Hi @ar-puuk, thanks for the feature request! There are no Arrow C++ options
we could map this to, though I will add the C++ label to this and consider it a
feature request for that library.
As a workaround, would it work to use `stringr::str_trim()` on your data
after you've read it in?
``` r
library(arrow)
library(dplyr)
tf <- tempfile()
con <- file(tf)
writeLines("x,y\n value1, value2 ", con)
close(con)
# the whitespace remains
read_csv_arrow(tf)
#> # A tibble: 1 × 2
#> x y
#> <chr> <chr>
#> 1 " value1" " value2 "
# whitespace is gone
read_csv_arrow(tf) |>
mutate(across(c(x, y), stringr::str_trim))
#> # A tibble: 1 × 2
#> x y
#> <chr> <chr>
#> 1 value1 value2
```
