Cookbooks are a collection of recipes about common tasks that Arrow users might want to do. The cookbook is actually composed of multiple cookbooks, one for each supported platform, which contain the recipes for that specific platform.
The cookbook aims to provide immediate instructions for common tasks, in
contrast with the Arrow User Guides <https://arrow.apache.org/docs/index.html>
which provides in-depth explanation. In terms of the Diátaxis framework <https://diataxis.fr/>, the cookbook is task-oriented while the user guide
is learning-oriented. The cookbook will often refer to the user guide for
deeper explanation.
All cookbooks are buildable to HTML and verifiable by running a set of tests that confirm that the recipes are still working as expected.
Each cookbook is implemented using platform specific tools. For this reason a Makefile is provided which abstracts platform specific concerns and makes it possible to build/test all cookbooks without any platform specific knowledge (as long as dependencies are available on the target system).
See https://arrow.apache.org/cookbook/ for the latest published version using the latest stable version of Apache Arrow. See https://arrow.apache.org/cookbook/dev for the latest published version using the development version of Apache Arrow. Please note that the development version of the cookbook will be out of date while we work to rebuild some of our nightly build infrastructure.
make all
make test
make help
Refer to make help to learn the
commands that build or test the cookbook for the platform you
are targeting.
Both the R and Python cookbooks will try to install the dependencies they need (including latests pyarrow/arrow-R version). This means that as far as you have a working Python/R environment able to install dependencies through the respective package manager you shouldn't need to install anything manually.
