URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/issues/1113


   **Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe 
what you are trying to do.**
   We (me and @kou ) want to implement Ruby bindings for DataFusion.
   To do so, we think that exporting the C API could be the way to go, and it 
could allow other bindings (apache/arrow-datafusion#1108).
   
   A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always 
frustrated when [...] 
   (This section helps Arrow developers understand the context and *why* for 
this feature, in addition to  the *what*)
   
   **Describe the solution you'd like**
   Rust has a FFI that allow exposing a C API 
(https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/ffi.html#calling-rust-code-from-c). We think 
that it could be used to export DataFusion thought it, and, after that, create 
the Ruby bindings GObject introspection, the same way that Red Arrows does.
   
   **Describe alternatives you've considered**
   [Rutie](https://github.com/danielpclark/rutie) seems simpler, but exposing 
the C API could be much more beneficial to allow other language bindings.
