------------------------------------
I would like to give it a shot :)
> [Python] Add path/URI /+ filesystem handling to parquet.read_metadata
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-16719
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-16719
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Python
> Reporter: Joris Van den Bossche
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: good-first-issue
>
> Currently you can pass a local file path or file-like object, or a URI (eg
> "s3://...") or path+filesystem combo to {{parquet.read_table}}.
> But the {{parquet.read_metadata}} and {{parquet.read_schema}} methods (being
> a small wrapper around {{ParquetFile}} only accept the local file path or
> file-like object. I would propose to add the same path+filesystem handling to
> those functions as happens in {{read_table}} to make the capabilities of
> those consistent.
> (I ran into this in geopandas, where we use {{read_table}} to read the actual
> data, but also need {{read_metadata}} to inspect the actual Parquet
> FileMetaData for metadata)
