polars.LazyFrame.columns

property LazyFrame.columns: list[str]

Get the column names.

Returns:

list of str

A list containing the name of each column in order.

Warning

Determining the column names of a LazyFrame requires resolving its schema, which is a potentially expensive operation. Using collect_schema() is the idiomatic way of resolving the schema. This property exists only for symmetry with the DataFrame class.
