> So at present, i must use pd.read_csv with the f returned by fs.open and retrieve schema info from mysql's TBLS where the detail schema info truly located of hive metastore. I think this design is not perfect. Arrow doesn't have functionality to natively interact with or understand hive metastores. So if you have a CSV file stored, and you want to read this following the schema stored in the hive metastore, then you will at the moment always need to do something manually like what you described above. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
