Module arrow::datatypes

source ·
Expand description

Defines the logical data types of Arrow arrays.

The most important things you might be looking for are:

  • Schema to describe a schema.
  • Field to describe one field within a schema.
  • DataType to describe the type of a field.

Structs

Enums

The set of datatypes that are supported by this implementation of Apache Arrow.
YEAR_MONTH, DAY_TIME, MONTH_DAY_NANO interval in SQL style.
An absolute length of time in seconds, milliseconds, microseconds or nanoseconds.

Constants

MAX_DECIMAL_FOR_EACH_PRECISION[p] holds the maximum i128 value that can be stored in arrow_schema::DataType::Decimal128 value of precision p
MIN_DECIMAL_FOR_EACH_PRECISION[p] holds the minimum i128 value that can be stored in a arrow_schema::DataType::Decimal128 value of precision p

Traits

A subtype of primitive type that represents legal dictionary keys. See https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html
Trait expressing a Rust type that has the same in-memory representation as Arrow. This includes i16, f32, but excludes bool (which in arrow is represented in bits).
Trait for ArrowNativeType that adds checked and unchecked arithmetic operations, and totally ordered comparison operations
Trait bridging the dynamic-typed nature of Arrow (via DataType) with the static-typed nature of rust types (ArrowNativeType) for all types that implement ArrowNativeType.
A subtype of primitive type that represents temporal values.
A timestamp type allows us to create array builders that take a timestamp.
A trait over the variable-size byte array types
A trait over the decimal types, used by DecimalArray to provide a generic implementation across the various decimal types
Allows conversion from supported Arrow types to a byte slice.

Functions

Validates that the specified byte_array of little-endian format value can be properly interpreted as a Decimal256 number with precision precision
Validates that the specified i128 value can be properly interpreted as a Decimal number with precision precision
