Pandas IO工具

注意

比如在使用 StringIO 類時(shí), 請(qǐng)先確定python的版本信息。也就是說，是使用python2的from StringIO import StringIO還是python3的from io import StringIO。

Note

In some cases, reading in abnormal data with columns containing mixed dtypes will result in an inconsistent dataset. If you rely on pandas to infer the dtypes of your columns, the parsing engine will go and infer the dtypes for different chunks of the data, rather than the whole dataset at once. Consequently, you can end up with column(s) with mixed dtypes. For example,

In [23]: col_1 = list(range(500000)) + ['a', 'b'] + list(range(500000))

In [24]: df = pd.DataFrame({'col_1': col_1})

In [25]: df.to_csv('foo.csv')

In [26]: mixed_df = pd.read_csv('foo.csv')

In [27]: mixed_df['col_1'].apply(type).value_counts()
Out[27]: 
<class 'int'>    737858
<class 'str'>    262144
Name: col_1, dtype: int64

In [28]: mixed_df['col_1'].dtype
Out[28]: dtype('O')

will result with mixed_df containing an int dtype for certain chunks of the column, and str for others due to the mixed dtypes from the data that was read in. It is important to note that the overall column will be marked with a dtype of object, which is used for columns with mixed dtypes.

In [29]: data = ('col1,col2,col3\n'
   ....:         'a,b,1\n'

Note

With dtype='category', the resulting categories will always be parsed as strings (object dtype). If the categories are numeric they can be converted using the to_numeric()function, or as appropriate, another converter such as to_datetime()

When dtype is a CategoricalDtype with homogeneous categories ( all numeric, all datetimes, etc.), the conversion is done automatically.

Default behavior is to infer the column names: if no names are passed the behavior is identical to header=0 and column names are inferred from the first non-blank line of the file, if column names are passed explicitly then the behavior is identical to header=None.

Warning

The presence of ignored lines might create ambiguities involving line numbers; the parameter header uses row numbers (ignoring commented/empty lines), while skiprows uses line numbers (including commented/empty lines):

In [65]: data = ('#comment\n'
   ....:         'a,b,c\n'
   ....:         'A,B,C\n'
   ....:         '1,2,3')
   ....: 

In [66]: pd.read_csv(StringIO(data), comment='#', header=1)
Out[66]: 
   A  B  C
0  1  2  3

In [67]: data = ('A,B,C\n'
   ....:         '#comment\n'
   ....:         'a,b,c\n'
   ....:         '1,2,3')
   ....: 

In [68]: pd.read_csv(StringIO(data), comment='#', skiprows=2)
Out[68]: 
   a  b  c
0  1  2  3

If both header and skiprows are specified, header will be relative to the end of skiprows. For example:

In [69]: data = ('# empty\n'
   ....:         '# second empty line\n'
   ....:         '# third emptyline\n'
   ....:         'X,Y,Z\n'

Note

If a column or index contains an unparsable date, the entire column or index will be returned unaltered as an object data type. For non-standard datetime parsing, use to_datetime()after pd.read_csv.

Note

read_csv has a fast_path for parsing datetime strings in iso8601 format, e.g “2000-01-01T00:01:02+00:00” and similar variations. If you can arrange for your data to store datetimes in this format, load times will be significantly faster, ~20x has been observed.

Note

When passing a dict as the parse_dates argument, the order of the columns prepended is not guaranteed, because dict objects do not impose an ordering on their keys. On Python 2.7+ you may use collections.OrderedDict instead of a regular dict if this matters to you. Because of this, when using a dict for ‘parse_dates’ in conjunction with the index_col argument, it’s best to specify index_col as a column label rather then as an index on the resulting frame.

注意

如果convert_dates = True并且數(shù)據(jù)和/或列標(biāo)簽顯示為“類似日期（'date-like'）“，則可以將大的整數(shù)值轉(zhuǎn)換為日期。 確切的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)取決于指定的date_unit。 'date-like'表示列標(biāo)簽符合以下標(biāo)準(zhǔn)之一：

• 結(jié)尾以 '_at'
• 結(jié)尾以 '_time'
• 開頭以 'timestamp'
• 它是 'modified'
• 它是 'date'

警告

在讀取JSON數(shù)據(jù)時(shí)，自動(dòng)強(qiáng)制轉(zhuǎn)換為dtypes有一些不同尋常的地方：

• 索引可以按序列化的不同順序重建，也就是說，返回的順序不能保證與序列化之前的順序相同

• 如果可以安全地，那么一列浮動(dòng)（float)數(shù)據(jù)將被轉(zhuǎn)換為一列整數(shù)(integer)，例如 一列 1

• 布爾列將在重建時(shí)轉(zhuǎn)換為整數(shù)（integer)

因此，有時(shí)你會(huì)有那樣的時(shí)刻可能想通過dtype關(guān)鍵字參數(shù)指定特定的dtypes。

注意

為了從read_excel內(nèi)部獲取更多點(diǎn)的性能，Excel存儲(chǔ)所有數(shù)值型數(shù)據(jù)為浮點(diǎn)數(shù)。但這會(huì)產(chǎn)生意外的情況當(dāng)讀取數(shù)據(jù)的時(shí)候，如果沒有損失信息的話（1.0 --> 1)，pandas默認(rèn)的轉(zhuǎn)換整數(shù)為浮點(diǎn)數(shù)。你可以通過convert_float=False禁止這種行為，這可能會(huì)在性能上有輕微的優(yōu)化。

writer = pd.ExcelWriter(bio, engine='xlsxwriter')
df.to_excel(writer, sheet_name='Sheet1')

# Save the workbook
writer.save()

# Seek to the beginning and read to copy the workbook to a variable in memory
bio.seek(0)
workbook = bio.read()

注意

雖然engine是可選方法，但是推薦使用。設(shè)置engine決定了工作簿生成的版本。設(shè)置engine='xlrd'將生成 Excel 2003版的工作簿（xls）。而使用'openpyxl'或'xlsxwriter'將生成Excel 2007版的工作簿（xlsx)。如果省略，將直接生成Excel 2007版的。

Note

• = will be automatically expanded to the comparison operator ==
• ~ is the not operator, but can only be used in very limited circumstances
• If a list/tuple of expressions is passed they will be combined via &

Note

Passing a string to a query by interpolating it into the query expression is not recommended. Simply assign the string of interest to a variable and use that variable in an expression. For example, do this

string = "HolyMoly'"
store.select('df', 'index == string')

instead of this

string = "HolyMoly'"
store.select('df', 'index == %s' % string)

The latter will not work and will raise a SyntaxError.Note that there’s a single quote followed by a double quote in the string variable.

If you must interpolate, use the '%r' format specifier

store.select('df', 'index == %r' % string)

which will quote string.

Warning

Please note that HDF5 DOES NOT RECLAIM SPACE in the h5 files automatically. Thus, repeatedly deleting (or removing nodes) and adding again, WILL TEND TO INCREASE THE FILE SIZE.

To repack and clean the file, use ptrepack.

Note

If the library specified with the complib option is missing on your platform, compression defaults to zlib without further ado.

store_compressed = pd.HDFStore('store_compressed.h5', complevel=9,
                               complib='blosc:blosclz')

store.append('df', df, complib='zlib', complevel=5)

ptrepack --chunkshape=auto --propindexes --complevel=9 --complib=blosc in.h5 out.h5

Warning

HDFStore is not-threadsafe for writing. The underlying PyTables only supports concurrent reads (via threading or processes). If you need reading and writing at the same time, you need to serialize these operations in a single thread in a single process. You will corrupt your data otherwise. See the (GH2397) for more information.

Warning

PyTables will show a NaturalNameWarning if a column name cannot be used as an attribute selector. Natural identifiers contain only letters, numbers, and underscores, and may not begin with a number. Other identifiers cannot be used in a where clause and are generally a bad idea.

Note

These engines are very similar and should read/write nearly identical parquet format files. Currently pyarrow does not support timedelta data, fastparquet>=0.1.4 supports timezone aware datetimes. These libraries differ by having different underlying dependencies (fastparquet by using numba, while pyarrow uses a c-library).

NoteThe function read_sql( is a convenience wrapper around read_sql_table()and read_sql_query( (and for backward compatibility) and will delegate to specific function depending on the provided input (database table name or sql query). Table names do not need to be quoted if they have special characters.

Note

Due to the limited support for timedelta’s in the different database flavors, columns with type timedelta64 will be written as integer values as nanoseconds to the database and a warning will be raised.

Note

Columns of category dtype will be converted to the dense representation as you would get with np.asarray(categorical) (e.g. for string categories this gives an array of strings). Because of this, reading the database table back in does not generate a categorical.

Warning

Starting in 0.20.0, pandas has split off Google BigQuery support into the separate package pandas-gbq. You can pip install pandas-gbq to get it.

Note

It is not possible to export missing data values for integer data types.

Warning

Conversion from int64 to float64 may result in a loss of precision if int64 values are larger than 2**53.

Warning

StataWriter and to_stata() only support fixed width strings containing up to 244 characters, a limitation imposed by the version 115 dta file format. Attempting to write Stata dta files with strings longer than 244 characters raises a ValueError.

Note

read_stata()and StataReader support .dta formats 113-115 (Stata 10-12), 117 (Stata 13), and 118 (Stata 14).

Note

Setting preserve_dtypes=False will upcast to the standard pandas data types: int64 for all integer types and float64 for floating point data. By default, the Stata data types are preserved when importing.

Warning

Stata only supports string value labels, and so str is called on the categories when exporting data. Exporting Categorical variables with non-string categories produces a warning, and can result a loss of information if the str representations of the categories are not unique.

Note

When importing categorical data, the values of the variables in the Stata data file are not preserved since Categorical variables always use integer data types between -1 and n-1 where n is the number of categories. If the original values in the Stata data file are required, these can be imported by setting convert_categoricals=False, which will import original data (but not the variable labels). The original values can be matched to the imported categorical data since there is a simple mapping between the original Stata data values and the category codes of imported Categorical variables: missing values are assigned code -1, and the smallest original value is assigned 0, the second smallest is assigned 1 and so on until the largest original value is assigned the code n-1.

Note

Stata supports partially labeled series. These series have value labels for some but not all data values. Importing a partially labeled series will produce a Categorical with string categories for the values that are labeled and numeric categories for values with no label.
