---------------------------------------------
Summary: [Python] Expose full cast options in the
pyarrow.compute.cast function
Key: ARROW-15365
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15365
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Python
Reporter: Joris Van den Bossche
Currently, the {{pc.cast}} function has a {{safe=True/False}} option, which
provides a short-cut to setting the cast options.
But the actual kernel has more detailed options that can be tuned, and this is
already exposed in the CastOptions class in python (allow_int_overflow,
allow_time_truncate, ...). So we should ensure that we can pass such a
CastOptions object to the {{cast}} kernel directly as well.
