Deltalake2DB

This is a simple project that uses Metadata from deltalake package to provide methods to read Delta Lake Tables to either Polars or DuckDB with better Protocol Support as the main deltalake package.

Use with Duckdb

Install deltalake2db and duckdb using pip/poetry/whatever you use.

Then you can do like this:

from deltalake2db import get_sql_for_delta,

with duckdb.connect() as con:
    dt = DeltaTable("tests/data/faker2")
    sql = get_sql_for_delta(dt, duck_con=con) # get select statement
    print(sql)
    duckdb_create_view_for_delta(con, dt, "delta_table") # or let it create a view for you. will point to the data at this point in time

    con.execute("select * from delta_table").fetch_all()

If you'd like to manipulate you can use get_sql_for_delta_expr which returns a SqlGlot Object

Use with Polars

Install deltalake2db and polars>=1.12 using pip/poetry/whatever you use.

dt = DeltaTable("tests/data/faker2")
from deltalake2db import polars_scan_delta
lazy_df = polars_scan_delta(dt)
df = lazy_df.collect()

Protocol Support

  • Column Mapping
  • Almost Data Types, including Structs/Lists, Map yet to be done
  • Test data types, including datetime
  • Deletion Vectors

In case there is an unsupported DeltaLake Feature, this will just throw DeltaProtocolError as does delta-rs

Cloud Support

For now, only az:// Url's for Azure are tested and supported in DuckDB. For polars it's a lot easier, since polars just uses object_store create, so it should just work.

The package does some work to make DuckDB's "Azure Storage Options" work in Polars, to be able to use the same options.

This means you can:

  • pass an absolute DuckDB-style Path to Polars, meaning something like abfss://⟨my_storage_account⟩.dfs.core.windows.net/⟨my_filesystem⟩/⟨path⟩
  • pass "chain" as option, which will act like DuckDB's Credential Chain. This requires azure-identity Package

Looking for something different? :)

We also have the following projects around deltalake:
