feat: list_tables accepts a DatasetListItem #588
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Code:
for dataset in bqclient.list_datasets():
tables = list(bqclient.list_tables(dataset, max_results=1))
if len(tables) == 0:
bqclient.delete_dataset(dataset)Output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "2021/04-test-dataset-cleanup/cleanup.py", line 11, in <module>
tables = len(bqclient.list_tables(dataset, max_results=1))
File "/Users/swast/miniconda3/envs/scratch/lib/python3.8/site-packages/google/cloud/bigquery/client.py", line 1327, in list_tables
raise TypeError("dataset must be a Dataset, DatasetReference, or string")
TypeError: dataset must be a Dataset, DatasetReference, or string
Describe the solution you'd like
Where Dataset or DatasetReference is accepted, also accept a DatasetListItem.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I know that we created DatasetListItem.reference, which I can use, but it'd be a bit more intuitive if I didn't have to.
