API docs missing for `read_csv`, `read_fwf` and `read_table`
I believe there are still plenty of doc strings missing since the dask-expr migration
For example https://docs.dask.org/en/latest/generated/dask_expr.read_csv.html
Hello @fjetter - hope you're having a wonderful day!
I'd love to assist here - this would be my first ever PR, how should I help update these doc strings (aka is there a template I can follow)?
Would love to help!
A couple of things here.
First of all, this issue is actually a bit more work than I initially anticipated. A while ago we migrated to a new dataframe backend using https://github.com/dask/dask-expr We had to move over a couple of different doc strings, see for example https://github.com/dask/dask-expr/pull/1051. These doc strings should also has to be added in that repo.
The original docs for read_csv, read_fwf and read_table where actually auto generated using a template, see READ_DOC_TEMPLATE
I suspect we can use the same template but will require a slightly different mechanism. I suspect adding
read_csv.__doc__ = READ_DOC_TEMPLATE.format(reader="read_csv", file_type="CSV")
and similar for FWF and table should do the trick. (See here where the legacy readers are defined)
