Rationale for this change
The behavior of
ParquetMetaDataReader
when requesting page indexes differs between synchronous and asynchronous implementations. For historical reasons, the synchronous methods currently return empty vectors for theColumnIndex
andOffsetIndex
when page indexes are requested but not present in the file. The asynchronous methods instead returnNone
in that case.What changes are included in this PR?
This PR changes the behavior of
ParquetMetaDataReader
to always returnNone
when page indexes are requested but not present. It also changes the behavior and signatures of the legacy functionsread_columns_indexes
andread_offset_indexes
. These will now return optional vectors set toNone
rather than empty vectors when page indexes are not present.Are there any user-facing changes?
Yes, as noted above.
