dm 1.0.0

Features

• New dm_gui() for interactive editing of dm objects (#1076, #1319).

• dm_get_tables() and pull_tbl() gain a new keyed = FALSE argument. If set to TRUE, table objects of class "dm_keyed_tbl" are returned. These objects inherit from the underlying data structure (tibble or lazy table), keep track of primary and foreign keys, and can be used later on in a call to dm() to recreate a dm object with the keys (#1187).

• dm_examine_cardinalities() and dm_examine_constraints() are now stable with a new signature and a compatibility wrapper (#1193, #1195).

• dm_apply_filters(), dm_apply_filters_to_tbl() and dm_get_filters() are deprecated (#424, #426, #1236).

• dm_disambiguate_cols() adds table names as a suffix by default, and gains a .position argument to restore the original behavior. Arguments sep and quiet are renamed to .sep and .quiet (#1293, #1327).

• dm_squash_to_tbl() is deprecated in favor of the new .recursive argument to dm_flatten_to_tbl(). Arguments start and join are renamed to .start and .join (#1272, #1324).

• dm_rm_tbl() is deprecated in favor of dm_select_tbl() (#1275).

• dm_bind() and dm_add_tbl() are deprecated in favor of dm() (#1226).

• New dm_examine_cardinality() (#264, #735).
• New pack_join() generic and method for data frames, the same to tidyr::pack() as dplyr::nest_join() is to tidyr::nest() (#721, #722).
• dm_pixarfilms() is exported and gains a consistent = FALSE argument; if TRUE the data is modified so that all referential constraints are satisfied (#703, #707, #708, @erictleung).

Bug fixes

Features

• mutate(), transmute(), distinct() and summarize() now support dplyr::across() and extra arguments (#640).
• Key tracking for the first three verbs is less strict and based on name equality (#663).
• relocate() now works on zoomed dm objects (#666).
• dm_add_fk() gains on_delete argument which copy_dm_to() picks up and translates to an ON DELETE CASCADE or ON DELETE NO ACTION specification for the foreign key (#649).
• dm_copy_to() defines foreign keys during table creation, for all databases except DuckDB. Tables are created in topological order (#658). For cyclic relationship graphs, table creation is attempted in the original order and may fail (#664).
• waldo::compare() shows better output for dm objects (#642).
• dm_paste() output uses trailing commas in the dm::dm() and tibble::tibble() calls, and sorts column attributes by name, for better modularity (#641).

Breaking changes

• New db_schema_create(), db_schema_drop(), db_schema_exists() and db_schema_list() replace the corresponding sql_schema_*() functions, the latter are soft-deprecated (#670). The connection argument to db_schema_*() is called con, not dest (#668).

Internal

• Always run database tests on sqlite for df source.
• Establish compatibility with testthat > 3.0.2 (#566, @moodymudskipper).

dm 0.2.1

Breaking changes

• dm_get_all_fks() returns a data frame with a parent_key_cols instead of a parent_pk_cols column (introduced in dm 0.2.0), to reflect the fact that a foreign key no longer necessarily points to a primary key (#562).
• *_pk() and *_fk() functions now verify that the dots are actually empty (#536).
• dm_get_pk() is deprecated in favor of dm_get_all_pks() (#561).
• dm_has_fk() and dm_get_fk() are deprecated in favor of dm_get_all_fks() (#561).

Features

• dm_add_fk() gains ref_columns argument that supports creating foreign keys to non-primary keys (#402).
• dm_get_all_pks() gains table argument for filtering the returned primary keys (#560).
• dm_get_all_fks() gains parent_table argument for filtering the returned foreign keys (#560).
• dm_rm_fk() gains an optional ref_columns argument. This function now supports removal of multiple foreign keys filtered by parent or child table or columns, with a message (#559).
• dm_rm_pk() gains columns argument and allows filtering by columns and by tables or removing all primary keys. The rm_referencing_fks argument has been deprecated in favor of the new fail_fk argument (#558).
• dm_get_all_fks() has been optimized for speed and no longer sorts the keys (#560).
• dm operations are now slightly faster overall.

Internal

• The internal data structure for a dm object has changed to accommodate foreign keys to other columns than the primary key. An upgrade message is shown when working with a dm object from an earlier version, e.g. if it was loaded from a cache or an .rds file (#402).
• Drop "dm_v1" class from dm objects again, this would have made every S3 dispatch more costly. Relying on an internal "version" attribute instead (#547).

dm 0.2.0

Breaking changes

• Deprecate dm_get_src() tbl.dm(), src_tbls.dm(), copy_to.dm(). These functions have better alternatives and use the notion of a "data source" which is being phased out of dplyr (#527).
• *_pk() and *_fk() functions gain an ellipsis argument that comes before check, force and rm_referencing_fks arguments (#520).

Features

• dm_add_pk() and dm_add_fk() support compound keys via the c() notation, e.g. dm_add_pk(dm, table, c(col1, col2)). dm_nycflights13() returns a data model with compound keys by default. Use compound = FALSE to return the data model from dm v0.1.13 or earlier (#3).
• dm_get_all_fks() includes parent_pk_cols column that describes the primary key columns of the parent table (#335).
• dm_from_src() supports the schema argument also for MariaDB and MySQL databases (#516).
• dm objects now inherit from "dm_v1" in addition to "dm", to allow backward-compatible changes of the internal format (#521).
• Use hack to create compound primary keys on the database (#522).
• dm_examine_constraints() and other check functions count the number of rows that violate constraints for primary and foreign keys (#335).
• copy_dm_to(set_key_constraints = FALSE) downgrades unique indexes to regular indexes (#335).
• rows_truncate() implemented for data frames (#335).
• dm_enum_fk_candidates() enumerates column in the order they apper in the table (#335).

dm 0.1.13

Features

• dm_draw() gains column_types argument, if TRUE the column type is shown for each displayed column (#444, @samssann).
• copy_dm_to() gains schema argument (#432).
• dm_from_src() gains dbname argument for MSSQL (#472).

Bug fixes

• Fix rows_update() when multiple columns are updated (#488, @samssann).

Performance

• enum_fk_candidates() now only checks distinct values, this improves performance for large tables. As a consequence, only the number of distinct values is reported for mismatches, not the number of mismatching rows/entries (#494).

Documentation

• Fix description of filtering behavior in ?dm_zoom_to (#403).

Internal

• Move repository to https://github.com/cynkra/dm (#500).

Flattening with a right_join with more than two tables is not well-defined and gives an error (#62).
• Add a vignette for joining functions (#60, @cutterkom).
• Shorten message in cdm_disambiguate_cols().
