substrait 0.6.0

A python package for Substrait.

Substrait

A Python package for Substrait, the cross-language specification for data compute operations.

Installation

You can install the Python substrait bindings from PyPI or conda-forge

pip install substrait

conda install -c conda-forge python-substrait  # or use mamba

Goals

This project aims to provide a Python interface for the Substrait specification. It will allow users to construct and manipulate a Substrait Plan from Python for evaluation by a Substrait consumer, such as DataFusion or DuckDB.

Non-goals

This project is not an execution engine for Substrait Plans.

Status

This is an experimental package that is still under development.

Example

At the moment, this project contains only generated Python classes for the Substrait protobuf messages. Let's use an existing Substrait producer, Ibis, to provide an example using Python Substrait as the consumer.

Produce a Substrait Plan with Ibis

In [1]: import ibis

In [2]: movie_ratings = ibis.table(
   ...:     [
   ...:         ("tconst", "str"),
   ...:         ("averageRating", "str"),
   ...:         ("numVotes", "str"),
   ...:     ],
   ...:     name="ratings",
   ...: )
   ...:

In [3]: query = movie_ratings.select(
   ...:     movie_ratings.tconst,
   ...:     avg_rating=movie_ratings.averageRating.cast("float"),
   ...:     num_votes=movie_ratings.numVotes.cast("int"),
   ...: )

In [4]: from ibis_substrait.compiler.core import SubstraitCompiler

In [5]: compiler = SubstraitCompiler()

In [6]: protobuf_msg = compiler.compile(query).SerializeToString()

In [7]: type(protobuf_msg)
Out[7]: bytes

Consume the Substrait Plan using Python Substrait

In [8]: import substrait

In [9]: from substrait.gen.proto.plan_pb2 import Plan

In [10]: my_plan = Plan()

In [11]: my_plan.ParseFromString(protobuf_msg)
Out[11]: 186

In [12]: print(my_plan)
