[Python] `ArrowInvalid`: CSV conversion error to date32[day]: invalid value '2000-01-01 00:00:00'

[randolf-scholz]

Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.

pyarrow has no issue casting timestamps like '2000-01-01 00:00:00' to date32, but for some reason it doesn't like doing it when reading a CSV. Generally, if types are safe to cast, I'd expect that read_csv can directly convert to the desired type.

from io import BytesIO

import pyarrow as pa
from pyarrow import csv

data = "\n".join(
 [
 "time,value",
 "2000-01-01 00:00:00,-1",
 "2000-01-02 00:00:00,-2",
 "2000-01-03 00:00:00,-3",
 ]
)

schema = pa.schema(
 {
 "time": pa.date32(),
 "value": pa.int8(),
 }
)

with BytesIO(data.encode("utf8")) as file:
 table = csv.read_csv(file)
 table = table.cast(schema) # ✔ casting OK

with BytesIO(data.encode("utf8")) as file:
 table = csv.read_csv( # ✘ ArrowInvalid
 file,
 convert_options=csv.ConvertOptions(column_types=schema),
 )
