Eric Johston commented on BEAM-2390:
------------------------------------

My initial commit had some errors in that

a) TimePartitioning is not serializable, and
b) CreateTables#possibleCreate fails when TableDestination includes a partition 
with $

I've made changes to these by storing TimePartitioning in Json format similar 
to how the schemas are propagated. I've also modified the table creation such 
that when creating a table Beam only looks at the part before $. It seems to be 
working now (running this from my own fork in production)

> allow user to use .setTimePartitioning in BigQueryIO.write

> Currently when writing to a table with BigQueryIO sink, there is no way to 
> create a new table that is date partitioned. This would be very useful, since 
> currently the only way to do this is  by manually creating a table ahead of 
> time. We should be able to leverage the automatic table creation 
> functionality for date partitioned tables.
> The best way to do this would be to have a withTimePartitioning method in the 
> BigQueryIO class.
