[jira] [Updated] (ARROW-3247) [Python] Support spark parquet array
and map types
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3247?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Wes McKinney updated ARROW-3247:
--------------------------------
Summary: [Python] Support spark parquet array and map types (was: Support spark parquet array and map types)
> [Python] Support spark parquet array and map types
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-3247
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-3247
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Python
> Reporter: Martin Durant
> Priority: Minor
>
> As far I understand, there is already some support for nested array/dict/structs in arrow. However, spark Map and List types are structured one level deeper (I believe to allow for both NULL and empty entries). Surprisingly, fastparquet can load these. I do not know the plan for arbitrary nested object support, but it should be made clear.
