pyfloe 0.1.1

Zero-dependency lazy dataframe. Lo-fi data processing for Python.

pyfloe

Zero-dependency, lazy dataframes for Python.

pyfloe is a pure-Python dataframe library with lazy evaluation, query optimization, and type safety — no external dependencies required.

from pyfloe import LazyFrame, read_csv, col, row_number

result = (
    read_csv("orders.csv")
    .filter(col("amount") > 100)
    .with_column("rank", row_number()
        .over(partition_by="region", order_by="amount"))
    .select("order_id", "region", "amount", "rank")
    .sort("region", "rank")
    .collect()
)

Installation

pip install pyfloe

Key features

• Lazy evaluation — operations build a query plan; data flows only when you collect
• Expression API — composable column expressions with arithmetic, comparisons, string methods, and conditionals
• Window functions — row_number, rank, dense_rank, cumsum, lag, lead, and more
• Datetime handling — auto-detection from CSV, .dt accessor for extraction, truncation, and arithmetic
• Streaming I/O — read and write CSV, TSV, JSONL, JSON, and fixed-width files with constant memory
• Query optimizer — filter pushdown and column pruning
• Type safety — TypedDict validation and TypedLazyFrame for IDE-friendly typed results
