+\title{Define Partitioning for a Dataset}
+\description{
+Pass a \code{Partitioning} object to a \link{FileSystemDatasetFactory}'s \verb{$create()}
+method to indicate how the file's paths should be interpreted to define
+partitioning.
+
+\code{DirectoryPartitioning} describes how to interpret raw path segments, in
+order. For example, \code{schema(year = int16(), month = int8())} would define
+partitions for file paths like "2019/01/file.parquet",
+"2019/02/file.parquet", etc. In this scheme \code{NULL} values will be skipped. In
+the previous example: when writing a dataset if the month was \code{NA} (or
+\code{NULL}), the files would be placed in "2019/file.parquet". When reading, the
+rows in "2019/file.parquet" would return an \code{NA} for the month column. An
+error will be raised if an outer directory is \code{NULL} and an inner directory
+is not.
+
+\code{HivePartitioning} is for Hive-style partitioning, which embeds field
+names and values in path segments, such as
+"/year=2019/month=2/data.parquet". Because fields are named in the path
+segments, order does not matter. This partitioning scheme allows \code{NULL}
+values. They will be replaced by a configurable \code{null_fallback} which
+defaults to the string \code{"__HIVE_DEFAULT_PARTITION__"} when writing. When
+reading, the \code{null_fallback} string will be replaced with \code{NA}s as
+appropriate.
+
+\code{PartitioningFactory} subclasses instruct the \code{DatasetFactory} to detect
+partition features from the file paths.
+}
+\section{Factory}{
+
+Both \code{DirectoryPartitioning$create()} and \code{HivePartitioning$create()}
+methods take a \link{Schema} as a single input argument. The helper
+function \code{\link[=hive_partition]{hive_partition(...)}} is shorthand for
+\code{HivePartitioning$create(schema(...))}.
+
+With \code{DirectoryPartitioningFactory$create()}, you can provide just the
+names of the path segments (in our example, \code{c("year", "month")}), and
+the \code{DatasetFactory} will infer the data types for those partition variables.
+\code{HivePartitioningFactory$create()} takes no arguments: both variable names
+and their types can be inferred from the file paths. \code{hive_partition()} with
+no arguments returns a \code{HivePartitioningFactory}.
