    brief: Create a new Cloud Bigtable table.
    description: Create a new Cloud Bigtable table.
    examples: |
      To create a table `my-table` in instance `my-instance` with a column family `my-family`, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family"

      To create a table that has a column family named `my-instance`, a garbage collection policy
      that lets data expire after 864,000 seconds, and initial table splits on row keys `car` and `key`, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family:maxage=864000s" --splits=car,key

      To create a table `my-table` in instance `my-instance` that lets data in column family `my-family1`
      expire after 10 days and keeps a maximum of 5 cells per column in column family `my-family-2` if the data is less than 5 days old, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family-1:maxage=10d,my-family-2:maxversions=5||maxage=5d"

      To create a table `my-table` that has one column family `my-family` that lets data expire after 10 days, and to enable a change stream
      for the table to be kept for 7 days, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family:maxage=10d" --change-stream-retention-period=7d

      To create a deletion-protected table `my-table` in instance `my-instance` with a column family `my-family`, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family" --deletion-protection

      To create a table `my-table` without deletion protection in instance `my-instance` with a column family `my-family`, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family" --no-deletion-protection

      To create a table `my-table` with the default automated backup policy (retention_period=7d, frequency=1d) enabled in instance `my-instance` with a column family `my-family`, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family" --enable-automated-backup

      To create a table `my-table` with a custom automated backup policy configured to retain backups for 30 days in instance `my-instance` with a column family `my-family`, run:

      $ {command} my-table --instance=my-instance --column-families="my-family" --automated-backup-retention_period=30d

        A double-quote (`"`) wrapped list of family name and corresponding garbage collection rules
        concatenated by `:`, where the rules are optional. For example:
        `"family_1,family_2:maxage=5d&&maxversions=2,family_3:maxage=10d||maxversions=5"`

    - api_field: createTableRequest.initialSplits

        Row keys where the table should initially be split. For example: `car,key`

    - api_field: createTableRequest.table.changeStreamConfig.retentionPeriod
      arg_name: change-stream-retention-period
      help_text: |
        The length of time to retain change stream data for the table, in the range of
        [1 day, 7 days]. Acceptable units are days (d), hours (h), minutes (m), and seconds (s).
        Passing in a value for this option enables a change stream for the table. Examples: `5d` or
        `48h`.

        The age at which data should be moved to infrequent access storage.

    - api_field: createTableRequest.table.deletionProtection
      arg_name: deletion-protection
      type: bool
      help_text: |
        Once specified, the table is deletion protected.
    - arg_name: row-key-schema-definition-file
      required: false
      help_text: |
        The row key schema for the table. The schema is defined in a YAML or JSON file, equivalent
        to the StructType protobuf message.

        Example YAML:

        ```yaml
        encoding:
          delimitedBytes:
            delimiter: '#'
        fields:
        - fieldName: field1
          type:
            bytesType:
              encoding:
                raw: {}
        - fieldName: field2
          type:
            bytesType:
              encoding:
                raw: {}
        ```

    - arg_name: row-key-schema-pre-encoded-bytes
      type: bool
      default: false
      required: false
      help_text: |
        By default, Base64 encoding is applied to all binary fields in the YAML/JSON file (for
        example, `encoding.delimitedBytes.delimiter`).

        Use this to indicate that all binary fields are already encoded in the YAML/JSON file and
        should not be encoded again.
