Evaluate the query in streaming mode and write to an NDJSON file.
Warning
Streaming mode is considered unstable. It may be changed at any point without it being considered a breaking change.
This allows streaming results that are larger than RAM to be written to disk.
- Parameters:
- path
File path to which the file should be written.
- maintain_order
Maintain the order in which data is processed. Setting this to
False
will be slightly faster.- type_coercion
Do type coercion optimization.
- predicate_pushdown
Do predicate pushdown optimization.
- projection_pushdown
Do projection pushdown optimization.
- simplify_expression
Run simplify expressions optimization.
- slice_pushdown
Slice pushdown optimization.
- no_optimization
Turn off (certain) optimizations.
- Returns:
- DataFrame
Examples
>>> lf = pl.scan_csv("/path/to/my_larger_than_ram_file.csv") >>> lf.sink_ndjson("out.ndjson")
