Archery is documented on the Arrow website:
See the pages linked above for more details. As a general overview, Archery comes in a number of subpackages, each needing to be installed if you want to use the functionality of it:
- lint – lint (and in some cases auto-format) code in the Arrow repo
To install:
pip install -e "arrow/dev/archery[lint]" - benchmark – to run Arrow benchmarks using Archery
To install:
pip install -e "arrow/dev/archery[benchmark]" - docker – to run docker-compose based tasks more easily
To install:
pip install -e "arrow/dev/archery[docker]" - release – release related helpers
To install:
pip install -e "arrow/dev/archery[release]" - crossbow – to trigger + interact with the crossbow build system
To install:
pip install -e "arrow/dev/archery[crossbow]" - crossbow-upload
To install:
pip install -e "arrow/dev/archery[crossbow-upload]"
Additionally, if you would prefer to install everything at once,
pip install -e "arrow/dev/archery[all]" is an alias for all of
the above subpackages.
For some prior art on benchmarking in Arrow, see this prototype.
