- Update to version 0.7.1
* Back compile for older versions of numpy
* Make pandas nullable types opt-out. The old behaviour (casting
to float) is still available with ParquetFile(...,
pandas_nulls=False).
* Fix time field regression: IsAdjustedToUTC will be False when
there is no timezone
* Micro improvements to the speed of ParquetFile creation by
using simple simple string ops instead of regex and
regularising filenames once at the start. Effects datasets with
many files.
- Release 0.7.0
* This version institutes major, breaking changes, listed here,
and incremental fixes and additions.
* Reading a directory without a _metadata summary file now works
by providing only the directory, instead of a list of
constituent files. This change also makes direct of use of
fsspec filesystems, if given, to be able to load the footer
metadata areas of the files concurrently, if the storage
backend supports it, and not directly instantiating
intermediate ParquetFile instances
* row-level filtering of the data. Whereas previously, only full
row-groups could be excluded on the basis of their parquet
metadata statistics (if present), filtering can now be done
within row-groups too. The syntax is the same as before,
allowing for multiple column expressions to be combined with
AND|OR, depending on the list structure. This mechanism
requires two passes: one to load the columns needed to create
the boolean mask, and another to load the columns actually
needed in the output. This will not be faster, and may be
slower, but in some cases can save significant memory
footprint, if a small fraction of rows are considered good and
the columns for the filter expression are not in the output.
Not currently supported for reading with DataPageV2.
* DELTA integer encoding (read-only): experimentally working,
but we only have one test file to verify against, since it is
not trivial to persuade Spark to produce files encoded this
way. DELTA can be extremely compact a representation for
slowly varying and/or monotonically increasing integers.
* nanosecond resolution times: the new extended "logical" types
system supports nanoseconds alongside the previous millis and
micros. We now emit these for the default pandas time type,
and produce full parquet schema including both "converted" and
"logical" type information. Note that all output has
isAdjustedToUTC=True, i.e., these are timestamps rather than
local time. The time-zone is stored in the metadata, as
before, and will be successfully recreated only in fastparquet
and (py)arrow. Otherwise, the times will appear to be UTC. For
compatibility with Spark, you may still want to use
times="int96" when writing.
* DataPageV2 writing: now we support both reading and writing.
For writing, can be enabled with the environment variable
FASTPARQUET_DATAPAGE_V2, or module global fastparquet.writer.
DATAPAGE_VERSION and is off by default. It will become on by
default in the future. In many cases, V2 will result in better
read performance, because the data and page headers are
encoded separately, so data can be directly read into the
output without addition allocation/copies. This feature is
considered experimental, but we believe it working well for
most use cases (i.e., our test suite) and should be readable
by all modern parquet frameworks including arrow and spark.
* pandas nullable types: pandas supports "masked" extension
arrays for types that previously could not support NULL at
all: ints and bools. Fastparquet used to cast such columns to
float, so that we could represent NULLs as NaN; now we use the
new(er) masked types by default. This means faster reading of
such columns, as there is no conversion. If the metadata
guarantees that there are no nulls, we still use the
non-nullable variant unless the data was written with
fastparquet/pyarrow, and the metadata indicates that the
original datatype was nullable. We already handled writing of
nullable columns.
