Via Cargo

If you have a rust nightly toolchain installed, you can install this tool via cargo.

cargo +nightly install odbc2parquet

Mapping of types

The tool queries the ODBC Data source for type information and maps it to parquet type as such:

ODBC SQL Type Parquet Logical Type
Decimal(p=0..18, s=0) Decimal(p,s)
Numeric(p=0..18, s=0) Decimal(p,s)
Bit Boolean
Double Double
Real Float
Float Float
Tiny Integer Int8
Small Integer Int16
Integer Int32
Big Int Int64
Date Date
Timestamp Timestamp Microseconds
All others Utf8 Byte Array

p is short for precision. s is short for scale. Intervals are inclusive the last element.
