Gabor Szadovszky commented on PARQUET-2020:
-------------------------------------------

[~Unsta], the module {{parquet-cli}} is meant to substitute the functionality 
of {{parquet-tools}}. {{parquet-cli}} might have the functionality you need. 
However, neither of them was designed to have its classes used publicly. (There 
are no guarantees the changes will be backward compatible.)
I don't think that {{parquet-format-structures}} would be a good fit to place 
such functionality either. This module is for reading/writing the footer and 
also not designed to be used by our clients. 
The question is if you need this json representation for production use or for 
debugging purposes. In case of the latter one we might want to create a new 
module inside parquet-mr for tools to be used from the java API. We might 
factor out some existing implementation from {{parquet-cli}} and maybe having 
back something from {{parquet-tools}} if required.
If however you need the reading to json (and maybe writing from it) for 
production use I would suggest having a new binding for json just like we have 
{{parquet-avro}}, {{parquet-protobuf}}, {{parquet-thrift}} etc.
Unfortunately, I won't have time to guide you with any of these choices. I 
would suggest bringing up this topic on [mailto:[email protected]] to have 
broader audience.
