Description
While round tripping dictionary-encoded arrays in dictionary-encoded parquet files in arrow2, I have been unable to have pyarrow read all values from the dictionary page. This contrasts with (py)spark, that can read them.
Attached to this issue is a parquet file generated from rust's arrow2 whereby I read the IPC "generated_dictionary" file and write it into parquet (v1) with dictionary-encoding. I.e. 2 pages, one with the values, the other with the indices.
The expected result for the column 0, "dict0" is
import pyarrow path = "generated_dictionary" golden_path = f"../testing/arrow-testing/data/arrow-ipc-stream/integration/1.0.0-littleendian/{path}.arrow_file" column = ("dict0", 0) table = pyarrow.ipc.RecordBatchFileReader(golden_path).read_all() expected = next(c for i, c in enumerate(expected) if i == column[1]) expected = expected.combine_chunks().tolist() print(expected) # ['nwg€6d€', None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, 'e£a5µ矢a', None, None, 'rpc£µ£3', None, None, None, None] # read with pyspark spark = pyspark.sql.SparkSession.builder.config( # see https://stackoverflow.com/a/62024670/931303 "spark.sql.parquet.enableVectorizedReader", "false", ).getOrCreate() df = spark.read.parquet(f"{golden_path}.parquet") r = df.select(column[0]).collect() result = [r[column[0]] for r in r] assert expected == result
However, I have been unable to correctly read it from pyarrow. The result I get:
table = pq.read_table(f"{path}.parquet") result = table[0] print(result.combine_chunks().dictionary) print(result.combine_chunks().indices) [ "2lf4µµr", "", "nwg€6d€", "rpc£µ£3", "e£a5µ矢a" ] [ 2, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, null, 8, null, null, 4, null, null, null, null ]
which is incorrect as the largest index (8) is larger than the len (5) of the values.
The indices are being read correctly, but not all values are. For clarity, the buffer in the dictionary page (PLAIN-encoded as per spec) on the attached parquet is:
# ["2lf4µµr", "", "nwg€6d€", "", "rpc£µ£3", "", "", "", "e£a5µ矢a", ""]
[
9, 0, 0, 0, 50, 108, 102, 52, 194, 181, 194, 181, 114,
0, 0, 0, 0,
11, 0, 0, 0, 110, 119, 103, 226, 130, 172, 54, 100, 226, 130, 172,
0, 0, 0, 0,
10, 0, 0, 0, 114, 112, 99, 194, 163, 194, 181, 194, 163, 51,
0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0,
11, 0, 0, 0, 101, 194, 163, 97, 53, 194, 181, 231, 159, 162, 97,
0, 0, 0, 0
]
and the reported number of values in the dict page header is 10. I would expect all values to be read directly to the dictionary.
We cannot discard the possibility that I am doing something wrong in writing. So far I was able to round-trip these within arrow2 and can read dict-encoded from both pyarrow and pyspark, which suggests that the arrow2 reader is correct.
