pitrou opened a new pull request #1675: ARROW-2046: [Python] Support path-like
objects
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1675
IO functions accepting string filenames should also accept PEP 519 path
objects such as pathlib.Path (on Python 3.6 and later).

> [Python] Add support for PEP519 - pathlib and similar objects
> -------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-2046
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2046
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Python
> Reporter: Victor Uriarte
> Assignee: Antoine Pitrou
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
> Fix For: 0.9.0

> Currently `pyarrow` doesn't seem to support reading from `pathlib.Path` or
> similar objects. [PEP519|https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0519/]
> introduced `__fspath__` which could be used to transform any `Path` like
> object to a string.
> [Pandas|https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/blob/a9d8e04ab68f688f899b4164bfa1ac868c9c1c64/pandas/io/common.py#L120-L160]
> has a sample implementation, though I think a simpler implementation of it
> could be used.

> {code:java}
> import pathlib
> import pandas as pd
> import pyarrow as pa
> import pyarrow.parquet as pq
> df = pd.DataFrame({
> 'Foo': ['A', 'A', 'B', 'B', 'C'],
> 'Bar': ['A1', 'A2', 'B2', 'D3', ''],
> })
> test_dir = pathlib.Path(__file__).parent / 'test'
> test_dir.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)
> table = pa.Table.from_pandas(df)
> path = test_dir / 'file1.parquet'
> # Doesn't work
> pq.write_table(table, path)
> # Works
> pq.write_table(table, str(path))
> {code}
