Hi! Could someone tell me if this is a feature or a bug (pyarrow 17.0.0).
When I have a dictionary column: In [15]: a1 Out[15]: pyarrow.Table a: dictionary<values=int64, indices=int32, ordered=0> ---- a: [ -- dictionary: [1] -- indices: [0]] I store it in parquet file: In [16]: pq.write_table(a1, 'dict.parquet') And read it back: a2=pq.read_table('dict.parquet') The column is no longer a dictionary: In [18]: a2 Out[18]: pyarrow.Table a: int64 ---- a: [[1]] Best Regards, Jacek Pliszka
