ASF GitHub Bot commented on ARROW-1782:
---------------------------------------
wesm opened a new pull request #1345: ARROW-1782: [Python] Add
pyarrow.compress, decompress APIs
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/1345
This enables bytes, Buffer, or buffer-like objects to be compressed either
to PyBytes or `pyarrow.Buffer`. Wanted some feedback on the API (argument
names, etc.). The compression API in Arrow in general requires knowing the size
of the decompressed data, but some compressors (like Snappy) are able to tell
you how big the result will be based only on the input buffer
