Installation and Usage of parquet-tools

Table of Contents

Installation

You can choose one of the installation methods from below, the functionality will be mostly the same.

Install from Source

Good for people who are familiar with Go, you need 1.17 or newer version.

$ go get github.com/hangxie/parquet-tools

it will install latest stable version of parquet-tools to $GOPATH/bin, if you do not set GOPATH environment variable explicitly, then its default value can be obtained by running go env GOPATH, usually it is go/ directory under your home directory.

parquet-tools installed from source will not report proper version and build time, so if you run parquet-tools version, it will just give you an empty line, all other functions are not affected.

Download Pre-built Binaries

Good for people do not want to build and all other installation approach do not work.

Go to release page, pick the release and platform you want to run, download the corresponding gz/zip file, extract it to your local disk, make sure the execution bit is set if you are running on Linux or Mac, then run the program.

For Windows 10 on ARM (like Surface Pro X), use either windows-arm64 or windows-386 build, if you are in Windows Insider program, windows-amd64 build should work too.

Brew Install

Mac user can use Homebrew to install, it is not part of core formula yet but you can run:

$ brew uninstall parquet-tools
$ brew tap hangxie/tap
$ brew install go-parquet-tools

parquet-tools installed by brew is a similar tool built by Java, however, it is deprecated, since both packages install same parquet-tools utility so you need to remove one before installing the other one.

Whenever you want to upgrade to latest version which you should:

$ brew upgrade go-parquet-tools

Container Image

Container image supports amd64, arm64, and arm/v7, it is hosted in two registries:

You can pull the image from either location:

$ docker run --rm hangxie/parquet-tools version
v1.20.0
$ podman run --rm ghcr.io/hangxie/parquet-tools version
v1.20.0

Prebuilt Packages

RPM and deb package can be found on release page, only amd64/x86_64 and arm64/aarch64 arch are available at this moment, download the proper package and run corresponding installation command:

  • On Debian/Ubuntu:
$ sudo dpkg -i  parquet-tools_1.20.0_amd64.deb
Preparing to unpack parquet-tools_1.20.0_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking parquet-tools (1.20.0) ...

Usage

Obtain Help

parquet-tools provides help information through -h flag, whenever you are not sure about parameter for a command, just add -h to the end of the line then it will give you all available options, for example:

$ parquet-tools meta -h
Usage: parquet-tools meta <uri>

Prints the metadata.

Arguments:
  <uri>    URI of Parquet file.

Flags:
  -h, --help                                Show context-sensitive help.

      --http-multiple-connection            (HTTP URI only) use multiple HTTP connection.
      --http-ignore-tls-error               (HTTP URI only) ignore TLS error.
      --http-extra-headers=KEY=VALUE,...    (HTTP URI only) extra HTTP headers.
      --object-version=STRING               (S3 URI only) object version.
      --anonymous                           (S3 and Azure only) object is publicly accessible.
  -b, --base64                              Encode min/max value.

Most commands can output JSON format result which can be processed by utilities like jq or JSON parser online.

Parquet File Location

parquet-tools can read and write parquet files from these locations:

  • file system
  • AWS Simple Storage Service (S3) bucket
  • Google Cloud Storage (GCS) bucket
  • Azure Storage Container

parquet-tools can read parquet files from these locations:

  • HTTP/HTTPS URL

you need to have proper permission on the file you are going to process.

File System

For files from file system, you can specify file:// scheme or just ignore it:

$ parquet-tools row-count testdata/good.parquet
4
$ parquet-tools row-count file://testdata/good.parquet
4
$ parquet-tools row-count file://./testdata/good.parquet
4

S3 Bucket

Use full S3 URL to indicate S3 object location, it starts with s3://. You need to make sure you have permission to read or write the S3 object, the easiest way to verify that is using AWS cli:

$ aws sts get-caller-identity
{
    "UserId": "REDACTED",
    "Account": "123456789012",
    "Arn": "arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/redacted"
}
aws s3 ls s3://daylight-openstreetmap/parquet/osm_features/release=v1.46/type=way/20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0
2024-05-06 08:33:48  362267322 20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0
$ parquet-tools row-count s3://daylight-openstreetmap/parquet/osm_features/release=v1.46/type=way/20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0
2405462

If an S3 object is publicly accessible and you do not have AWS credential, you can use --anonymous flag to bypass AWS authentation:

$ aws sts get-caller-identity

Unable to locate credentials. You can configure credentials by running "aws configure".
$ aws s3 --no-sign-request ls s3://daylight-openstreetmap/parquet/osm_features/release=v1.46/type=way/20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0
2024-05-06 08:33:48  362267322 20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0
$ parquet-tools row-count --anonymous s3://daylight-openstreetmap/parquet/osm_features/release=v1.46/type=way/20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0
2405462

Optionally, you can specify object version by using --object-version when you perform read operation (like cat, row-count, schema, etc.) from S3, parquet-tools will access current version if this parameter is omitted, if version for the S3 object does not exist or bucket does not have version enabled, parquet-tools will report error:

$ parquet-tools row-count s3://daylight-openstreetmap/parquet/osm_features/release=v1.46/type=way/20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0 --object-version non-existent-version
parquet-tools: error: failed to open S3 object [s3://daylight-openstreetmap/parquet/osm_features/release=v1.46/type=way/20240506_151445_00143_nanmw_fb5fe2f1-fec8-494f-8c2e-0feb15cedff0] version [non-existent-version]: operation error S3: HeadObject, https response error StatusCode: 400, RequestID: 75GZZ1W5M4KMAK1H, HostID: hgDGBOolDqLgH+CHRuZU+dXZXv4CB+mmSpjEfGxF5fLnKhNkJCWEAZBSS0kbT/k2gFotuoWNLX+zaWNWzHR49w==, api error BadRequest: Bad Request

According to HeadObject and GetObject, status code for non-existent object or version will be 403 instead of 404 if the caller does not have permission to ListBucket, or return 400 if bucket does not have version enabled.

Thanks to parquet-go-source, parquet-tools loads only necessary data from S3 bucket, for most cases it is footer only, so it is much more faster than downloading the file from S3 bucket and run parquet-tools on a local file. Size of the S3 object used in above sample is more than 4GB, but the row-count command takes just several seconds to finish.

GCS Bucket

Use full gsutil URI to point to GCS object location, it starts with gs://. You need to make sure you have permission to read or write to the GSC object, either use application default or GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS, you can refer to Google Cloud document for more details.

$ export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service/account/key.json
$ parquet-tools import -s testdata/csv.source -m testdata/csv.schema gs://REDACTED/csv.parquet
$ parquet-tools row-count gs://REDACTED/csv.parquet
7

Similar to S3, parquet-tools downloads only necessary data from GCS bucket.

Azure Storage Container

parquet-tools uses the HDFS URL format:

  • starts with wasbs:// (wasb:// is not supported), followed by
  • container as user name, followed by
  • storage account as host, followed by
  • blob name as path

for example:

wasbs://laborstatisticscontainer@azureopendatastorage.blob.core.windows.net/lfs/part-00000-tid-6312913918496818658-3a88e4f5-ebeb-4691-bfb6-e7bd5d4f2dd0-63558-c000.snappy.parquet

means the parquet file is at:

  • storage account azureopendatastorage
  • container laborstatisticscontainer
  • blob lfs/part-00000-tid-6312913918496818658-3a88e4f5-ebeb-4691-bfb6-e7bd5d4f2dd0-63558-c000.snappy.parquet

parquet-tools uses AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY environment varialbe to identity access:

$ AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY=REDACTED parquet-tools import -s testdata/csv.source -m testdata/csv.schema wasbs://REDACTED@REDACTED.blob.core.windows.net/test/csv.parquet
$ AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY=REDACTED parquet-tools row-count wasbs://REDACTED@REDACTED.blob.core.windows.net/test/csv.parquet
7

If the blob is publicly accessible, either unset AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY or use --anonymous option to indicate that anonymous access is expected:

$ AZURE_STORAGE_ACCESS_KEY= parquet-tools row-count wasbs://laborstatisticscontainer@azureopendatastorage.blob.core.windows.net/lfs/part-00000-tid-6312913918496818658-3a88e4f5-ebeb-4691-bfb6-e7bd5d4f2dd0-63558-c000.snappy.parquet
6582726
$ parquet-tools row-count --anonymous wasbs://laborstatisticscontainer@azureopendatastorage.blob.core.windows.net/lfs/part-00000-tid-6312913918496818658-3a88e4f5-ebeb-4691-bfb6-e7bd5d4f2dd0-63558-c000.snappy.parquet
6582726

Similar to S3 and GCS, parquet-tools downloads only necessary data from blob.

HTTP Endpoint

parquet-tools supports URI with http or https scheme, the remote server needs to support Range header, particularly with unit of bytes.

HTTP endpoint does not support write operation so it cannot be used as destination of import command.

These options can be used along with HTTP endpoints:

  • --http-multiple-connection will enable dedicated transport for concurrent requests, parquet-tools will establish multiple TCP connections to remote server. This may or may not have performance impact depends on how remote server handles concurrent connections, it is recommended to leave it to default false value for all commands except cat, and test performance carefully with cat command.
  • --http-extra-headers in the format of key1=value1,key2=value2,..., they will be used as extra HTTP headers, a use case is to use them for authentication/authorization that is required by remote server.
  • --http-ignore-tls-error will ignore TLS errors.
$ parquet-tools row-count https://azureopendatastorage.blob.core.windows.net/laborstatisticscontainer/lfs/part-00000-tid-6312913918496818658-3a88e4f5-ebeb-4691-bfb6-e7bd5d4f2dd0-63558-c000.snappy.parquet
6582726
$ parquet-tools size https://dpla-provider-export.s3.amazonaws.com/2021/04/all.parquet/part-00000-471427c6-8097-428d-9703-a751a6572cca-c000.snappy.parquet
4632041101

Similar to S3 and other remote endpoints, parquet-tools downloads only necessary data from remote server through Range header.

parquet-tools will use HTTP/2 if remote server supports this, however you can disable this if things are not working well by setting environment variable GODEBUG to http2client=0:

$ parquet-tools row-count https://huggingface.co/datasets/laion/laion2B-en/resolve/main/part-00047-5114fd87-297e-42b0-9d11-50f1df323dfa-c000.snappy.parquet

HDFS File

parquet-tools can read and write files under HDFS with schema hdfs://username@hostname:port/path/to/file, if username is not provided then current OS user will be used.

$ parquet-tools import -f jsonl -s testdata/jsonl.schema -s testdata/jsonl.source hdfs://localhost:9000/temp/good.parquet
parquet-tools: error: failed to create JSON writer: failed to open HDFS source [hdfs://localhost:9000/temp/good.parquet]: create /temp/good.parquet: permission denied
$ parquet-tools import -f jsonl -m testdata/jsonl.schema -s testdata/jsonl.source hdfs://root@localhost:9000/temp/good.parquet
$ parquet-tools row-count hdfs://localhost:9000/temp/good.parquet
7

Similar to cloud storage, parquet-tools downloads only necessary data from HDFS.

cat Command

cat command outputs data in parquet file, it supports JSON, JSONL, CSV, and TSV format. Due to most parquet files are rather large, you should use row-count command to have a rough idea how many rows are there in the parquet file, then use --skip, --limit and --sample-ratio flags to reduces the output to a certain level, these flags can be used together.

There are two parameters that you probably will never touch:

  • --read-page-size tells how many rows parquet-tools needs to read from the parquet file every time, you can play with it if you hit performance or resource problem.
  • --skip-page-size tells how many rows parquet-tools need to skip at a time if --skip is specified, you can play with it if you hit memory issue, read xitongsys/parquet-go#545 for more details.

Full Data Set

$ parquet-tools cat --format jsonl testdata/good.parquet
{"Shoe_brand":"nike","Shoe_name":"air_griffey"}
{"Shoe_brand":"fila","Shoe_name":"grant_hill_2"}
{"Shoe_brand":"steph_curry","Shoe_name":"curry7"}

Skip Rows

--skip is similar to OFFSET in SQL, parquet-tools will skip this many rows from beginning of the parquet file before applying other logics.

$ parquet-tools cat --skip 2 --format jsonl testdata/good.parquet
{"Shoe_brand":"steph_curry","Shoe_name":"curry7"}

parquet-tools will not report error if --skip is greater than total number of rows in parquet file.

$ parquet-tools cat --skip 20 testdata/good.parquet
[]

CSV/TSV Format

There is no standard for CSV and TSV format, parquet-tools utilizes Go's encoding/csv module to maximize compatibility, however, there is no guarantee that output can be interpretted by other utilities, especially if they are from other programming laguages.

$ parquet-tools cat -f csv testdata/good.parquet
Shoe_brand,Shoe_name
nike,air_griffey
fila,grant_hill_2
steph_curry,curry7

nil values will be presented as empty string:

$ parquet-tools cat -f csv --limit 2 testdata/int96-nil-min-max.parquet
Utf8,Int96
UTF8-0,
UTF8-1,

By default CSV and TSV output contains a header line with field names, you can use --no-header option to remove it from output.

$ parquet-tools cat -f csv --no-header testdata/good.parquet
nike,air_griffey
fila,grant_hill_2
steph_curry,curry7

CSV and TSV do not support parquet files with complex schema:

$ parquet-tools cat -f csv testdata/all-types.parquet
parquet-tools: error: field [Map] is not scalar type, cannot output in csv format
exit status 1

Limit Number of Rows

--limit is similar to LIMIT in SQL, or head in Linux shell, parquet-tools will stop running after this many rows outputs.

$ parquet-tools cat --limit 2 testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"nike","Shoe_name":"air_griffey"},{"Shoe_brand":"fila","Shoe_name":"grant_hill_2"}]

Sampling

--sample-ratio enables sampling, the ration is a number between 0.0 and 1.0 inclusively. 1.0 means output everything in the parquet file, while 0.0 means nothing. If you want to have 1 rows out of every 10 rows, use 0.1.

This feature picks rows in parquet file randomly, so only 0.0 and 1.0 will output deterministic result, all other ratio may generate data set less or more than you want.

$ parquet-tools cat --sample-ratio 0.34 testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"nike","Shoe_name":"air_griffey"}]
$ parquet-tools cat --sample-ratio 0.34 testdata/good.parquet
[]
$ parquet-tools cat --sample-ratio 0.34 testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"steph_curry","Shoe_name":"curry7"}]
$ parquet-tools cat --sample-ratio 0.34 testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"nike","Shoe_name":"air_griffey"},{"Shoe_brand":"fila","Shoe_name":"grant_hill_2"}]
$ parquet-tools cat --sample-ratio 0.34 testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"fila","Shoe_name":"grant_hill_2"}]
$ parquet-tools cat --sample-ratio 1.0 testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"nike","Shoe_name":"air_griffey"},{"Shoe_brand":"fila","Shoe_name":"grant_hill_2"},{"Shoe_brand":"steph_curry","Shoe_name":"curry7"}]
$ parquet-tools cat --sample-ratio 0.0 testdata/good.parquet
[]

Compound Rule

--skip, --limit and --sample-ratio can be used together to achieve certain goals, for example, to get the 3rd row from the parquet file:

$ parquet-tools cat --skip 2 --limit 1 testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"steph_curry","Shoe_name":"curry7"}]

Output Format

cat supports two output formats, one is the default JSON format that wraps all JSON objects into an array, this works perfectly with small output and is compatible with most JSON toolchains, however, since almost all JSON libraries load full JSON into memory to parse and process, this will lead to memory pressure if you dump a huge amount of data.

$ parquet-tools cat testdata/good.parquet
[{"Shoe_brand":"nike","Shoe_name":"air_griffey"},{"Shoe_brand":"fila","Shoe_name":"grant_hill_2"},{"Shoe_brand":"steph_curry","Shoe_name":"curry7"}]

cat also supports line delimited JSON streaming format format by specifying --format jsonl, allows reader of the output to process in a streaming manner, which will greatly reduce the memory footprint. Note that there is always a newline by end of the output.

When you want to filter data, use JSONL format output and pipe to jq.

$ parquet-tools cat --format jsonl testdata/good.parquet
{"Shoe_brand":"nike","Shoe_name":"air_griffey"}
{"Shoe_brand":"fila","Shoe_name":"grant_hill_2"}
{"Shoe_brand":"steph_curry","Shoe_name":"curry7"}

You can read data line by line and parse every single line as a JSON object if you do not have a toolchain to process JSONL format.

import Command

import command creates a parquet file based from data in other format. The target file can be on local file system or cloud storage object like S3, you need to have permission to write to target location. Existing file or cloud storage object will be overwritten.

The command takes 3 parameters, --source tells which file (file system only) to load source data, --format tells format of the source data file, it can be json, jsonl or csv, --schema points to the file holds schema. Optionally, you can use --compression to specify compression codec (UNCOMPRESSED/SNAPPY/GZIP/LZ4/ZSTD), default is "SNAPPY". If CSV file contains a header line, you can use --skip-header to skip the first line of CSV file.

Each source data file format has its own dedicated schema format:

You cannot import INT96 data at this moment, more details can be found at #149.

Import from CSV

$ parquet-tools import -f csv -s testdata/csv.source -m testdata/csv.schema /tmp/csv.parquet
$ parquet-tools row-count /tmp/csv.parquet
7

Import from JSON

$ parquet-tools import -f json -s testdata/json.source -m testdata/json.schema -z GZIP /tmp/json.parquet
$ parquet-tools row-count /tmp/json.parquet
1

As most JSON processing utilities, the whole JSON file needs to be loaded to memory and is treated as single object, so memory footprint may be significant if you try to load a large JSON file. You should use JSONL format if you deal with large amount of data.

Import from JSONL

JSONL is line-delimited JSON streaming format, use JSONL if you want to load multiple JSON objects into parquet.

$ parquet-tools import -f jsonl -s testdata/jsonl.source -m testdata/jsonl.schema /tmp/jsonl.parquet
$ parquet-tools row-count /tmp/jsonl.parquet
7

meta Command

meta command shows meta data of every row group in a parquet file.

Note that MinValue and MaxValue always show value with base type instead of converted type, i.e. INT32 instead of UINT_8. The --base64 flag applies to column with type BYTE_ARRAY or FIXED_LEN_BYTE_ARRAY only, it tells parquet-tools to output base64 encoded MinValue and MaxValue of a column, otherwise those values will be shown as UTF8 string.

Show Meta Data

$ parquet-tools meta testdata/good.parquet
{"NumRowGroups":1,"RowGroups":[{"NumRows":3,"TotalByteSize":438,"Columns":[{"PathInSchema":["Shoe_brand"],"Type":"BYTE_ARRAY","Encodings":["RLE","BIT_PACKED","PLAIN"],"CompressedSize":269,"UncompressedSize":194,"NumValues":3,"NullCount":0,"MaxValue":"steph_curry","MinValue":"fila","CompressionCodec":"GZIP"},{"PathInSchema":["Shoe_name"],"Type":"BYTE_ARRAY","Encodings":["RLE","BIT_PACKED","PLAIN"],"CompressedSize":319,"UncompressedSize":244,"NumValues":3,"NullCount":0,"MaxValue":"grant_hill_2","MinValue":"air_griffey","CompressionCodec":"GZIP"}]}]}

Show Meta Data with Base64-encoded Values

$ parquet-tools meta --base64 testdata/good.parquet
{"NumRowGroups":1,"RowGroups":[{"NumRows":3,"TotalByteSize":438,"Columns":[{"PathInSchema":["Shoe_brand"],"Type":"BYTE_ARRAY","Encodings":["RLE","BIT_PACKED","PLAIN"],"CompressedSize":269,"UncompressedSize":194,"NumValues":3,"NullCount":0,"MaxValue":"c3RlcGhfY3Vycnk=","MinValue":"ZmlsYQ==","CompressionCodec":"GZIP"},{"PathInSchema":["Shoe_name"],"Type":"BYTE_ARRAY","Encodings":["RLE","BIT_PACKED","PLAIN"],"CompressedSize":319,"UncompressedSize":244,"NumValues":3,"NullCount":0,"MaxValue":"Z3JhbnRfaGlsbF8y","MinValue":"YWlyX2dyaWZmZXk=","CompressionCodec":"GZIP"}]}]}

Note that MinValue, MaxValue and NullCount are optional, if they do not show up in output then it means parquet file does not have that section.

row-count Command

row-count command provides total number of rows in the parquet file:

Show Number of Rows

$ parquet-tools row-count testdata/good.parquet
4

schema Command

schema command shows schema of the parquet file in different formats.

JSON Format

JSON format schema can be used directly in parquet-go based golang program like this example:

$ parquet-tools schema testdata/good.parquet
{"Tag":"name=Parquet_go_root, type=STRUCT, repetitiontype=REQUIRED","Fields":[{"Tag":"name=Shoe_brand, type=BYTE_ARRAY, convertedtype=UTF8, repetitiontype=REQUIRED"},{"Tag":"name=Shoe_name, type=BYTE_ARRAY, convertedtype=UTF8, repetitiontype=REQUIRED"}]}

Raw Format

Raw format is the schema directly dumped from parquet file, all other formats are derived from raw format.

$ parquet-tools schema --format raw testdata/good.parquet
{"repetition_type":"REQUIRED","name":"Parquet_go_root","num_children":2,"children":[{"type":"BYTE_ARRAY","type_length":0,"repetition_type":"REQUIRED","name":"Shoe_brand","converted_type":"UTF8","scale":0,"precision":0,"field_id":0,"logicalType":{"STRING":{}}},{"type":"BYTE_ARRAY","type_length":0,"repetition_type":"REQUIRED","name":"Shoe_name","converted_type":"UTF8","scale":0,"precision":0,"field_id":0,"logicalType":{"STRING":{}}}]}

Go Struct Format

go struct format generate go struct definition snippet that can be used in go:

$ parquet-tools schema --format go testdata/good.parquet | gofmt
type Parquet_go_root struct {
	Shoe_brand string `parquet:"name=Shoe_brand, type=BYTE_ARRAY, convertedtype=UTF8"`
	Shoe_name  string `parquet:"name=Shoe_name, type=BYTE_ARRAY, convertedtype=UTF8"`
}

based on your use case, type Parquet_go_root may need to be renamed.

parquet-go does not support composite type as map key or value in go struct tag as for now so parquet-tools will report error if there is such a field, you can still output in raw or JSON format:

$ parquet-tools schema -f go testdata/map-composite-value.parquet
parquet-tools: error: go struct does not support composite type as map value in field [Parquet_go_root.Scores]
