bigframes.pandas.Series.to_csv#

Series.to_csv(path_or_buf=None, sep=',', *, header: bool = True, index: bool = True, allow_large_results: bool | None = None) → str | None[source]#

Write object to a comma-separated values (csv) file.

Examples:

>>> import bigframes.pandas as bpd

>>> s = bpd.Series([1,2,3], name='my_series')
>>> s.to_csv()
',my_series\n0,1\n1,2\n2,3\n'
Parameters:

  • path_or_buf (str, path object, file-like object, or None, default None) – String, path object (implementing os.PathLike[str]), or file-like object implementing a write() function. If None, the result is returned as a string. If a non-binary file object is passed, it should be opened with newline=’’, disabling universal newlines. If a binary file object is passed, mode might need to contain a ‘b’. Must contain a wildcard character ‘*’ if this is a GCS path.

  • sep (str, default ',') – String of length 1. Field delimiter for the output file.

  • header (bool, default True) – Write out the column names.

  • index (bool, default True) – Write row names (index).

  • allow_large_results (bool, default None) – If not None, overrides the global setting to allow or disallow large query results over the default size limit of 10 GB.

Returns:

If path_or_buf is None, returns the resulting csv format as a string. Otherwise returns None.
