asfimport opened a new issue, #22011:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/22011
I have JSON data where the columnar (line-delimited) part is in a `data`
subkey:
```java
{
"metadata": {"name": "block1"},
"data" : [
{"a": 1, "b": 2.0, "c": "foo", "d": false},
{"a": 4, "b": -5.5, "c": null, "d": true}
]
}
```
It would be good if the arrow JSON parser could allow specifying where the
columnar data is stored.
Since the `metadata` is also important to me it would be even better if the
rest of the JSON could be returned as a Python dict with the only the specified
keys parsed as arrow tables - e.g.
```java
>>> block1 = json.read_json(fn, tables=['data'])
>>> block1['data']
pyarrow.Table
a: int64
b: double
c: string
d: bool
>>> block1['metadata']
{'name': 'block1'}
>>> block1
{
"metadata": {"name": "block1"},
"data" : pyarrow.Table
}
```
