`close()`

    Close httplib2 connections.

`delete(projectId, datasetId, routineId)`

    Deletes the routine specified by routineId from the dataset.

    Args:
      projectId: string, Required. Project ID of the routine to delete (required)
      datasetId: string, Required. Dataset ID of the routine to delete (required)
      routineId: string, Required. Routine ID of the routine to delete (required)

`get(projectId, datasetId, routineId, readMask=None)`

    Gets the specified routine resource by routine ID.

    Args:
      projectId: string, Required. Project ID of the requested routine (required)
      datasetId: string, Required. Dataset ID of the requested routine (required)
      routineId: string, Required. Routine ID of the requested routine (required)
      readMask: string, If set, only the Routine fields in the field mask are returned in the response. If unset, all Routine fields are returned.

    Returns:
      An object of the form:

      previous_request: The request for the previous page. (required)
      previous_response: The response from the request for the previous page. (required)

    Returns:
      A request object that you can call 'execute()' on to request the next
      page. Returns None if there are no more items in the collection.

`update(projectId, datasetId, routineId, body=None)`

    Updates information in an existing routine. The update method replaces the entire Routine resource.

    Args:
      projectId: string, Required. Project ID of the routine to update (required)
      datasetId: string, Required. Dataset ID of the routine to update (required)
      routineId: string, Required. Routine ID of the routine to update (required)
      body: object, The request body.
        The object takes the form of:

    { # A user-defined function or a stored procedure.
      "lastModifiedTime": "A String", # Output only. The time when this routine was last modified, in milliseconds since the epoch.
      "returnType": { # The type of a variable, e.g., a function argument. Examples: INT64: {type_kind="INT64"} ARRAY: {type_kind="ARRAY", array_element_type="STRING"} STRUCT>: {type_kind="STRUCT", struct_type={fields=[ {name="x", type={type_kind="STRING"}}, {name="y", type={type_kind="ARRAY", array_element_type="DATE"}} ]}} # Optional if language = "SQL"; required otherwise. If absent, the return type is inferred from definition_body at query time in each query that references this routine. If present, then the evaluated result will be cast to the specified returned type at query time. For example, for the functions created with the following statements: * `CREATE FUNCTION Add(x FLOAT64, y FLOAT64) RETURNS FLOAT64 AS (x + y);` * `CREATE FUNCTION Increment(x FLOAT64) AS (Add(x, 1));` * `CREATE FUNCTION Decrement(x FLOAT64) RETURNS FLOAT64 AS (Add(x, -1));` The return_type is `{type_kind: "FLOAT64"}` for `Add` and `Decrement`, and is absent for `Increment` (inferred as FLOAT64 at query time). Suppose the function `Add` is replaced by `CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION Add(x INT64, y INT64) AS (x + y);` Then the inferred return type of `Increment` is automatically changed to INT64 at query time, while the return type of `Decrement` remains FLOAT64.

      "definitionBody": "A String", # Required. The body of the routine. For functions, this is the expression in the AS clause. If language=SQL, it is the substring inside (but excluding) the parentheses. For example, for the function created with the following statement: `CREATE FUNCTION JoinLines(x string, y string) as (concat(x, "\n", y))` The definition_body is `concat(x, "\n", y)` (\n is not replaced with linebreak). If language=JAVASCRIPT, it is the evaluated string in the AS clause. For example, for the function created with the following statement: `CREATE FUNCTION f() RETURNS STRING LANGUAGE js AS 'return "\n";\n'` The definition_body is `return "\n";\n` Note that both \n are replaced with linebreaks.
      "determinismLevel": "A String", # Optional. [Experimental] The determinism level of the JavaScript UDF if defined.

    Returns:
      An object of the form:
