Antoine Pitrou commented on ARROW-4283:
---------------------------------------
There are two cases here:
* RecordBatchStreamReader: this is too high-level; you need to read from your
data source in Python (using `await something.read()`) then construct a record
batch out of the data (perhaps with a BufferReader)
* RecordBatchStreamWriter: conversely, you probably want to write your record
batch first into a BufferOutputStream, then write the resulting data in Python
(using `await something.write()`)
> Should RecordBatchStreamReader/Writer be AsyncIteraable?

> Filing this issue after a discussion today with [~xhochy] about how to
> implement streaming pyarrow http services. I had attempted to use both Flask
> and [aiohttp|https://aiohttp.readthedocs.io/en/stable/streams.html]'s
> streaming interfaces because they seemed familiar, but no dice. I have no
> idea how hard this would be to add -- supporting all the asynciterable
> primitives in JS was non-trivial.
