In the R package will you please export make_readable_file() ?
We want to interact with Feather files in our R package and are using arrow::FeatherReader$create(), which requires as input an Arrow file connection object. We thought we would follow the lead in read_feather() and use make_readable_file() like
f <- function(file) {
file <- make_readable_file(file)
on.exit(file$close())
reader <- FeatherReader$create(file)
# do stuff ...
}
but make_readable_file is not exported by arrow, so this approach might not satisfy CRAN requirements.
Can you export make_readable_file? Or is there some other preferred way to go from a .feather file to the required inputstream for FeatherReader$create?
