Python Wheels
We have provided official binary wheels on PyPI for Linux, macOS, and Windows:
pip install pyarrow==18.1.*
We recommend pinning 18.1.*
in requirements.txt
to install the latest patch release.
These include the Apache Arrow and Apache Parquet C++ binary libraries bundled with the wheel.

:
go get github.com/apache/arrow/go/v18@v18.1.0
The Apache Arrow module can then be imported using:
import "github.com/apache/arrow/go/v/arrow"

C# Packages
We have provided NuGet packages for Apache Arrow C#:
Other Installers
For convenience, we also provide packages through several package managers. Many of them are provided as binary, built from the source release. As the Apache Arrow PMC has not explicitly voted on these packages, they are technically considered unofficial releases.
C++ and Python Conda Packages

- R 4.1, 4.2, 4.3
Install them with:
conda install arrow-cpp=18.1.* -c conda-forge
conda install pyarrow=18.1.* -c conda-forge
conda install r-arrow=18.1.* -c conda-forge
C++ and GLib (C) Packages on Homebrew
On macOS, you can install the C++ library using Homebrew:
brew install apache-arrow
and GLib (C) package with:
brew install apache-arrow-glib
