Azure 数据湖 - 使用 Python 读取

Question

I am trying to read a file from Azure Data lake using Python in a Databricks notebook. this is the code I used,

from azure.storage.filedatalake import DataLakeFileClient

file = DataLakeFileClient.from_connection_string("DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=mydatalake;AccountKey=******;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net",file_system_name="files", file_path="/2020/50002")

with open("./sample.txt", "wb") as my_file:
    download = file.download_file()
    content = download.readinto(my_file)
    print(content)

The output I get is 0. Can you some point what I am doing wrong. my expectation is to print the file content.

Answer 1

The from_connection_string method returns a DataLakeFileClient , you could not use it to download the file.

If you want to download a file to local, you could refer to my below code.

import os, uuid, sys
from azure.storage.filedatalake import DataLakeServiceClient

service_client = DataLakeServiceClient.from_connection_string("DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName=***;AccountKey=*****;EndpointSuffix=core.windows.net")

file_system_client = service_client.get_file_system_client(file_system="test")

directory_client = file_system_client.get_directory_client("testdirectory")

file_client = directory_client.get_file_client("test.txt")

download=file_client.download_file()

downloaded_bytes = download.readall()

with open("./sample.txt", "wb") as my_file:
    my_file.write(downloaded_bytes)
    my_file.close()

If you want more sample code, you could refer to this doc: Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 .
