----------------------------
Summary: [Python] Table.from_struct_array function
Key: ARROW-18330
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-18330
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Python
Affects Versions: 10.0.0
Reporter: &res
Following up on this stack overflow question:
[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74430949/table-from-nested-list-struct]
Would it be worth introducing a Table.from_struct_array function?
I'm actually not 100% sure it is needed or if it make sense.
For example, I'm not sure how it should behave when receiving a ChunkedArray
(of type StructType) vs receiving a StructArray. In which case it's behaviour
feels a bit overloaded and maybe it belongs to the `compute` package.
Also it's already possible to do such a thing (as illustrated in the SO
question). Maybe it's more a problem of documentation. An example like this
could be added to the cookbook.
