Pure Go, zero cgo ready
arrow builds with CGO_ENABLED=0 — it cross-compiles to every Go target with no C toolchain and links into a single static binary.
Pure-Go (CGO=0), MRI-faithful red-arrow: Apache Arrow arrays/schema/table/record-batch + IPC over apache/arrow-go. It is a pure-Go (no cgo) reimplementation of Ruby's arrow, mirroring its observable behaviour without any Ruby runtime. It is a standalone, reusable module — the backend bound into go-embedded-ruby by rbgo, the same pattern as go-ruby-yaml — differential-tested against reference Ruby, 100% coverage, CI green across 6 arches and 3 OSes.
Reference-faithful ready
Mirrors the observable behaviour of Ruby’s arrow from reference Ruby (MRI), validated by a differential oracle against the reference rather than approximated — without any Ruby runtime.
Standalone & reusable ready
A standalone Go module any program can import; the OAuth-style dependency runs the other way — rbgo binds it into go-embedded-ruby as a native module, the same pattern as go-ruby-yaml.
100% coverage · 6 arches ready
100% test coverage is the CI gate, gofmt + go vet clean, green across the six 64-bit Go targets (amd64, arm64, riscv64, loong64, ppc64le, s390x — including the big-endian lane).
- ready capability complete (exit criteria met, nothing material left)
A faithful pure-Go port of Ruby's arrow, cgo disabled, so it cross-compiles and embeds anywhere. Validated differentially against reference Ruby. It is a standalone, reusable module and the backend bound by rbgo into the sibling org github.com/go-embedded-ruby.
