I couldn’t find if there is any supported method to build a huggingface dataset object from an arrow file… Does anyone know if it is possible?

Thank you very much in advance… I am stuck on it!

Hi ! You can do

```python
from datasets import Dataset

ds = Dataset.from_file("path/to/data.arrow")
```
