Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-1120:
-------------------------------------
Support for writing deprecated int96 timestamps landed in parquet-cpp today
(thanks Colin and Uwe!)
https://github.com/apache/parquet-cpp/commit/e998dfb40403197dbb8efa53d077449c81552d26,
so we should be able to thread this option through to the Python API without
_too_ much work. I will take a look hopefully soon
> [Python] Write support for int96

> Hi there,
> I am trying to use pyarrow to convert CSV files to Parquet for use with
> Redshift Spectrum. I've got everything sorted... almost :)
> Unfortunately, the only format they accept for timestamp columns is int96. I
> understand that int96 timestamps are unofficial/deprecated, but unfortunately
> it's what I am stuck with for integrating with, at least for the moment. I
> contacted Amazon support and 64-bit timestamp support has been added to the
> list of feature requests, but it's unclear when it will be
> prioritized/added/released.
> In the meantime, I am thinking of adding write support for int96 columns to
> arrow. Would that be a welcome addition?
> Thanks,
> Colin
