Tom Augspurger created ARROW-7102:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Make filesystem wrappers compatible with fsspec
Key: ARROW-7102
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7102
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Python
Reporter: Tom Augspurger
[fsspec|fsspec: https://filesystem-spec.readthedocs.io/en/latest/] defines a
common API for a variety filesystem implementations. I'm proposing a
FSSpecWrapper, similar to S3FSWrapper, that works with any fsspec
implementation.
Right now, pyarrow has a pyarrow.filesystems.S3FSWrapper, which is specific to
s3fs.
[https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/21ad7ac1162eab188a1e15923fb1de5b795337ec/python/pyarrow/filesystem.py#L320].
This implementation could be removed entirely once an FSSPecWrapper is done,
or kept as an alias if it's part of the public API.
This is realted to ARROW-3717, which requested a GCSFSWrapper for working with
google cloud storage.
