ParquetFileReader class

Factory

The ParquetFileReader$create() factory method instantiates the object and takes the following arguments:

• file A character file name, raw vector, or Arrow file connection object (e.g. RandomAccessFile).

• props Optional ParquetReaderProperties

• mmap Logical: whether to memory-map the file (default TRUE)

• ... Additional arguments, currently ignored

Methods

• $ReadTable(col_select): get an arrow::Table from the file, possibly with columns filtered by a character vector of column names or a tidyselect specification.

• $GetSchema(): get the arrow::Schema of the data in the file

Super class

arrow::Object -> ParquetFileReader
