Python deltalake package

This is the documentation for the native Python implementation of deltalake. It is based on the delta-rs Rust library and requires no Spark or JVM dependencies. For the PySpark implementation, see delta-spark instead.

This module provides the capability to read, write, and manage Delta Lake tables from Python without Spark or Java. It uses Apache Arrow under the hood, so is compatible with other Arrow-native or integrated libraries such as Pandas, DuckDB, and Polars.

Note

This module is under active development and some features are experimental. It is not yet as feature-complete as the PySpark implementation of Delta Lake. If you encounter a bug, please let us know in our GitHub repo.
