||
The Apache Arrow team is pleased to announce the 0.7.0 release of | ||
the Apache Arrow ADBC libraries. This covers includes [**50 | ||
resolved issues**][1] from [**8 distinct contributors**][2]. | ||
|
||
This is a release of the **libraries**, which are at version | ||
0.7.0. The **API specification** is versioned separately and is | ||
at version 1.1.0. | ||
|
||
The release notes below are not exhaustive and only expose selected | ||
highlights of the release. Many other bugfixes and improvements have | ||
been made: we refer you to the [complete changelog][3]. | ||
|
||
## Release Highlights | ||
|
||
This is the first release to implement version 1.1.0 of the ADBC API | ||
specification. The [documentation][api-changelog] has a fuller | ||
overview of new features, but in brief: | ||
|
||
- More common options and info keys were added, and clients can now | ||
retrieve option values instead of only being able to set them. | ||
- Connections/statements can be cancelled. | ||
- Drivers can add arbitrary metadata to errors. For example, the | ||
Flight SQL driver exposes gRPC status details, and the PostgreSQL | ||
driver provides PostgreSQL-specific error fields. | ||
- Miscellaneous other APIs to cover specific feature gaps (e.g. | ||
getting/setting the 'active' catalog and schema). | ||
|
||
The PostgreSQL and SQLite drivers support ingesting Arrow data into | ||
temporary tables, and targeting a table in a particular namespace. | ||
Also, they handle quoting of table/column names in bulk ingestion | ||
better. Both drivers also support more Arrow types when executing | ||
queries and ingesting data. | ||
|
||
The FlightSQL driver supports basic logging via configuration in | ||
Go code or via an environment variable when built as a shared library | ||
(for Python/R). | ||
|
||
The Snowflake driver properly handles `TIME` fields. | ||
|
||
The minimum Go version was bumped to 1.19 (in line with the next | ||
release of the Arrow Go libraries). | ||
|
||
R drivers expose functions to quote/escape names and strings for the | ||
specific backend. | ||
|
||
The Python DBAPI layer wraps Arrow record batch readers to raise | ||
ADBC exceptions if the driver provides error metadata (see above). | ||
|

||
## Roadmap | ||
|
||
Work continues on improving the existing drivers in terms of supported | ||
Arrow/database types, performance, and so on. | ||
|
||
For Java, the minimum JDK version may be raised from JDK 8 to 11 or 17, | ||
a move that the Arrow Java libraries are also considering. | ||
|
||
There are currently no plans for a second API revision. As work progresses | ||
on asynchronous and device-aware APIs in the Arrow ecosystem, ADBC will | ||
eventually be updated to support any new APIs. | ||
|
||
## Getting Involved | ||
|
||
We welcome questions and contributions from all interested. Issues | ||
can be filed on [GitHub][4], and questions can be directed to GitHub | ||
or the [Arrow mailing lists][5]. | ||
