cudf.core.dtypes.ListDtype.serialize#
- ListDtype.serialize() tuple[dict, list] [source]#
Generate an equivalent serializable representation of an object.
Subclasses must implement this method to define how the attributes of the object are converted into a serializable representation. A common solution is to construct a list containing device buffer attributes in a well-defined order that can be reinterpreted upon deserialization, then place all other lightweight attributes into the metadata dictionary.
- Returns:
- Tuple[Dict, List]
The first element of the returned tuple is a dict containing any serializable metadata required to reconstruct the object. The second element is a list containing the device data buffers or memoryviews of the object.
