tidypolars (development version)

New features

Added support for stringr::str_replace_na() (#153).
Better checks for unknown and unsupported arguments in compute(), collect(), *_join(), pivot_*(), sink_*(), slice_sample() and uncount()(#158, thanks @fkohrt for the report). Now, when those functions receive:
- an argument that exists in the tidyverse implementation but not supported by tidypolars, they warn the user. This default behaviour can be changed to error instead with options(tidypolars_unknown_args = "error").
- an argument that doesn't exist at all, they error.
Add support for argument explicit in tidyr::complete().

Bug fixes

Fix edge cases in the tidypolars implementation of stringr::str_sub() and substr() compared to their original implementation (#159).

tidypolars 0.12.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.21.0.

Breaking changes

summarize() now drops the last group of the output by default (for consistency with dplyr). Previously it kept the same groups as in the input data (#149).

New features

Add support for argument .groups in summarize(). Value "rowwise" is not supported for now (#149).
Added support for dplyr::lead(). In dplyr::lead() and dplyr::lag(), the arguments default and order_by are now supported (#151).

tidypolars 0.11.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.20.0.

Breaking changes

arrange() now errors with unknown variable names (like dplyr::arrange()). Previously, unknown variables were silently ignored. Using expressions (like a + b) is now accepted (#144).
The parameter inherit_optimization is removed from all sink_*() functions.

New features

The power operators ^ and ** now work.
New function sink_ndjson() to write the results of a lazy query to a NDJSON file without collecting it in memory.
inner_join() now accepts inequality joins in the by argument, including the following helpers: between(), overlaps(), within() (#148).

Bug fixes

Using an external object in case_when(), ifelse() and ifelse() now works.
str_sub() doesn't error anymore when start is positive and end is negative.
read_*_polars() functions used to return a standard data.frame by mistake. They now return a Polars DataFrame.
Using [ for subsetting in expressions now works. Thanks @ginolhac for the report (#141).
bind_cols_polars() and bind_rows_polars() now error (as expected before) if elements are a mix of Polars DataFrames and LazyFrames.

tidypolars 0.10.1

Bug fixes

Do not error when handling columns with datatype Null. Note that converting those columns to R with as.data.frame(), as_tibble(), or collect() is still an issue as of polars 0.19.1.

tidypolars 0.10.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.19.1.

Breaking changes and deprecations

describe() is deprecated as of tidypolars 0.10.0 and will be removed in a future update. Use summary() with the same arguments instead (#127).
describe_plan() and describe_optimized_plan() are deprecated as of tidypolars 0.10.0 and will be removed in a future update. Use explain() with optimized = TRUE/FALSE instead (#128).
In sink_parquet() and sink_csv(), all arguments except for .data and path must be named (#136).

New features

Add support for more functions:
- from package base: substr().
Better error message when a function can come from several packages but only one version is translated (#130).
row_number() now works without argument (#131).
New functions to import data as Polars DataFrames and LazyFrames (#136):
- read_<format>_polars() to import data as a Polars DataFrame;
- scan_<format>_polars() to import data as a Polars LazyFrame;
- <format> can be "csv", "ipc", "json", "parquet".
Those can replace functions from polars. For example, polars::pl$read_parquet(...) can be replaced by read_parquet_polars(...).
New functions to write Polars DataFrames to external files: write_<format>_polars() where <format> can be "csv", "ipc", "json", "ndjson", "parquet" (#136).
New function sink_ipc() that is similar to sink_parquet() and sink_csv() but for IPC files (#136).
across() now throws a better error message when the user passes an external list to .fns. This works with dplyr but cannot work with tidypolars (#135).
Added support for argument .add in group_by().

Bug fixes

stringr::str_sub() now works when both start and end are negative.
Fixed a bug in str_sub() when start was greater than 1.
stringr::str_starts() and stringr::str_ends() now work with a regex.
fill() doesn't error anymore when ... is empty. Instead, it returns the input data.
unite() now provides a proper error message when col is missing.
unite() doesn't error anymore when ... is empty. Instead, it uses all variables in the dataset.
filter(), mutate() and summarize() now work when using a column from another data.frame, e.g.
```
my_polars_df |> 
  filter(x %in% some_data_frame$y)
```
replace_na() no longer converts the column to the datatype of the replacement, e.g. data |> replace_na("a") will error if the input data is numeric.
n_distinct() now correctly applies the na.rm argument when several columns are passed as input (#137).

tidypolars 0.9.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.18.0.

New features

Add support for several functions:
- from package base: %% and %/%.
- from package dplyr: dense_rank(), row_number().
- from package lubridate: wday().
Better handling of missing values to match R behavior. In the following functions, if there is at least one missing value and na.rm = FALSE (the default), then the output will be NA: max(), mean(), median(), min(), sd(), sum(), var() (#120).
New argument cluster_with_columns in collect(), compute(), and fetch().
Add a global option tidypolars_unknown_args to control what happens when tidypolars doesn't know how to handle an argument in a function. The default is to warn and the only other accepted value is "error".

Bug fixes

count() and add_count() no longer overwrite a variable named n if the argument name is unspecified.

tidypolars 0.8.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.17.0.

Breaking changes

As announced in tidypolars 0.7.0, the behavior of collect() has changed. It now returns a standard R data.frame and not a Polars DataFrame anymore. Replace collect() by compute() (with the same arguments) to keep the old behavior.
In bind_rows_polars(), if .id is passed, the resulting column now is of type character instead of integer.

New features

Add support for several functions:
- from package base: all(), any(), diff(), ISOdatetime(), length(), rev(), unique().
- from package dplyr: consecutive_id(), min_rank(), na_if(), n_distinct(), nth().
- from package lubridate: make_datetime().
- from package stringr: str_dup(), str_split(), str_split_i(), str_trunc().
- from package tidyr: replace_na() (the data.frame method was already translated but not the vector one that can be used in mutate() for example).
It is now possible to use explicit namespaces (such as dplyr::first() instead of first()) in mutate(), summarize() and filter() (#114).
In bind_rows_polars(), if all elements are named and .id is specified, the .id column will use the names of the elements (#116).
It is now possible to rename variables in select() (#117).
Add support for argument na_matches in all join functions (except cross_join() that doesn't need it) (#109).

Bug fixes

Local variables in custom functions could not be used in tidypolars functions (reported in a blog post of Art Steinmetz). This is now fixed.
across() now works when .cols contains only one variable and .fns contains only one function.

In across(), the .cols argument now takes into account variables created in the same mutate() or summarize() call before across().

as_polars_df(mtcars) |> 
  head(n = 3) |> 
  mutate(
    foo = 1, 
    across(.cols = contains("oo"), \(x) x - 1)
  )

shape: (3, 12)
┌──────┬─────┬───────┬───────┬───┬─────┬──────┬──────┬─────┐
│ mpg  ┆ cyl ┆ disp  ┆ hp    ┆ … ┆ am  ┆ gear ┆ carb ┆ foo │
│ ---  ┆ --- ┆ ---   ┆ ---   ┆   ┆ --- ┆ ---  ┆ ---  ┆ --- │
│ f64  ┆ f64 ┆ f64   ┆ f64   ┆   ┆ f64 ┆ f64  ┆ f64  ┆ f64 │
╞══════╪═════╪═══════╪═══════╪═══╪═════╪══════╪══════╪═════╡

└──────┴─────┴───────┴───────┴───┴─────┴──────┴──────┴─────┘

Note that the where() function is not supported here. For example:

as_polars_df(mtcars) |> 
  mutate(
    foo = 1, 
    across(.cols = where(is.numeric), \(x) x - 1)
  )

will not return 0 for the variable foo. A warning is emitted about this behavior.

Better handling of negative values in c() when called in mutate() and summarize().

tidypolars 0.7.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.16.0.

Breaking changes and deprecations

as_polars() is now removed. It was deprecated in 0.6.0. Use as_polars_df() or as_polars_lf() instead.
to_r() is now removed. It was deprecated in 0.6.0. Use as.data.frame() or as_tibble() instead.
For consistency with dplyr, the behavior of collect() will change in 0.8.0 as it will perform the lazy query and convert the result to a standard data.frame. For now, collect() only throws a warning about this future change. It is recommended to use compute() to only perform the query and get a Polars DataFrame as output (#101).

New features

Several improvements and changes for pivot_wider() (#95):
- names_from can now takes several variables;
- add support for id_cols and names_glue;
- default value of names_sep now is _, for consistency with tidyr;
- fix documentation as pivot_wider() doesn't work on LazyFrame.
Add support for stringr::regex(). Note that only the argument ignore_case is supported for now (#97).
Add support for several lubridate functions: dweeks(), ddays(), dhours(), dminutes(), dseconds(), dmilliseconds(), make_date() (#107).
When a polars function called internally fails, the original error message is now displayed.
Add support for group_split() (for DataFrame only).
Add support for argument relationship in left_join(), right_join(), full_join() and inner_join() (#106).

tidypolars 0.6.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.15.0.

Breaking changes and deprecations

as_polars() is deprecated and will be removed in 0.7.0. Use as_polars_lf() or as_polars_df() instead.
as_polars() doesn't have an argument with_string_cache anymore. When set to TRUE, this enabled the string cache globally, which could lead to undesirable side effects.
to_r() is deprecated and will be removed in 0.7.0. Use as.data.frame() or as_tibble() instead. This used to silently return a LazyFrame if the input was LazyFrame. It now automatically collects the LazyFrame (#88).
pull() nows automatically collects input LazyFrame (#89).

New features

Add support for argument .keep in mutate() (#80).
Add support for group_vars() and group_keys() (#81).
Experimental support of rowwise(). For now, this is limited to a few functions: mean(), median(), min(), max(), sum(), all(), any(). rowwise() and group_by() cannot be used at the same time (#40).
All functions that return a polars Data/LazyFrame now add the class "tidypolars" to the output (#86).
Support which.min(), which.max(), dplyr::n().
Support .data[[ and .env[[ in addition to .data$ and .env$. Better error messages when the objects specified in .data or .env don't exist.

Bug fixes

pull() now errors when var is of length > 1.

tidypolars 0.5.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.12.0.

Breaking changes

across() now errors if the argument .cols is not provided (either named or unnamed). This behavior was deprecated in dplyr 1.1.0.
It is no longer possible to use ! in arrange() to sort by decreasing order, for compatibility with dplyr::arrange(). Use - or desc() instead.

New features

summarize() now works on ungrouped data and returns a 1-row output.
It is now possible to use desc(x1) in arrange() to sort in decreasing order of x1 (this is equivalent to -x1).
Add support for argument names_prefix in pivot_longer().
Add support for arguments names_prefix and names_sep in pivot_wider().
Add support for tidyr::uncount().
All *_join() functions now work when by is a specification created by dplyr::join_by(). Notice that this is limited to equality joins for now.
You can now use the "embrace" operator {{ }} to pass unquoted column names (among other things) as arguments of custom functions. See the "Programming with dplyr" vignette for some examples.
bind_cols_polars() now works with two LazyFrames, but not more.
Add support for argument .name_repair in bind_cols_polars() (#74).
Support for .env$ and .data$ pronouns in expressions of filter(), mutate() and summarize().
Support named vector in the argument pattern of str_replace_all(), where names are patterns and values are replacements.
Using %in% for factor variables doesn't require enabling the string cache anymore.

Bug fixes

summarize() no longer errors when across(everything(), ...) is used with .by.
All *_join() functions no longer error when a named vector is provided in the argument by.
Expressions with values only are not named "literal" anymore.

Misc

Simplify the procedure to support new functions.

tidypolars 0.4.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.11.0.

Breaking changes

It is no longer possible to pass a list in rename().

New features

The argument with_string_cache in as_polars() now enables the string cache globally if set to TRUE (#54).
Better error message in filter() when comparing factors to strings while the string cache is disabled.
Basic support for strptime(). It is possible to use strptime(*, strict = FALSE) to not error when the parsing of some characters fails.
New argument .by in filter(), mutate(), and summarize(), and new argument by in the slice_*() functions. This allows to do operations on groups without using group_by() and ungroup(). See the dplyr vignette for more information (#59).
rename() now accepts unquoted names both old and new names.
Support fixed regexes in str_detect() (using fixed()) and in grepl() (using fixed = TRUE).

Bug fixes

Improve robustness of sequential expressions in mutate() and summarize() (i.e expressions that should be run one after the other because they depend on variables created in the same call) (#58).
relocate() now works correctly when .after = last_col().
All functions that work on grouped data now correctly restore the groups structure (#62).

Misc

Error messages coming from mutate(), summarize(), and filter() now give the right function call.
Faster tidy selection (#61).

tidypolars 0.3.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.10.0.

Breaking changes

All functions starting with pl_ have been removed to the benefit of the S3 methods. For example, pl_distinct() doesn't exist anymore so the only way to use it is to load dplyr and to use distinct() on a Polars DataFrame or LazyFrame. This is to avoid confusion about compatibility with dplyr and tidyr. See #49 for a more detailed explanation.
pl_bind_rows() and pl_bind_cols() are renamed bind_rows_polars() and bind_cols_polars() respectively. This is because bind_rows() and bind_cols() are not S3 methods (this might change in future versions of dplyr).

New features

New function duplicated_rows() that is the opposite of distinct() (#50).
New argument .id in bind_rows_polars().
bind_rows_polars() can now bind Data/LazyFrames that don't have the same schema. Columns will be upcast to common types if necessary. Unknown columns will be filled with NA.

Bug fixes

complete() now works correctly on grouped data.

Misc

relig_income and fish_encounters are not reexported anymore since tidyr is now imported.

tidypolars 0.2.0

tidypolars requires polars >= 0.9.0.

New features

Rename pl_fetch() to fetch().
New functions supported: describe(), sink_csv(), slice_sample().
New argument fill in pl_complete().
Support stringr::str_to_title() and tools::toTitleCase().
Support stringr::fixed() to use literal strings.
Support replacements with captured groups like \\1 in stringr::str_replace() and stringr::str_replace_all().

Bug fixes

sink_parquet() didn't use the user inputs (apart from the path).

Misc

Clearer error message when an expression contains <pkg>::. This is not supported for now but could potentially be implemented later.
pl_colnames() is no longer exported.

tidypolars 0.1.0

New features

Support as.numeric(), as.character(), as.logical(), grepl(), and paste() in expressions in pl_filter(), pl_mutate() and pl_summarize().
Support sink_parquet() (#38).
Support fetch() (#42).
Support for additional stringr functions: str_detect(), str_extract_all(), str_pad(), str_squish(), str_trim(), word() (some arguments or corner cases are not supported yet).
Add all optimization parameters in collect().

Bug fixes

Fix pl_mutate() and pl_summarize() when expressions use some variables previously created or modified (#10, #37).
Fix bug in pl_filter() when passing a vector in the RHS of %in%.

Misc

Improve the backend to translate R expressions into Polars expressions. This also led to a complete rewriting of the vignette "R and Polars expressions" (#27).
Error messages should now report the correct function call.
Improve CI coverage (#35).
