Description

Documentation declares that pyarrow can work in this way:

from pyarrow import fs
s3 = fs.S3FileSystem(region='eu-west-3')

Follow link to documentation: https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/filesystems.html#example

 

After installing pyarrow with this command:

pipenv install pyarrow==0.17.0

And when trying to run a simple python application: https://github.com/gumartinm/MLForFun/tree/master/playground

Application ends up with the following error:

AttributeError: module 'pyarrow.fs' has no attribute 'S3FileSystem'

 

This line is failing https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/apache-arrow-0.17.0/python/pyarrow/fs.py#L42 because pyarrow._s3fs does not exist.
