tadeja opened a new pull request, #48727:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/48727
### Rationale for this change
This is to cover reported issues #48241, #44224 and #43855.
Currently uuid.UUID objects are not inferred/converted automatically in
PyArrow, requiring users to explicitly specify the type.
### What changes are included in this PR?
Adding support for Python's uuid.UUID objects in PyArrow's type inference
and conversion.
### Are these changes tested?
Yes, added test_uuid_scalar_from_python() and test_uuid_array_from_python()
in `test_extension.py`.
### Are there any user-facing changes?
Users can now pass Python uuid.UUID objects directly to PyArrow functions
like pa.scalar() and pa.array() without specifying the type;
```python
import uuid
import pyarrow as pa
pa.scalar(uuid.uuid4())
```
<pyarrow.UuidScalar: UUID('958174b9-3a5c-4cdd-8fc5-d51a2fc55784')>
```python
pa.array([uuid.uuid4()])
```
<pyarrow.lib.UuidArray object at 0x1217725f0>
