How to call vacuum with a dry run in Python for a Delta Lake

Question

I can see an example on how to call the vacuum function for a Delta lake in python here . But how do I call it for only a dry run? In other words, what is the equivalent Python code for the following?

%sql
VACUUM delta.`dbfs:/mnt/<myfolder>` DRY RUN

Answer 1

The dry run for non-SQL code is not yet available in Delta version 0.8.

There is an issue Vacuum dry run unavailable - deleted file information unexposed #454 open on GitHub.
