feat(examples): add DuckDB partitioned Parquet export recipe by Lan-Anh-12 · Pull Request #510 · FreshCode-Org/freshdata

Lan-Anh-12 · 2026-09-28T18:49:38Z

Summary

Adds a standalone integration recipe demonstrating how to:

Generate and write a multi-partition Parquet dataset using DuckDB Hive partitioning.
Read partitioned Parquet files directly into a DuckDB relation using hive_partitioning=True.
Clean messy and inconsistent values with freshdata.clean().
Export the cleaned result back into a partitioned Parquet destination using DuckDB.

Closes #495

Why / Motivation

As outlined in the Contributor Roadmap, DuckDB is widely used for analytical pipelines querying partitioned Parquet datasets. Providing a standalone recipe makes it easy for developers to clean and export partitioned datasets.

Changes

Created examples/integrations/duckdb_parquet_export.py.
Registered recipe in examples/README.md.

Performance Impact

None / N/A (standalone example script only).

Compatibility Concerns

None.

Documentation Updated

Documented required dependency (pip install "freshdata-cleaner[duckdb]") in script docstring.
Registered recipe entry in examples/README.md.

Verification & Testing

Tested locally via python examples/integrations/duckdb_parquet_export.py — runs cleanly with all stages verified.
Added comprehensive docstring to main() function to satisfy docstring coverage checks.

Checklist

Code follows repository style guidelines.
Self-review performed.
Appropriate docstrings added.
No breaking changes introduced.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Added an example demonstrating how to read sales data from partitioned Parquet files with DuckDB, clean the data with FreshData while retaining transaction and region details, and export the results to a partitioned Parquet destination. The example also reads back the export and checks that the rows and region partition are present.

📝 Walkthrough

Adds an integration example that creates partitioned Parquet sales data, reads and cleans it with DuckDB and FreshData, then exports and rereads the cleaned data. The examples table now lists the integration.

Changes: DuckDB Parquet example

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Partitioned Parquet cleaning and export example `examples/integrations/duckdb_parquet_export.py`, `examples/README.md`	The example creates region-partitioned sales data, reads it with DuckDB hive partitioning, cleans it with FreshData, and exports and rereads the result. The examples table lists the workflow.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 3d860

The example may fail to export when the temporary-directory path contains an apostrophe. This is a narrow, readily fixable issue; otherwise the change appears mergeable.

Review details

Systems and components

observed — examples (service) was modified; 2 changed files map to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

observed — Modified behavior in examples/README.md: Added the DuckDB Parquet integration entry and its description of reading partitioned Parquet directories, cleaning with FreshData, and exporting through DuckDB.
observed — Modified behavior in examples/integrations/duckdb_parquet_export.py: Adds the example’s description and installation instructions, plus imports for temporary directories, paths, DuckDB, and FreshData.
observed — Modified behavior in examples/integrations/duckdb_parquet_export.py: Adds main, which creates and reads a four-row partitioned Parquet dataset, cleans the data with FreshData while preserving transaction_id and region, exports the cleaned result by region, and verifies the exported row count is four and the North partition exists.

Materialize the relation before cleaning.

fd.clean(raw_relation, ...) routes the DuckDBPyRelation to the out-of-core backend. The backend creates freshdata_source on the relation’s unnamed in-memory database, then scans for it on a separate unnamed in-memory database. DuckDB does not share catalogs between those connections, so the example can fail before export.

-            raw_relation,

Great work @Lan-Anh-12! The recipe provides a very clear, practical demonstration of reading partitioned Parquet datasets, cleaning them with FreshData, and re-exporting back into a partitioned layout via DuckDB SQL.

Before we merge, there are a couple of small formatting fixes needed to pass repository lint checks:

Required Changes:

Linter / Formatter Fixes (ruff check & ruff format):
- Add a blank line separating third-party import duckdb and first-party import freshdata as fd (ruff I001).
- Add a trailing newline at the end of examples/integrations/duckdb_parquet_export.py (ruff W292).
  (Running ruff check --fix . && ruff format . will fix both automatically).
Connection Lifecycle:
- Manage the DuckDB connection using a context manager (with duckdb.connect() as con:) to ensure connection handles are cleanly released.

Suggestions / Polish:

Verification assertions: In Step [5], add a quick assertion verifying row count and partition existence (e.g. assert len(verified_relation) == 4 and checking (cleaned_parquet_dir / "region=North").exists()) so the example is self-validating.
Glob pattern: Consider using **/*.parquet for the partition scan, which is the standard recursive pattern in DuckDB.

Once the linter fixes are pushed, this is ready to merge!

Thanks for addressing the review feedback, @Lan-Anh-12! The context manager, relation materialization (fetchdf()), path escaping, and verification assertions look great.

Just two quick polish items before we merge:

Restore main() docstring: In commit 3d8607e, the docstring on def main() -> None: was accidentally removed. Please restore it so docstring coverage remains satisfied.
Missing trailing newline: Line 99 needs a final trailing newline (\n) to satisfy ruff format --check.

Once those are added, this is ready to merge!
