> Key: ARROW-13763

> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Parquet, Python
> Affects Versions: 5.0.0

> Reporter: Richard Kimoto
> Assignee: Alessandro Molina
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 8.0.0

>
> It appears that files opened for read using pyarrow.parquet.read_table (and
> therefore pyarrow.parquet.ParquetDataset) are not explicitly closed.
> This seems to be the case for both use_legacy_dataset=True and False. The
> files don't remain open at the os level (verified using lsof). They do
> however seem to rely on the python gc to close.
> My use case is that i'd like to use a custom fsspec filesystem that
> interfaces to an s3 like API. It handles the remote download of the parquet
> file and passes to pyarrow a handle of a temporary file downloaded locally.
> It then is looking for an explicit close() or __exit__() to then clean up the
> temp file.
