pdames opened a new issue, #123: URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/issues/123
### Apache Iceberg version main (development) ### Please describe the bug 🐞 **Reproduction Steps** 1. Load a catalog named `test_catalog`. 2. Create a table named `test_namespace.test_table` table inside of it. 3. Provide the following variations of this table's identifier to `catalog.load_table`, and ensure that the 3rd variation using `table.identifier` fails due to inclusion of the catalog's name (`test_catalog`) @ `table.identifier[0]`: ```python table = catalog.load_table("test_namespace.test_table") # string identifier works... table = catalog.load_table(("test_namespace", "test_table")) # tuple identifier also works... catalog.load_table(table.identifier) # pyiceberg.exceptions.NoSuchTableError: NoSuchTableException: Table does not exist: test_catalog.test_namespace.test_table ``` A more interesting question that I'd like to open for discussion as part of this issue is the best way to fix these issue. For example, we could argue that the bug lies with `catalog.load_table()` for not handling the catalog name as part of the identifier, or in table.identifier for including the catalog name as part of the identifier. As a workaround in my code for now, I've `catalog.load_table()` that scrubs any catalog names from the identifier before **Environment Info** Iceberg REST Catalog running in the `tabulario/iceberg-rest` Docker container w/ a mock S3 Filesystem: ```python def catalog_properties() -> Dict[str, str]: return { "type": "rest", "uri": "http://localhost:8181", "s3.endpoint": "http://localhost:9000", "s3.access-key-id": "admin", "s3.secret-access-key": "password", } load_catalog(name="test_catalog", **catalog_properties()) ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
