Title: Custom split name with the web interface
State: closed

### Describe the bug

According the doc here: https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/datasets-file-names-and-splits#custom-split-name
it should infer the split name from the subdir of data or the beg of the name of the files in data.
When doing this manually through web upload it does not work. it uses "train" as a unique split.
example: https://huggingface.co/datasets/eole-nlp/estimator_chatml

### Steps to reproduce the bug

follow the link above

### Expected behavior

there should be two splits "mlqe" and "1720_da"

### Environment info

Title: function `load_dataset`  can't solve folder path with regex characters like "[]"
State: open

### Describe the bug

When using the `load_dataset` function with a folder path containing regex special characters (such as "[]"), the issue occurs due to how the path is handled in the `resolve_pattern` function. This function passes the unprocessed path directly to `AbstractFileSystem.glob`, which supports regular expressions. As a result, the globbing mechanism interprets these characters as regex patterns, leading to a traversal of the entire disk partition instead of confining the search to the intended directory.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

just create a folder like `E:\[D_DATA]\koch_test`, then `load_dataset("parquet", data_dir="E:\[D_DATA]\\test", split="train")`
it will keep searching the whole disk.

I add two `print` in `glob` and `resolve_pattern` to see the path

### Expected behavior

it should load the dataset as in normal folders

### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 3.3.2
- Platform: Windows-10-10.0.22631-SP0
- Python version: 3.10.16
- `huggingface_hub` version: 0.29.1
- PyArrow version: 19.0.1
- Pandas version: 2.2.3
- `fsspec` version: 2024.12.0

Comments: Hi ! Have you tried escaping the glob special characters `[` and `]` ?

btw note that`AbstractFileSystem.glob` doesn't support regex, instead it supports glob patterns as in the python library [glob](https://docs.python.org/3/library/glob.html)
Title: load_dataset with streaming hangs on parquet datasets
State: open

### Describe the bug

When I try to load a dataset with parquet files (e.g. "bigcode/the-stack") the dataset loads, but python interpreter can't exit and hangs

### Steps to reproduce the bug

```python3
import datasets

print('Start')
dataset = datasets.load_dataset("bigcode/the-stack", data_dir="data/yaml", streaming=True, split="train")
it = iter(dataset)
next(it)
print('Finish')
```

The program prints finish but doesn't exit and hangs indefinitely.
I tried this on two different machines and several datasets.

### Expected behavior

The program exits successfully

### Environment info

datasets==3.4.1
Python 3.12.9.
MacOS and Ubuntu Linux

Comments: Hi ! The issue comes from `pyarrow`, I reported it here: https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/45214 (feel free to comment / thumb up).

Alternatively we can try to find something else than `ParquetFileFragment.to_batches()` to iterate on Parquet data and keep the option the pass `filters=`...

Title: Adds EXR format to store depth images in float32
State: open

This PR adds the EXR feature to store depth images (or can be normals, etc) in float32.
It relies on [openexr_numpy](https://github.com/martinResearch/openexr_numpy/tree/main) to manipulate EXR images. 



Comments: Hi ! I'mn wondering if this shouldn't this be an `Image()` type and decoded as a `PIL.Image` ?

This would make it easier to integrate with the rest of the HF ecosystem, and you could still get a numpy array using `ds = ds.with_format("numpy")` which sets all the images to be formatted as numpy arrays@lhoestq do you mean to add the decoder, and exr extension to the image format? Yes, that probably would be better yes exactly
Title: Document the HF_DATASETS_CACHE env variable
State: closed
Labels: name: enhancement
description: New feature or request

### Feature request

Hello,

I have a use case where my team is sharing models and dataset in shared directory to avoid duplication.
I noticed that the [cache documentation for datasets](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/main/en/cache) only mention the `HF_HOME` environment variable but never the `HF_DATASETS_CACHE`.

It should be nice to add `HF_DATASETS_CACHE` to datasets documentation if it's an intended feature.
If it's not, I think a depreciation warning would be appreciated.

### Motivation

This variable is fully working and similar to what `HF_HUB_CACHE` does for models, so it's nice to know that this exists. This seems to be a quick change to implement.

### Your contribution

I could contribute since this is only affecting a small portion of the documentation

Comments: Strongly agree to this, in addition, I am also suffering to change the cache location similar to other issues (since I changed the environmental variables).
https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/6886`HF_DATASETS_CACHE` should be documented there indeed, feel free to open a PR :) Hey, I’d love to work on this issue! Could you assign it to me?sure ! you can also comment #self-assign in an issue and a bot assigns you automatically :)
Title: Problems with local dataset after upgrade from 3.3.2 to 3.4.0
State: open

### Describe the bug

I was not able to open a local saved dataset anymore that was created using an older datasets version after the upgrade yesterday from datasets 3.3.2 to 3.4.0

The traceback is 

```
Traceback (most recent call last):

### Steps to reproduce the bug

Load a dataset from a local folder with 

```
dataset = load_dataset(
                args.train_data_dir,
                cache_dir=args.cache_dir,
            )
```
as it is done for example in the training script for SD3 controlnet.

This is the minimal script to test it: 

```
from datasets import load_dataset

def main():
    dataset = load_dataset(
        "local_dataset",  
    )
    print(dataset)
    print("Sample data:", dataset["train"][0])

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
````

### Expected behavior

Work in 3.4.0 like in 3.3.2

Title: Add IterableDataset.decode with multithreading
State: closed

Useful for dataset streaming for multimodal datasets, and especially for lerobot.
It speeds up streaming up to 20 times.

When decoding is enabled (default), media types are decoded:

* audio -> dict of "array" and "sampling_rate" and "path"
* image -> PIL.Image
* video -> torchvision.io.VideoReader

You can enable multithreading using `num_threads`. This is especially useful to speed up remote
data streaming. However it can be slower than `num_threads=0` for local data on fast disks.

PS: Disabling decoding is useful if you want to iterate on the paths or bytes of the media files
without actually decoding their content.

Example: Speed up streaming with multithreading:

```py
>>> import os
>>> from datasets import load_dataset
>>> from tqdm import tqdm
>>> ds = load_dataset("sshh12/planet-textures", split="train", streaming=True)
>>> num_threads = min(32, (os.cpu_count() or 1) + 4)
>>> ds = ds.decode(num_threads=num_threads)
>>> for _ in tqdm(ds):  # 20 times faster !
...     ...
```

why not multiprocessing ? decoding is done with the GIL released in soundfile/PIL/torchvision so multiprocessing would just use more memory

Title: `datasets.disable_caching` doesn't work
State: open

When I use `Dataset.from_generator(my_gen)` to load my dataset, it simply skips my changes to the generator function.
I tried `datasets.disable_caching`, but it doesn't work!

Comments: ccYes I have the same issue.  It's a confusingly named function.  See [here](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/main/src/datasets/fingerprint.py#L115-L130)

```
...
If disabled, the library will no longer reload cached datasets files when applying transforms to the datasets.
    More precisely, if the caching is disabled:
    - cache files are always recreated
    - cache files are written to a temporary directory that is deleted when session closes
    - cache files are named using a random hash instead of the dataset fingerprint
```

Also, unfortunately the member variable `ds.cache_files` is not populated either.

I'll let you know if I find a solution.

Title: index error when num_shards > len(dataset)
State: open

In `ds.push_to_hub()` and `ds.save_to_disk()`, `num_shards` must be smaller than or equal to the number of rows in the dataset, but currently this is not checked anywhere inside these functions. Attempting to invoke these functions with `num_shards > len(dataset)` should raise an informative `ValueError`.

I frequently work with datasets with a small number of rows where each row is pretty large, so I often encounter this issue, where the function runs until the shard index in `ds.shard(num_shards, indx)` goes out of bounds. Ideally, a `ValueError` should be raised before reaching this point (i.e. as soon as `ds.push_to_hub()` or `ds.save_to_disk()` is invoked with `num_shards > len(dataset)`).

It seems that adding something like:
```python
if len(self) < num_shards:
   raise ValueError(f"num_shards ({num_shards}) must be smaller than or equal to the number of rows in the dataset ({len(self)}). Please either reduce num_shards or increase max_shard_size to make sure num_shards <= len(dataset).")
```
to the beginning of the definition of the `ds.shard()` function [here](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/f693f4e93aabafa878470c80fd42ddb10ec550d6/src/datasets/arrow_dataset.py#L4728) would deal with this issue for both `ds.push_to_hub()` and `ds.save_to_disk()`, but I'm not exactly sure if this is the best place to raise the `ValueError` (it seems that a more correct way to do it would be to write separate checks for `ds.push_to_hub()` and `ds.save_to_disk()`). I'd be happy to submit a PR if you think something along these lines would be acceptable.

Comments: Actually, looking at the code a bit more carefully, maybe an even better solution is to explicitly set `num_shards=len(self)` somewhere inside both `push_to_hub()` and `save_to_disk()` when these functions are invoked with `num_shards > len(dataset)`.
Title: Flexible Loader
State: open
Labels: name: enhancement
description: New feature or request

### Feature request

Can we have a utility function that will use `load_from_disk` when given the local path and `load_dataset` if given an HF dataset?

It can be something as simple as this one:

```
def load_hf_dataset(path_or_name):
    if os.path.exists(path_or_name):
        return load_from_disk(path_or_name)
    else:
        return load_dataset(path_or_name)
```

### Motivation

This can be done inside the user codebase, too, but in my experience, it becomes repetitive code.

### Your contribution

I can open a pull request.

Comments: Ideally `save_to_disk` should save in a format compatible with load_dataset, wdyt ?> Ideally `save_to_disk` should save in a format compatible with load_dataset, wdyt ?

That would be perfect if not at least a flexible loader.@lhoestq For now, you can use this small utility library: [nanoml](https://pypi.org/project/nanoml/)
```python
from nanoml.data import load_dataset_flexible
```

I actively develop and maintain this utility library. Open to contributors. Please open issues, PR, or feature requests.
Title: Fix multi gpu process example

to is not an inplace function.

But i am not sure about this code anyway, i think this is modifying the global variable `model` everytime the function is called? Which is on every batch? So it is juggling the same model on every gpu right? Isnt that very inefficient? 

Comments: Okay nevermind looks like to works both ways for models. but my doubt still remains, isnt this changing the device of the model every batch?
Title: Allow dataset row indexing with np.int types (#7423)
State: closed

@lhoestq 
Proposed fix for #7423. Added a couple simple tests as requested. I had some test failures related to Java and pyspark even when installing with dev but these don't seem to be related to the changes here and fail for me even on clean main.

The typeerror raised when using the wrong type is: "Wrong key type: '{key}' of type '{type(key)}'. Expected one of int, slice, range, str or Iterable." I think that is fine. But I could modify the int part to something more generic (although I'm not sure what) if wanted.

Making this change, as encouraged here:

* https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/7434#discussion_r1979933054

instead of having the pattern of using `try`-`except` to handle when there is no match, we can instead check if the return value is `None`; we can also assert that the return value should not be `None` if we know that should be true

Title: Refactor `Dataset.map` to reuse cache files mapped with different `num_proc`
State: closed

Fixes #7433

This refactor unifies `num_proc is None or num_proc == 1` and `num_proc > 1`; instead of handling them completely separately where one uses a list of kwargs and shards and the other just uses a single set of kwargs and `self`, by wrapping the `num_proc == 1` case in a list and making the difference just whether or not you use a pool, you set up either case to be able to load each other's cache files just by changing `num_shards`; `num_proc == 1` can sequentially load the shards of a dataset mapped `num_shards > 1` and map any missing shards

Other than the structural refactor, the main contribution of this PR is `existing_cache_file_map`, which uses a regex of `cache_file_name` and `suffix_template` to find existing cache files, grouped by their `num_shards`; using this data structure, we can reset `num_shards` to an existing set of cache files, and load them accordingly

Comments: @lhoestq please let me know what you think about this.It looks like I can't change the merge target to #7435, so it will look like there is a bunch of extra stuff until #7435 is in main.@lhoestq Thanks so much for reviewing #7435!

Title: `Dataset.map` ignores existing caches and remaps when ran with different `num_proc`
State: closed

### Describe the bug

If you `map` a dataset and save it to a specific `cache_file_name` with a specific `num_proc`, and then call map again with that same existing `cache_file_name` but a different `num_proc`, the dataset will be re-mapped.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Download a dataset
```python
import datasets

dataset = datasets.load_dataset("ylecun/mnist")
```

```
Generating train split: 100%|██████████| 60000/60000 [00:00<00:00, 116429.85 examples/s]
Generating test split: 100%|██████████| 10000/10000 [00:00<00:00, 103310.27 examples/s]
```

2. `map` and cache it with a specific `num_proc`

```python
cache_file_name="./cache/train.map"
dataset["train"].map(lambda x: x, cache_file_name=cache_file_name, num_proc=2)
```

```
Map (num_proc=2): 100%|██████████| 60000/60000 [00:01<00:00, 53764.03 examples/s]
```

3. `map` it with a different `num_proc` and the same `cache_file_name` as before

```python
dataset["train"].map(lambda x: x, cache_file_name=cache_file_name, num_proc=3)
```

```
Map (num_proc=3): 100%|██████████| 60000/60000 [00:00<00:00, 65377.12 examples/s]
```

### Expected behavior

If I specify an existing `cache_file_name`, I don't expect using a different `num_proc` than the one that was used to generate it to cause the dataset to have be be re-mapped.

### Environment info

```console

* https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/3044#issuecomment-1239877570

> Almost a year later and I'm in a similar boat. Using custom fingerprints and when using multiprocessing the cached datasets are saved with a template at the end of the filename (something like "000001_of_000008" for every process of num_proc). So if in the next time you run the script you set num_proc to a different number, the cache cannot be used.

> Is there any way to get around this? I am processing a huge dataset so I do the processing on one machine and then transfer the processed data to another in its cache dir but currently that's not possible due to num_proc mismatch.
