These functions permit using a feather dataset much like a regular (read-only) data frame without reading everything into R.

Usage

feather(path)

feather_metadata(path)

Arguments

An arrow::Table

Details

They work by using arrow::read_feather() to read the data in as an Arrow Table, an efficient data structure that supports many data-frame methods. See the Arrow package documentation for more information.
