> [Python] A fsspec-compatible wrapper for pyarrow.fs filesystems
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-8780
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8780
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Python
> Reporter: Joris Van den Bossche
> Assignee: Joris Van den Bossche
> Priority: Major
> Labels: documentation, filesystem, pull-request-available
> Fix For: 6.0.0

> The new {{pyarrow.fs}} FileSystem objects have a limited Python API
> (currently mimicking the C++ API).
> In Python, [fsspec|https://filesystem-spec.readthedocs.io/en/latest] defines
> a common API for a variety filesystem implementations.
> We could try to implement a, fsspec-compatible class wrapping the
> {{pyarrow.fs}} native filesystems. Such as class would provide the methods
> expected according to fsspec, and implement those using the actual
> {{pyarrow.fs.FileSystem}} under the hood.
> This might be mainly useful for two use cases:
> - {{pyarrow.fs}} filesystems can be used in settings that expect an
> fsspec-compatible filesytem object
> - it provides a way to have a "richer" API around our {{pyarrow.fs}}
> filesystems (which has been requested before, cfr ARROW-7584), without
> expanding the core filesystem objects
