------------------------------------
Summary: Increase the minimum pyarrow version to 0.12.0
Key: SPARK-27276
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27276
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: PySpark, SQL
Affects Versions: 3.0.0
Reporter: Bryan Cutler
The current minimum version is 0.8.0, which is pretty ancient since Arrow has
been moving fast and a lot has changed since this version. There are currently
many workarounds checking for different versions or disabling specific
functionality, and the code is getting ugly and difficult to maintain.
Increasing the version will allow cleanup and upgrade the testing environment.
This involves changing the pyarrow version in setup.py (currently at 0.8.0),
updating Jenkins to test against the new version, code cleanup to remove
workarounds from older versions. Users would then need to ensure this version
is installed on the cluster.
There is also a 0.12.1 release, so I will need to check what bugs that fixed to
see if that will be a better version.
