encodingType property

EncodingTypeValue? encodingType
final

The type of encoding you are using:

  • RLE_DICTIONARY uses a combination of bit-packing and run-length encoding to store repeated values more efficiently. This is the default.
  • PLAIN doesn't use encoding at all. Values are stored as they are.
  • PLAIN_DICTIONARY builds a dictionary of the values encountered in a given column. The dictionary is stored in a dictionary page for each column chunk.

Implementation

final EncodingTypeValue? encodingType;
