Hi Vibhatha,
The APIs exist and are declared (in Cython) as:
cdef public object pyarrow_wrap_scalar(const shared_ptr[CScalar]& sp_scalar)
cdef public shared_ptr[CScalar] pyarrow_unwrap_scalar(object scalar)
However, it appears that we forgot to document them.
Regards
Antoine.

The use case is to pass a Scalar created in Python to a kernel written in
C++ backend which supports arrow data types.
To support this I need to unwrap the Pyarrow Scalar to a C++ arrow Scalar.
With Regards,

I'm not sure what kind of unwrapping you are looking for, would
pyarrow.scalar and Scalar.as_py address your use case? For example,
pa.scalar(128) will wrap that integer into a Scalar

Hello,
Is there a way to wrap and unwrap Scalars using the Cython API?
I am following the docs:
https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/extending.html
But I couldn't find an option. Not sure if I am following the correct
docs.
