pandas-uuid 0.1

Pandas ExtensionArray / ExtensionDType for UUIDs.

Use UuidDtype as a pandas extension dtype:

>>> from uuid import uuid4
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from pandas_uuid import UuidDtype
>>>
>>> s = pd.Series([uuid4()], dtype=UuidDtype())
>>> s
0    cd072cd8-be6f-4f62-ac4c-09c28206e7e3
dtype: uuid

Use specific storage types by importing UuidArray / ArrowUuidArray, or by using the storage parameter of UuidDtype:

>>> cls = UuidDtype("numpy").construct_array_type()
>>> cls
<class 'pandas_uuid.UuidArray'>
>>> cls.random(2, rng=42)
<UuidArray>

Length: 2, dtype: uuid

Note

There is probably no good reason to ever set rng to a static seed apart from testing.
