Show HN: Parqv – Interactive TUI Parquet Visualizer
- apetrov 1y agonot sure why it should be specific to parquet file. a thin UI wrapper around duckdb could do the trick but for majority of formats (pq, csv, json, sqlite, iceberg, deltalake)
- sanspareilsmyn 1y agoThanks for your idea. I first thought that simply viewing data might not be useful as many IDEs already handle basic data previews. One of core goals was to access stored metadata directly from the file without necessarily scanning the data. Your idea of potentially mixing current implementation (using pyarrow) with DuckDB is very interesting:)
- apetrov 1y agonote: with duckdb you get network storage for free (ie delta table on s3 works the same as local) and i guess a smaller deps than pyarrow (might be wrong)
- dammaj 1y agoI upvote this suggestion and add pickle and hd5 to the list.
- sanspareilsmyn 1y agoI would definitely add it to my roadmap
- AnonymousPlanet 1y agoDepending on the filetype, you might be better off with a dedicated table tool like VisiData https://www.visidata.org/docs/formats/ https://www.visidata.org/docs/formats/
