jobs that are listed in user account.

Step 6 − Call batch_get_jobs and pass the job names fetched in previous function.

Step 7 − It returns list_of_jobs and metadata of each job.

Step 8 − Handle the generic exception if something went wrong while checking the job.

Example

Use the following code to fetch details of each job listed in user account −

import boto3
from botocore.exceptions import ClientError

def get_resource_maetadata_of_glue_jobs():
   session = boto3.session.Session()
   glue_client = session.client('glue')
   try:
      list_of_jobs = glue_client.list_jobs()
      response = glue_client.batch_get_jobs(JobNames=list_of_jobs['JobNames'])

      return list_of_jobs, response
   except ClientError as e:
      raise Exception( "boto3 client error in get_resource_maetadata_of_glue_jobs: " + e.__str__())
   except Exception as e:
      raise Exception( "Unexpected error in get_resource_maetadata_of_glue_jobs: " + e.__str__())

a, b = get_resource_metadat_of_glue_jobs()
#List of Jobs
print(a)
#Resource metadata of each job
print(b)

Output
