Which issue does this PR close?
What changes are included in this PR?
This PR improves compatibility with Arrow data sources like DataFusion that may not provide the
PARQUET:field_id
metadata in their schemas.When
field_id
is unavailable, this change introduces a fallback mechanism to look up fields byname
. This makes the integration more robust and prevents lookup failures.The key changes include:
Field Lookup Fallback: The core logic now uses the field
name
for column lookups whenfield_id
is missing.Enhanced Error Messages: The error message for a failed lookup is now more descriptive, making it easier to debug schema issues.
Are these changes tested?
Yes. A new unit test has been added to specifically validate the name-based fallback logic, ensuring this new behavior is covered.
