dtypeflow
dtypeflow is a terminal UI to convert a CSV file to Parquet.
Point it at a CSV file, and for each column it infers the tightest-fitting
dtype (Boolean, unsigned/signed integers UInt8…UInt64/Int8…Int64,
floats Float16/Float32/Float64, String, or Dictionary), shows the
observed statistics, and lets you review or override the choice before
writing the result to Parquet — all locally, no data leaves your machine.
Installation
uv tool install dtypeflow
Or with pipx:
pipx install dtypeflow
Or with pip:
pip install dtypeflow
Usage
Launch the picker and choose a CSV file interactively:
dtypeflow
Or pass a path directly to skip straight to configuring column types:
dtypeflow path/to/data.csv
The workflow has three steps:
- Pick a file — enter or browse for a CSV path.
- Configure types — for each column, review the recommended dtype, its stats (unique values, samples, range/precision/scale), and pick from compatible alternatives grouped by safety (Safe / Too small / Discouraged).
- Export — write the configured dataset to a Parquet file.
