The static-table is considered read-only.
+## Write support
+
+With PyIceberg 0.6.0 write support is added through Arrow. Let's consider an
Arrow Table:
+
+```python
+import pyarrow as pa
+
+df = pa.Table.from_pylist(
+ [
+ {"city": "Amsterdam", "lat": 52.371807, "long": 4.896029},
+ {"city": "San Francisco", "lat": 37.773972, "long": -122.431297},
+ {"city": "Drachten", "lat": 53.11254, "long": 6.0989},
+ {"city": "Paris", "lat": 48.864716, "long": 2.349014},
+ ],
+)
+```
+
+Next, create a table based on the schema:
+
+```python
+from pyiceberg.catalog import load_catalog
+
+catalog = load_catalog("default")
+
+from pyiceberg.schema import Schema
+from pyiceberg.types import NestedField, StringType, DoubleType
+
+schema = Schema(
+ NestedField(1, "city", StringType(), required=False),
+ NestedField(2, "lat", DoubleType(), required=False),
+ NestedField(3, "long", DoubleType(), required=False),
Review Comment:
No, the default is the more strict `True`. I've set it to False because
PyArrow produces nullable fields by default
