apologies - I made of mess of that email. Let me try again
- *Question 1* - pyarrow.HadoopFileSystem.download <https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/generated/pyarrow.HadoopFileSystem.download.html > - is listed under Filesystem Interface (Legacy) (and so are all the HDFS APIs) - does this mean support for this is limited? - *Question 2* - is there an equivalent to pyarrow.HadoopFileSystem.download in the newer pyarrow.fs.HadoopFileSystem <https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/generated/pyarrow.fs.HadoopFileSystem.html#pyarrow.fs.HadoopFileSystem> . I want to be able to fetch/download an HDFS entire file or folder to the HOST OS filesystem - Let me know if you have any guidance On Fri, 31 Jul 2020 at 23:02, Akbar <ed.ak...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello, > > Documentation on legacy file system interface is not quite clear.
