how to use the tool to view parquet files #259

Closed cstmgl closed 3 years ago

Hi all, I found this tool in the vscode market place when I search for parquet. I checked the readme but I still don't understand how can I view a parquet file. Is there any instructions I can follow? This is what I see when I open a parquet file:

image I would like obviously to see the content of the file, maybe as a json or any other kind of way but I fail to achieve that. My file is not so big but I see that I get this in the bottom for a long time: image

I really just don't know how to use this tool, sorry if my question is very obvious
