    Resolution: Invalid

> [Rust] [DataFusion] Add optional rust features for functions in library to 
> keep dependencies down

>                 Key: ARROW-11214
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11214
>             Project: Apache Arrow
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Rust - DataFusion
>            Reporter: Andrew Lamb
>            Priority: Major
>
> As we expand the numbers of functions available in DataFusion, DataFusion 
> will likely pick up additional third-party dependencies. In general, I think 
> it would be a nice feature for DataFusion to  allow users more fine grained 
> control over the features that they wanted to use (and pay the subsequently 
> higher compilation / link time (and binary size) cost. At the moment, with a 
> single codebase and no feature flags, everyone's compile time and binary size 
> will increase even if they don't use a specific set of features. 
> It seems to me like we might want to start offering a way to keep the number 
> of required dependencies of DataFusion down. For example, in the case of 
> https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/9139, we could potentially put the use 
> of crypto functions behind a feature flag. Users of DataFusion could then 
> pick a subset of features  like "core" and "func-datetime" and "func-crypto" 
> to have more control over the dependencies they pulled in
