Feature Request: hex viewer #6

Closed rppein closed 10 months ago

rppein commented 4 years ago

I need to inspect a couple of parquet datasets containing binary data. So far, the viewer doesn't seem to have an integrated hex viewer or at least a way to export the binary fields into a plain file.

@rrpein, thanks for update. Could you please show us where can we download parquet datasets that containing binary data, it will be great if we can reproduce the issue from our side.

As a workaround in the meantime, try using Python to export the binary data from Parquet form into something else that is viewable. And supplying some binary data here would be useful so a longer term solution could be provided. Thank you.

Sorry, but I didn't get permission to forward the sample files.

Eugene-Mark commented 3 years ago

@rppein Could you pls provide the link to download the sample files.

Close it since it's over years, will reopen it if the feature is in the roadmap.
