    brief: Create a new BigQuery table.
    description: |-
      Create a new BigQuery table.
      Create a table or view with a specified name. A view is a collection of rows
      selected by a query in a flag, and manipulated as a table. The dataset to contain
      the table or view must already exist, and must not contain a table or view with
      the specified name.
    examples: |
      The following command creates a table with ID  `my-table` in `my-dataset`:

        $ {command}  /projects/myproject/datasets/my-dataset/tables/my-table --description 'My New Table'

      The following command creates a view with ID `my-view` in dataset `my-other-dataset`:

        $ {command}  my-view --dataset my-other-dataset \
          --view 'SELECT field1, field3 FROM `my-project.my-other-dataset.my-table`'

            A comma-separated list of entries of the form FIELD_NAME[=FIELD_TYPE] specifying field names
            and types for the table being created. FIELD_TYPE defaults to string if not present.
            Possible FIELD_TYPES are `string`, `integer`, `float`, `boolean`, `record`, and `timestamp`.

          help_text: |-
            The name of a JSON file containing a single object containing an array each element
            of which is an object with properties name, type, and, optionally a
            mode (one of: `NULLABLE`, `REQUIRED` or `REPEATED`), specifying a schema for the table
            being created. If mode is omitted the default is 'NULLABLE'.

            For example:
            {
              'schema':
                [
                  {

                    'type': 'string',
                    'mode': 'REQUIRED'
                  },
                  {
                    'name': 'field2',
                    'type': 'integer',
                    'mode': 'REPEATED'
                  },
                  [
                    {
                      'name': 'fieldN',
                      'type': TYPE,
                      ['mode': MODE]
                    }
                    ...
                  ]
                ]
