New DataFrame from NDJSON

Description

Read a file from path into a polars DataFrame.

Usage

pl_read_ndjson(
  source,
  ...,
  infer_schema_length = 100,
  batch_size = NULL,
  n_rows = NULL,
  low_memory = FALSE,
  rechunk = FALSE,
  row_index_name = NULL,
  row_index_offset = 0,
  ignore_errors = FALSE
)

Arguments

`source`	Path to a file or URL. It is possible to provide multiple paths provided that all NDJSON files have the same schema. It is not possible to provide several URLs.
`…`	Ignored.
`infer_schema_length`	Maximum number of rows to read to infer the column types. If set to 0, all columns will be read as UTF-8. If `NULL`, a full table scan will be done (slow).
`batch_size`	Number of rows that will be processed per thread.
`n_rows`	Maximum number of rows to read.
`low_memory`	Reduce memory usage (will yield a lower performance).
`rechunk`	Reallocate to contiguous memory when all chunks / files are parsed.
`row_index_name`	If not `NULL`, this will insert a row index column with the given name into the DataFrame.
`row_index_offset`	Offset to start the row index column (only used if the name is set).
`ignore_errors`	Keep reading the file even if some lines yield errors. You can also use `infer_schema_length = 0` to read all columns as UTF8 to check which values might cause an issue.

Value

A DataFrame

Examples

library("polars")

if (require("jsonlite", quietly = TRUE)) {
  ndjson_filename = tempfile()
  jsonlite::stream_out(iris, file(ndjson_filename), verbose = FALSE)
  pl$read_ndjson(ndjson_filename)
}
