RuntimeError: Decompression 'SNAPPY' not available. Options: ['GZIP', 'UNCOMPRESSED']

See original GitHub issue

Output:

RuntimeError: Decompression 'SNAPPY' not available.  Options: ['GZIP', 'UNCOMPRESSED']

Code:

from fastparquet import ParquetFile

filename = 'somefile.parquet'
pf = ParquetFile(filename)

Environment:

$ python -V; pip list | grep -e fastparquet -e snapp
Python 3.6.5
fastparquet      0.1.6
python-snappy    0.5.3

I’ve tried install snappy instead of python-snappy. Still no joy because with these installed…

python-snappy    0.5.3
snappy           2.6.1
snappy-manifolds 1.0

I get the error:

AttributeError: module 'snappy' has no attribute 'compress'

On Ubuntu linux, I simply installed python-snappy from conda-forge, and it simply avoids the error.
