Note that pip install will only work after the next Arrow release.

Aravindh Varadharaju:
Is pip install available in the current release? pip install complains that it is not able to find pyarrow distribution.

Wes McKinney / @wesm:
I know that @xhochy is still working on it. I recommend installing with conda for now

conda install pyarrow -c conda-forge

[asfimport]

Aravindh Varadharaju:
Thank you very much Wes. I will go ahead with conda.

[~avaradharaju] The wheel is just waiting for the first release of parquet-cpp. Then I'll upload Linux wheels to PyPI. OSX wheels will come with 0.3 which should hopefully land end of the month.
