Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-2281:
-------------------------------------
If we can avoid exposing the extra data structure, that might be best.
> [Python] Expose MakeArray to construct arrays from buffers
> ----------------------------------------------------------

> Key: ARROW-2281
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-2281
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Python
> Reporter: Uwe L. Korn
> Assignee: Uwe L. Korn
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 0.10.0
>
>
> To create new arrays from existing buffers in Python, we would need to call
> into the C++ {{MakeArray}} method. This would then construct the Array and we
> would only wrap it in Python to have construction support for all Array types.
> This would also mean that we need to have a Python representation of
> {{ArrayData}}
