   Hey! The regex was just an example, it's not part of the API though - the 
partition deduction function is.
   
   The issue I am having at a works is that our pipelines keep writing 
hive-partitioned parquet files to s3 and we have 100s of tables and many I 
don't maintain. However we need a quick conversion (and upkeep) of those tables 
to iceberg.
   
   add_files is almost what we need for both initial migration and the 
subsequent upkeep however it assumes the partition columns are written in the 
parquet files - which isn't the case. We don't want to rewrite all parquet 
files nor touch pipelines at all, we just need a quick hassle-free inplace 
migration. 
   
   If you add another API that deals with DataFile directly as opposed to 
add_files that assumes certain things that'd work for us. Until then I might 
just have to deploy my fork to solve our problem.
