Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-8283: ---------------------------------------------- [~npr] I am not fully sure it is a duplicate. At least from the higher level picture, the other talks about _discovery_ (in which case you shouldn't end up with non-existing paths) while this issue about when manually creating a dataset of a list of paths. The fix might still be related though > [C++/Python][Dataset] Non-existent files are silently dropped in > pa.dataset.FileSystemDataset > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-8283 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8283 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: C++ - Dataset, Python > Reporter: Uwe Korn > Priority: Major > > When passing a list of files to the constructor of > {{pyarrow.dataset.FileSystemDataset}}, all files that don't exist are > silently dropped immediately (i.e. no fragments are created for them). > Instead, I would expect that fragments will be created for them but an error > is thrown when one tries to read the fragment with the non-existent file. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
