从命令行检查 Parquet

如何从命令行检查 Parquet 文件的内容?

我现在唯一的选择就是

$ hadoop fs -get my-path local-file
$ parquet-tools head local-file | less

我愿意

  1. 避免创建 local-file
  2. 将文件内容视为 json,而不是 parquet-tools打印的无类型文本。

有简单的办法吗?

I recommend just building and running the parquet-tools.jar for your Hadoop distribution.

Checkout the github project: https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr/tree/master/parquet-tools

hadoop jar ./parquet-tools-<VERSION>.jar <command>.

By default parquet-tools in general will look for the local file directory, so to point it to hdfs, we need to add hdfs:// in the beginning of the file path. So in your case, you can do something like this

parquet-tools head hdfs://localhost/<hdfs-path> | less

I had the same issue and it worked fine for me. There is no need to download the file locally first.

You can use parquet-tools with the command cat and the --json option in order to view the files without a local copy and in the JSON format.

Here is an example:

parquet-tools cat --json hdfs://localhost/tmp/save/part-r-00000-6a3ccfae-5eb9-4a88-8ce8-b11b2644d5de.gz.parquet

This prints out the data in JSON format:

{"name":"gil","age":48,"city":"london"}
{"name":"jane","age":30,"city":"new york"}
{"name":"jordan","age":18,"city":"toronto"}

Disclaimer: this was tested in Cloudera CDH 5.12.0

I'd rather use hdfs NFS Gateway + autofs for easy hdfs file investigation.

My setup:

  • HDFS NFS Gateway service running on namenode.
  • distribution bundled autofs service on. with following configuration change made to auto.master
/net    -hosts nobind

I can easily run following command to investigate any hdfs file

head /net/<namenodeIP>/path/to/hdfs/file
parquet-tools head /net/<namenodeIP>/path/to/hdfs/par-file
rsync -rv /local/directory/ /net/<namenodeIP>/path/to/hdfs/parentdir/

forget about the hadoop* hdfs* command ;)

Install homebrew on your Mac (see https://brew.sh/) and then just:

brew install parquet-tools

Once you have done that you can user parquet-tools binary (which should now be in your path) at your command line for various commands.

parquet-tools or parquet-tools -h will give you usage info.

Examples:

If you're using HDFS, the following commands are very useful as they are frequently used (left here for future reference):

hadoop jar parquet-tools-1.9.0.jar schema hdfs://path/to/file.snappy.parquet
hadoop jar parquet-tools-1.9.0.jar head -n5 hdfs://path/to/file.snappy.parquet

I've found this program really useful: https://github.com/chhantyal/parquet-cli

Lets you view parquet files without having the whole infrastructure installed.

Just type:

pip install parquet-cli
parq input.parquet --head 10

On Windows 10 x64 I ended up building parquet-reader just now from source:

Windows 10 + WSL + GCC

Installed WSL with Ubuntu LTS 18.04. Upgraded gcc to v9.2.1 and CMake to latest. Bonus: install Windows Terminal.

git checkout https://github.com/apache/arrow
cd arrow
cd cpp
mkdir buildgcc
cd buildgcc
cmake .. -DPARQUET_BUILD_EXECUTABLES=ON -DARROW_PARQUET=ON -DARROW_WITH_SNAPPY=ON -DARROW_WITH_BROTLI=ON -DPARQUET_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DARROW_CSV=ON
make -j 20
cd release
./parquet-reader
Usage: parquet-reader [--only-metadata] [--no-memory-map] [--json] [--dump] [--print-key-value-metadata] [--columns=...] <file>

If it has trouble building, may have to use vcpkg for the missing libraries.

Also see a another solution that offers less, but in a simpler way: https://github.com/chhantyal/parquet-cli

Linked from: How can I write streaming/row-oriented data using parquet-cpp without buffering?

Initially tried brew install parquet-tools, but this did not appear to work under my install of WSL

Windows 10 + MSVC

Same as above. Use CMake to generate the Visual Studio 2019 project, then build.

git checkout https://github.com/apache/arrow
cd arrow
cd cpp
mkdir buildmsvc
cd buildmsvc
cmake .. -DPARQUET_BUILD_EXECUTABLES=ON -DARROW_PARQUET=ON -DARROW_WITH_SNAPPY=ON -DARROW_WITH_BROTLI=ON -DPARQUET_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DARROW_CSV=ON
# Then open the generated .sln file in MSVC and build. Everything should build perfectly.

Troubleshooting:

In case there was any missing libraries, I pointed it at my install of vcpkg. I ran vcpkg integrate install, then copied the to the end of the CMake line:

-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=[...path...]/vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems

If it had complained about any missing libraries, I would have installed these, e.g. boost, etc using commands like vcpkg install boost:x64.

On Windows 10 x64, try Parq:

choco install parq

This installs everything into the current directory. You will have to add this directory manually to the path, or run parq.exe from within this directory.

My other answer builds parquet-reader from source. This utility looks like it does much the same job.

Actually, I find out that pandas has already supported parquet files, as long as you've installed pyarrow or fastparquet as its backend. Check out read_parquet:

import pandas as pd


df = pd.read_parquet('your-file.parquet')


df.head(10)
...

Previous answer: Might be late for the party, but I just learnt that pyarrow supports reading parquet already, and it's quite powerful. Chances are that you already have pyarrow and pandas installed, so you can read parquet just like this

from pyarrow import parquet
import pandas


p = parquet.read_table('/path/to/your/xxxxx.parquet')
df = p.to_pandas()


df.head(10)
...

If you use Docker you can also do something like this:

docker run -ti -v C:\file.parquet:/tmp/file.parquet nathanhowell/parquet-tools cat /tmp/file.parquet

In case anyone else comes to this looking for an easy way to inspect a parquet file from the command line, I wrote the tool clidb to do this.

It doesn’t generate json like the OP wanted but instead shows the parquet data as a table and allows SQL snippets to be run against it. It should work with:

pip install "clidb[extras]"
clidb path/with/data

DuckDB has CLI tool (prebuilt binaries for linux, windows, macOS) that can be used to query parquet data from command line.

PS C:\Users\nsuser\dev\standalone_executable_binaries> ./duckdb
v0.5.1 7c111322d
Enter ".help" for usage hints.
Connected to a transient in-memory database.
Use ".open FILENAME" to reopen on a persistent database.
