.. currentmodule:: pyarrow.flight

Arrow Flight

.. ifconfig:: not flight_enabled

.. error:: This documentation was built without Flight enabled. The Flight API docs are not available.

.. NOTE We still generate those API docs (with empty docstrings) .. when Flight is disabled and pyarrow.flight mocked (see conf.py). .. Otherwise we'd get autodoc warnings, see https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/4770

.. warning:: Flight is currently unstable. APIs are subject to change, though we don't expect drastic changes.
