DataFrame.to_msgpack(self, path_or_buf=None, encoding='utf-8', **kwargs) [source]

Serialize object to input file path using msgpack format.

Deprecated since version 0.25.0.

to_msgpack is deprecated and will be removed in a future version. It is recommended to use pyarrow for on-the-wire transmission of pandas objects.

Parameters:
path : string File path, buffer-like, or None

if None, return generated bytes

append : bool whether to append to an existing msgpack

(default is False)

compress : type of compressor (zlib or blosc), default to None (no

compression)

Returns:
None or bytes

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