rfsspec 0.1.1

No project description provided

rfsspec

Rust python FSs

Implements s3, gcs, azure blob and HTTP backends for fsspec using Rust.

Respects concurrency of many simultaneous requests as made by fsspec, but

• does not need python asyncio,
• releases the GIL,
• can safely be called from multiple threads
• is probably NOT fork-safe

Limitations

Currently only the methods cat_ranges, cat and cat_file are supported, enough to open a (consolidated) zarr dataset for reading.

Implementations

The http backend supports:

• headers
• method
• ranges

The s3 implementation supports configuration by environment variables and .aws files, and options

• profile
• endpoint_url
• anon
• region
• ranges
• requester-pays

The GCS backend supports:

• anon
• ranges
• requester-pays
• assumes credentials via env variables and gcloud CLI

The Azure blob backend supports

• anon
• ranges
• account/key auth (account always required)

Installation
