Lucas Mation created ARROW-18218:
------------------------------------
Summary: [R] read_fwf_arrow
Key: ARROW-18218
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-18218
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Lucas Mation
It would be great if `arrow` provided a function to read fixed-width file (FWF)
formats.
I have asked for help with this in two SO posts
([here|http://example.com]https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74280697/dplyr-way-to-break-variable-into-multiple-columns-acording-to-layout-dictionar/74281380?noredirect=1#comment131145927_74281380
and
[here|http://example.com]https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74276222/r-arrow-how-to-read-fwf-format-in-r-using-arrow/74279929#74279929),
but have not had much success so far.
