pyarrow.serialize¶
- pyarrow.serialize(value, SerializationContext context=None)¶
DEPRECATED: Serialize a general Python sequence for transient storage and transport.
Deprecated since version 2.0: The custom serialization functionality is deprecated in pyarrow 2.0, and will be removed in a future version. Use the standard library
pickle
or the IPC functionality of pyarrow (see Streaming, Serialization, and IPC for more).- Parameters:
- valueobject
Python object for the sequence that is to be serialized.
- context
SerializationContext
Custom serialization and deserialization context, uses a default context with some standard type handlers if not specified.
- Returns:
- serialized
SerializedPyObject
- serialized
Notes
This function produces data that is incompatible with the standard Arrow IPC binary protocol, i.e. it cannot be used with ipc.open_stream or ipc.open_file. You can use deserialize, deserialize_from, or deserialize_components to read it.
