class pyarrow.fs.HadoopFileSystem(unicode host, int port=8020, unicode user=None, *, int replication=3, int buffer_size=0, default_block_size=None, kerb_ticket=None, extra_conf=None)¶

Bases: pyarrow._fs.FileSystem

HDFS backed FileSystem implementation

Parameters

hoststr: HDFS host to connect to. Set to “default” for fs.defaultFS from core-site.xml.
portint, default 8020: HDFS port to connect to. Set to 0 for default or logical (HA) nodes.
userstr, default None: Username when connecting to HDFS; None implies login user.
replicationint, default 3: Number of copies each block will have.
buffer_sizeint, default 0: If 0, no buffering will happen otherwise the size of the temporary read and write buffer.

Attributes

type_name

The filesystem's type name.

copy_file(self, src, dest)¶

Copy a file.

If the destination exists and is a directory, an error is returned. Otherwise, it is replaced.

Parameters

srcstr: The path of the file to be copied from.
deststr: The destination path where the file is copied to.

create_dir(self, path, *, bool recursive=True)¶

Create a directory and subdirectories.

This function succeeds if the directory already exists.

Parameters

pathstr: The path of the new directory.
recursive: bool, default True: Create nested directories as well.

delete_dir(self, path)¶

Delete a directory and its contents, recursively.

Parameters

pathstr: The path of the directory to be deleted.

delete_dir_contents(self, path, *, bool accept_root_dir=False)¶

Delete a directory’s contents, recursively.

Like delete_dir, but doesn’t delete the directory itself.

Parameters

pathstr: The path of the directory to be deleted.
accept_root_dirbool, default False: Allow deleting the root directory’s contents (if path is empty or “/”)

delete_file(self, path)¶

Delete a file.

Parameters

pathstr: The path of the file to be deleted.

equals(self, FileSystem other)¶

static from_uri(uri)¶

Instantiate HadoopFileSystem object from an URI string.

The following two calls are equivalent

HadoopFileSystem.from_uri('hdfs://localhost:8020/?user=test&replication=1')
HadoopFileSystem('localhost', port=8020, user='test', replication=1)

Parameters

uristr: A string URI describing the connection to HDFS. In order to change the user, replication, buffer_size or default_block_size pass the values as query parts.

Returns

HadoopFileSystem

get_file_info(self, paths_or_selector)¶

Get info for the given files.

Any symlink is automatically dereferenced, recursively. A non-existing or unreachable file returns a FileStat object and has a FileType of value NotFound. An exception indicates a truly exceptional condition (low-level I/O error, etc.).

Parameters

paths_or_selector: FileSelector, path-like or list of path-likes: Either a selector object, a path-like object or a list of path-like objects. The selector’s base directory will not be part of the results, even if it exists. If it doesn’t exist, use allow_not_found.

Returns

FileInfo or list of FileInfo: Single FileInfo object is returned for a single path, otherwise a list of FileInfo objects is returned.

move(self, src, dest)¶

Move / rename a file or directory.

If the destination exists: - if it is a non-empty directory, an error is returned - otherwise, if it has the same type as the source, it is replaced - otherwise, behavior is unspecified (implementation-dependent).

Parameters

srcstr: The path of the file or the directory to be moved.
deststr: The destination path where the file or directory is moved to.

normalize_path(self, path)¶

Normalize filesystem path.

Parameters

pathstr: The path to normalize

Returns

normalized_pathstr: The normalized path

open_append_stream(self, path, compression='detect', buffer_size=None, metadata=None)¶

Open an output stream for appending.

If the target doesn’t exist, a new empty file is created.

Note

Some filesystem implementations do not support efficient appending to an existing file, in which case this method will raise NotImplementedError. Consider writing to multiple files (using e.g. the dataset layer) instead.

Parameters

pathstr: The source to open for writing.
compressionstr optional, default ‘detect’: The compression algorithm to use for on-the-fly compression. If “detect” and source is a file path, then compression will be chosen based on the file extension. If None, no compression will be applied. Otherwise, a well-known algorithm name must be supplied (e.g. “gzip”).
buffer_sizeint optional, default None: If None or 0, no buffering will happen. Otherwise the size of the temporary write buffer.
metadatadict optional, default None: If not None, a mapping of string keys to string values. Some filesystems support storing metadata along the file (such as “Content-Type”). Unsupported metadata keys will be ignored.

Returns

streamNativeFile

open_input_file(self, path)¶

Open an input file for random access reading.

Parameters

pathstr: The source to open for reading.

Returns

stramNativeFile

open_input_stream(self, path, compression='detect', buffer_size=None)¶

Open an input stream for sequential reading.

Parameters

sourcestr: The source to open for reading.
compressionstr optional, default ‘detect’: The compression algorithm to use for on-the-fly decompression. If “detect” and source is a file path, then compression will be chosen based on the file extension. If None, no compression will be applied. Otherwise, a well-known algorithm name must be supplied (e.g. “gzip”).
buffer_sizeint optional, default None: If None or 0, no buffering will happen. Otherwise the size of the temporary read buffer.

Returns

streamNativeFile

open_output_stream(self, path, compression='detect', buffer_size=None, metadata=None)¶

Open an output stream for sequential writing.

If the target already exists, existing data is truncated.

Parameters

pathstr: The source to open for writing.
compressionstr optional, default ‘detect’: The compression algorithm to use for on-the-fly compression. If “detect” and source is a file path, then compression will be chosen based on the file extension. If None, no compression will be applied. Otherwise, a well-known algorithm name must be supplied (e.g. “gzip”).
buffer_sizeint optional, default None: If None or 0, no buffering will happen. Otherwise the size of the temporary write buffer.
metadatadict optional, default None: If not None, a mapping of string keys to string values. Some filesystems support storing metadata along the file (such as “Content-Type”). Unsupported metadata keys will be ignored.

Returns

streamNativeFile

type_name¶: The filesystem’s type name.
