Yosuke Shiro reassigned ARROW-7625:
-----------------------------------

    Assignee: Yosuke Shiro  (was: Kouhei Sutou)

> [GLib] Parquet GLib and Red Parquet (Ruby) do not allow specifying 
> compression type
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: ARROW-7625
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-7625
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: GLib
>         Environment: red-arrow 0.15.1
> red-parquet 0.15.1
> libarrow 0.15.1
> libparquet 0.15.1

> It seems that the ArrowFileWriter being used by parquet-glib just uses the 
> default writer properties 
> ([https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/c_glib/parquet-glib/arrow-file-writer.cpp#L184),]
>  and does not offer the user the ability to override this. As a consumer of 
> the GLib API in Ruby (red-parquet), I therefore have no way of compressing 
> Parquet columns. Of course, I can compress the entire file by doing something 
> like {{t.save('...', format: 'parquet', compression: 'GZIP')}}, but this is 
> not compatible with most tools and isn't the correct way of compressing a 
> Parquet file.
