将带有 timedeltas 的 Pandas 数据帧写入镶木地板

Question

我似乎无法通过 pyarrow 将包含 timedeltas 的 Pandas 数据帧写入镶木地板文件。

该pyarrow文档指定它可以处理numpy的timedeltas64与ms精确度。但是，当我从 numpy 构建数据框时timedelta64[ms]，该列的数据类型是timedelta64[ns].

Pyarrow 然后因此引发错误。

这是熊猫或pyarrow中的错误吗？有没有简单的解决方法？

以下代码：

df = pd.DataFrame({
    'timedelta': np.arange(start=0, stop=1000,
        step=10,
         dtype='timedelta64[ms]')
})

print(df.timedelta.dtypes)

df.to_parquet('test.parquet', engine='pyarrow', compression='gzip')

产生以下输出：timedelta64[ns]和错误：

Answer 1

fastparquet支持 timedelta 类型。

首先安装fastparquet，例如：

pip install fastparquet

然后你可以使用这个：

df.to_parquet('test.parquet.gzip', engine='fastparquet', compression='gzip')
