I am trying to convert a very large csv file to parquet.
I have tried the following method:
df1 = pd.read_csv('/kaggle/input/amex-default-prediction/train_data.csv')
df1.to_parquet('/kaggle/input/amex-default-prediction/train.parquet')
but pd.read_csv throws Out Of Memory Error
Is there any way to convert to the file without loading it entirely ?
To solve the memory problem, you can first import the data with the chunck method of pandas and save each chunck as a parquet file. So for example for your case, create a folder "train_data", and in this folder you save the different parquet files that correspond to the chuncks.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import os
import csv2parquet
from subprocess import run
import fastparquet
import sys
import pyarrow.parquet as pq
path ="C:/.../amex-default-prediction/"
parquet="parquet/"
#create new folder train_data
path_train_data="train_data/"
def get_path_parquet(file):
if file.split('.')[0]=="sample_submission":
return path_sample_submission
elif file.split('.')[0]=="test_data":
return path_test_data
elif file.split('.')[0]=="train_data":
return path_train_data
elif file.split('.')[0]=="train_labels":
return path_train_label
def csv_to_parquet(df,title, path,i):
"""
Convert Csv files to parquet
df : csv data
title : name data
path : folder into the save parquet data
"""
try:
title_prefix=title.split(".")[0]+str(i)
out_title = path + f'\\{title_prefix}.parquet'
df.to_parquet(out_title, engine='fastparquet')
except:
sys.exit(-1)
def loding_csv_with_chunk(path,file):
try:
chunk_csv= pd.read_csv(path + f'\\{file}', low_memory=False, chunksize = 5000)
#df = pd.concat(chunk for chunk in chunk_csv)
return chunk_csv
except:
sys.exit(-1)
def read_partition_parquet():
dataset = pq.ParquetDataset(path_train_, use_legacy_dataset=False)
data=dataset.read().to_pandas()
return data
#csv_df
for file in os.listdir(path):
if file[-4:]==".csv":
print("begin process for : "+str(file)+ "....")
#csv_df = pd.read_csv(path + f'\\{file}')
##load data with chunck method
chunk_csv = loding_csv_with_chunk(path,file)
##for each chunck save the data on parquet format
for i, df_chunk in enumerate(chunk_csv):
print(df_chunk.shape)
title_prefix=file.split(".")[0]+str(i)
out_title = path+parquet+get_path_parquet(file) + f'{title_prefix}.parquet'
df_chunk.to_parquet(out_title, engine='fastparquet')
#csv_to_parquet(csv_df,file, path)
print("end process for : "+str(file)+ "....")

continue
