Expand description

Represents Arrow’s metadata of a “column”.

A Field is the closest representation of the traditional “column”: a logical type (DataType) with a name and nullability. A Field has optional Metadata that can be used to annotate the field with custom metadata.

Almost all IO in this crate uses Field to represent logical information about the data to be serialized.

Fields

name: String

Its name

data_type: DataType

Its logical DataType

is_nullable: bool

Its nullability

metadata: BTreeMap<String, String>

Additional custom (opaque) metadata.
