Title: Conversion to Arrow fails due to wrong type heuristic
State: closed

### Describe the bug

I have a list of dictionaries with valid/JSON-serializable values. 

One key is the denominator for a paragraph. In 99.9% of cases its a number, but there are some occurences of '1a', '2b' and so on.

If trying to convert this list to a dataset with `Dataset.from_list()`, I always get
`ArrowInvalid: Could not convert '1' with type str: tried to convert to int64`, presumably because pyarrow tries to convert the keys to integers.

Is there any way to circumvent this and fix dtypes? I didn't find anything in the documentation.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

* create a list of dicts with one key being a string of an integer for the first few thousand occurences and try to convert to dataset.


### Expected behavior

There shouldn't be an error (e.g. some flag to turn off automatic str to numeric conversion).

### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.14.5
- Platform: Linux-5.15.0-84-generic-x86_64-with-glibc2.35
- Python version: 3.9.18
- Huggingface_hub version: 0.17.3
- PyArrow version: 13.0.0
- Pandas version: 2.1.1

Comments: Unlike Pandas, Arrow is strict with types, so converting the problematic strings to ints (or ints to strings) to ensure all the values have the same type is the only fix. 

JSON support has been requested in Arrow [here](https://github.com/apache/arrow/issues/32538), but I don't expect this to be implemented soon. 

Also, this type could be represented with the Arrow Union type. However, due to low usage, the Union type has limited support in the Arrow ecosystem (e.g., IIRC Parquet still does not support it). So, we should probably wait a bit more before adding support for it in `datasets`> Unlike Pandas, Arrow is strict with types, so converting the problematic strings to ints (or ints to strings) to ensure all the values have the same type is the only fix.

Ok many thanks, I was able to mitigate the problem by manually checking and converting all problematic fields now.
Title: Loading dataset from large GCS bucket very slow since 2.14
State: open

### Describe the bug

Since updating to >2.14 we have very slow access to our parquet files on GCS when loading a dataset (>30 min vs 3s). Our GCS bucket has many objects and resolving globs is very slow. I could track down the problem to this change:
https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blame/bade7af74437347a760830466eb74f7a8ce0d799/src/datasets/data_files.py#L348 
The underlying implementation with gcsfs is really slow. Could you go back to the old way if we are simply giving the parquet files and no glob pattern?

Thank you.




### Steps to reproduce the bug

Load a dataset from a GCS bucket that has many files.

### Expected behavior

Used to be fast (3s) in 2.13

### Environment info

datasets==2.14.5

Comments: I've also encountered this issue recently and want to ask if this has been seen.

@albertvillanova for visibility - I'm not sure who the right person is to tag, but I noticed you were active recently so perhaps you can direct this to the right person.

Thanks!
Title: Dataset slice splits can't load training and validation at the same time
State: closed

### Describe the bug

According to the [documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/v2.14.5/loading#slice-splits) is should be possible to run the following command:

`train_test_ds = datasets.load_dataset("bookcorpus", split="train+test")`

to load the train and test sets from the dataset. 

However executing the equivalent code:

`speech_commands_v1 = load_dataset("superb", "ks", split="train+test")`

only yields the following output:

> Dataset({
>     features: ['file', 'audio', 'label'],
>     num_rows: 54175
> })

Where loading the dataset without the split argument yields:

> DatasetDict({
>     train: Dataset({
>         features: ['file', 'audio', 'label'],
>         num_rows: 51094
>     })
>     validation: Dataset({
>         features: ['file', 'audio', 'label'],
>         num_rows: 6798
>     })
>     test: Dataset({
>         features: ['file', 'audio', 'label'],
>         num_rows: 3081
>     })
> })

Thus, the API seems to be broken in this regard. 

This is a bit annoying since I want to be able to use the split argument with `split="train[:10%]+test[:10%]"` to have smaller dataset to work with when validating my model is working correctly. 

### Steps to reproduce the bug

`speech_commands_v1 = load_dataset("superb", "ks", split="train+test")`

### Expected behavior

> DatasetDict({
>     train: Dataset({
>         features: ['file', 'audio', 'label'],
>         num_rows: 51094

>     test: Dataset({
>         features: ['file', 'audio', 'label'],
>         num_rows: 3081

Comments: The expression "train+test" concatenates the splits.

The individual splits as separate datasets can be obtained as follows:
```python
train_ds, test_ds = load_dataset("<dataset_name>", split=["train", "test"])
train_10pct_ds, test_10pct_ds = load_dataset("<dataset_name>", split=["train[:10%]", "test[:%10]"])
```
Title: sentiment140 dataset unavailable
State: closed

### Describe the bug

loading the dataset using load_dataset("sentiment140") returns the following error
ConnectionError: Couldn't reach http://cs.stanford.edu/people/alecmgo/trainingandtestdata.zip (error 403)

### Steps to reproduce the bug

Run the following code (version should not matter).

```
from datasets import load_dataset
data = load_dataset("sentiment140")
```

### Expected behavior

The dataset should be loaded just like any other.
The main issue is that it is no longer hosted by stanford. It is still available from a [Google Drive Link](https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B04GJPshIjmPRnZManQwWEdTZjg/edit).

Title: Hub datasets with CSV metadata raise ArrowInvalid: JSON parse error: Invalid value. in row 0
State: closed
Labels: name: bug
description: Something isn't working

When trying to load a Hub dataset that contains a CSV metadata file, it raises an `ArrowInvalid` error:
```
E   pyarrow.lib.ArrowInvalid: JSON parse error: Invalid value. in row 0

See: https://huggingface.co/datasets/lukarape/public_small_papers/discussions/1
Title: Add return_file_name in load_dataset
State: closed

Proposition to fix #5806.

Added an optional parameter `return_file_name` in the dataset builder config. When set to `True`, the function will include the file name corresponding to the sample in the returned output.

There is a difference between arrow-based and folder-based datasets to return the file name:
- for arrow-based: a column is concatenated after the table is cast.
- for folder-based: `dataset.info.features` has the entry `file_name` and the original file name is passed to the `sample_metadata` dictionary. 

The difference in behavior might be a concern, also I do not know whether the `file_name` should return the original file path or the downloaded one for folder-based datasets.

I added some tests for the datasets that already had a test file.

Comments: The docs for this PR live [here](https://moon-ci-docs.huggingface.co/docs/datasets/pr_6310). All of your documentation changes will be reflected on that endpoint.> Thanks for the change !

> Since `return` in python often refers to what is actually returned by the function (here `load_dataset`), I think we can use another word for the parameter. Maybe name it `with_file_names`?

I changed the argument name to your suggestion, I agree that it should be less confusing :)> Thanks! I've left some comments.
> 
> @lhoestq WDYT about returning a data file's name (the last part) instead of the full path? This way we could have the same values in the streaming and the non-streaming mode. (In the non-streaming mode, we would also have to iterate over remote files to not output the files' hash (from the HF cache))

Concerning the last part of the file name, do you have suggestions on how to do that? Because it can happen that the files are located in different folders with the same name so I am wondering what would be the way to go.Hi @lhoestq @mariosasko, I just pushed a version rebased on main I've seen some activity on the issue associated to the PR so I wonder if you are interested in keeping up the process of merging this PR. I still have the same issues as indicated in the previous comment.The original issue https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/5806 is about returning the file names in order to be able to resume data loading from a checkpoint.

Data loading checkpointing has been implemented recently actually, using `torchdata` `StatefulDataloader`

See the discussion at https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/5454

Title: Parquet uploads off-by-one naming scheme
State: open

### Describe the bug

I noticed this numbering scheme not matching up in a different project and wanted to raise it as an issue for discussion, what is the actual proper way to have these stored?

<img width="425" alt="image" src="https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/assets/1981179/3ffa2144-7c9a-446f-b521-a5e9db71e7ce">

The `-SSSSS-of-NNNNN` seems to be used widely across the codebase. The section that creates the part in my screenshot is here https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/main/src/datasets/arrow_dataset.py#L5287
There are also some edits to this section in the single commit branch.

### Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Upload a dataset that requires at least two parquet files in it
2. Observe the naming scheme

### Expected behavior

The couple options here are of course **1. keeping it as is**

**2. Starting the index at 1:**
train-00001-of-00002-{hash}.parquet
train-00002-of-00002-{hash}.parquet

**3. My preferred option** (which would solve my specific issue), dropping the total entirely:
train-00000-{hash}.parquet
train-00001-{hash}.parquet

This also solves an issue that will occur with an `append` variable for `push_to_hub` (see https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/issues/6290) where as you add a new parquet file, you need to rename everything in the repo as well. 

However, I know there are parts of the repo that use 0 as the starting file or may require the total, so raising the question for discussion.


### Environment info

- `datasets` version: 2.14.6.dev0
- Platform: macOS-14.0-arm64-arm-64bit
- Python version: 3.10.12
- Huggingface_hub version: 0.18.0
- PyArrow version: 12.0.1
- Pandas version: 1.5.3

Comments: You can find the reasoning behind this naming scheme [here](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/16343#discussion_r931182168).

This point has been raised several times, so I'd be okay with starting with `00001-` (also to be consistent with the `transformers` sharding), but I'm not sure @lhoestq agrees.We start at 0 in `datasets` for consistency with Apache Spark, Apache Beam, Dask and others.

Also note `transformers` isn't a good reference on this topic. I talked with the maintainers when they added shards but it was already released this way. Though we found that there is a backward-compatible way in `transformers` to start at 0, but no request from `transformers` users to changes this AFAIK.not sure it would be a good idea to break the consistency now, IMOMakes sense to start at 0 for plenty of good reasons so I'm on board.

What about the second part `-of-0000X`? With single commit PR #6269  just getting merged, there was a note about issues with 100+ file edits https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/6269#issuecomment-1755428581.

That would be my last remaining concern in the context of the `push_to_hub(..., append=True)` work to be done, where appending a single file to the full dataset will require renaming every other existing file in the dataset. If it doesn't seem like a big issue for this work then all the better 👍
Title: ArrowWriter/ParquetWriter `write` method does not increase `_num_bytes` and hence datasets not sharding at `max_shard_size`
State: closed

### Describe the bug

An example from [1], does not work when limiting shards with `max_shard_size`.

Try the following example with low `max_shard_size`, such as:

```python
builder.download_and_prepare(output_dir, storage_options=storage_options, file_format="parquet", max_shard_size="10MB")
```

The reason for this is that, in line [2] `writer._num_bytes > max_shard_size` is never true, because the `write` method of `ArrowWriter` [3] does not increase `self._num_bytes`.

Such that respective Arrow/Parquet shards are only written to file based on the `writer_batch_size` or `config.DEFAULT_MAX_BATCH_SIZE`, but not based on `max_shard_size`.

[2] https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/3e8d420808718c9a1453a2e7ee3484ca12c9c70d/src/datasets/builder.py#L1677

### Steps to reproduce the bug

Get example from: https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/filesystems#download-and-prepare-a-dataset-into-a-cloud-storage

Call `builder.download_and_prepare` with low `max_shard_size` such as `10MB`, e.g.:
```python
builder.download_and_prepare(output_dir, storage_options=storage_options, file_format="parquet", max_shard_size="10MB")
```

### Expected behavior

Shards should be written based on `max_shard_size` instead of batch size.

### Environment info

```
>>> import datasets
>>> datasets.__version__
'2.14.6.dev0
```

Comments: `writer._num_bytes` is updated every `writer_batch_size`-th call to the `write` method (default `writer_batch_size` is 1000 (examples)). You should be able to see the update by passing a smaller `writer_batch_size` to the `load_dataset_builder`.

We could improve this by supporting the string `writer_batch_size` version as we do with `max_shard_size`, and capping `writer_batch_size` to `max_shard_size` in scenarios where the default `writer_batch_size` > `max_shard_size`. Thanks, reducing `writer_batch_size` solved my problem :)

### Feature request

Hi,

I like your idea of adapting the datasets library to be usable with JAX. Thank you for that.

However, in your [setup.py](https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/blob/main/setup.py), you enforce old versions of JAX <= 0.3... It is very cumbersome !

What is the rationale for such a limitation ? Can you remove it please ?

Thanks,

### Motivation

This library is unusable with new versions of JAX ?

### Your contribution

Yes.

Have the possibility to do `ds.push_to_hub(..., append=True)`.

### Motivation

Requested in this [comment](https://huggingface.co/datasets/laion/dalle-3-dataset/discussions/3#65252597c4edc168202a5eaa) and 
this [comment](https://huggingface.co/datasets/laion/dalle-3-dataset/discussions/4#6524f675c9607bdffb208d8f). Discussed internally on [slack](https://huggingface.slack.com/archives/C02EMARJ65P/p1696950642610639?thread_ts=1690554266.830949&cid=C02EMARJ65P).


### Your contribution

What I suggest to do for parquet datasets is to use `CommitOperationCopy` + `CommitOperationDelete` from `huggingface_hub`:
1. list files
2. copy files from parquet-0001-of-0004 to parquet-0001-of-0005
3. delete files like parquet-0001-of-0004
4. generate + add last parquet file parquet-0005-of-0005

=> make a single commit with all commit operations at once


I think it should be quite straightforward to implement. Happy to review a PR (maybe conflicting with the ongoing "1 commit push_to_hub" PR https://github.com/huggingface/datasets/pull/6269)

Whats the current recommended way to upload large datasets to the hub? I can't load it all to memory after some limit right

@tolgadur bro, you may set 'data_dir' as a temporary solution like that:

`Dataset.push_to_hub('your_repo_aame', data_dir='data_{index}')`
Related to this feature request: `pyarrow` 21 is out and added content defined chunking for parquet, which enables deduped uploads to Xet.

Therefore we can have a logic in append=True that modifies an existing Parquet file to add more rows without having to reupload the full file.
