>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: New Feature

> Hello,
> I tried to use the row_group filtering at the file level with an instance of 
> ParquetDataset without success.
> I've tested the workaround propose here:
>  [https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/issues/26551#issuecomment-497039883]
> But I wonder if it can work on a file as I get an exception with the 
> following code:
> {code:python}
> ParquetDataset('data.parquet',
>                filters=[('ticker', '=', 'AAPL')]).read().to_pandas()
> {code}
> {noformat}
> AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'filter_accepts_partition'
> {noformat}
> I read the documentation, and the filtering seems to work only on partitioned 
> dataset. Moreover I read some information in the following JIRA ticket:
>  https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-1796
> So I'm not sure that a ParquetDataset can use row_group statistics to filter 
> specific row_group in a file in a dataset or not?
> As mentioned in ARROW-1796, I tried with fastparquet, and after fixing a bug 
> (statistics.min instead of statistics.min_value), I was able to apply the 
> row_group filtering.
> Today I'm forced with pyarrow to filter manually the row_groups in each file, 
> which prevents me to use the ParquetDataset partition filtering functionality.
> The row groups are really useful because it prevents to fill the filesystem 
> with small files...
