Arrow-based artifact handlers for Lazyscribe

Arrow-based artifact handling for lazyscribe

lazyscribe-arrow is a lightweight package that adds the following artifact handlers for lazyscribe:

• csv, and
• parquet.

Any data structure that implements the Arrow PyCapsule Interface will be compatible with the handlers in this library. Popular compatible open source data structures include

• pandas.DataFrame
• polars.DataFrame
• polars.LazyFrame

This library also adds interchange methods to construct a pyarrow.Table from lazyscribe.Project and lazyscribe.Repository objects.

Installation

Python 3.10 and above is required. use pip to install:

$ python -m pip install lazyscribe-arrow

Usage

Artifact handlers

To use this library, simply log an artifact to a lazyscribe experiment or repository with

• handler="csv" for a CSV output

import pyarrow as pa
from lazyscribe import Project

project = Project("project.json", mode="w")
with project.log("My experiment") as exp:
    data = pa.Table.from_arrays([[0, 1, 2]], names=["a"])
    exp.log_artifact(name="data", value=data, handler="csv")

project.save()

Interchange

To convert your lazyscribe.Project to a pyarrow.Table object, call lazyscribe_arrow.interchange.to_table:

import pyarrow as pa
from lazyscribe import Project
from lazyscribe_arrow.interchange import to_table

project = Project("project.json", mode="w")
with project.log("My experiment") as exp:
    data = pa.Table.from_arrays([[0, 1, 2]], names=["a"])
    exp.log_artifact(name="data", value=data, handler="csv")

table = to_table(project)

The same function works for lazyscribe.Repository objects.

import pyarrow as pa
from lazyscribe import Repository
from lazyscribe_arrow.interchange import to_table

repo = Repository("repository.json", mode="w")

data = pa.Table.from_arrays([[0, 1, 2]], names=["a"])
repo.log_artifact(name="data", value=data, handler="csv")

table = to_table(repo)
