tidytable 0.5.6

Breaking changes

• bind_cols.(): Name repair uses vec_as_names() instead of vec_as_names_legacy()

Functionality improvements

• bind_cols.(): Added .name_repair arg
• unnest.(): Added names_sep and names_repair args
• print()
  • Added n, width, and n_extra args
  • Now prints like tibbles in all cases (special thanks to @moutikabdessabour)
• slice.(): Can now drop specified rows with negative numbers

New functions

• arrange_across.()
• case_when.()
  • The old “case when” translation case.() will remain in the package, as it is called like data.table::fcase() but allows for the default to be a vector.
• desc.()

Functions with notable speed improvements

• slice.()

Deprecations

• unnest.(): .keep_all arg changed to .drop

tidytable 0.5.5

Breaking changes

• bind_rows.(): Removed .use_names and .fill args
  • These are now assumed to be TRUE, which matches dplyr semantics.
• complete.(): .fill arg renamed to fill
• pull.(): defaults to var = -1 instead of var = NULL
  • The result is the same when using the default value, but will break cases where var = NULL was explicitly called.
• slice.(): .by must be named when slicing by group

Functionality improvements

• tidytable now integrates better with tidyverse functions through vctrs. This means code such as vec_cbind(tibble::tibble(x = 1:3), tidytable(y = "foo")) will bind the results into a tidytable.
• complete.(): Can now append extra values
• pull.(): Numerical selection now works
• slice.(): Now uses ... to select which rows to slice

New functions

• semi_join.()

Bug fixes

• rename.(): Works when there are spaces in the column names (#109)

Functions with notable speed improvements

• replace_na.()

tidytable 0.5.4

Breaking changes

• Column names auto-generated by summarize_across.() now use a suffix instead of a prefix

Functionality improvements

• mutate_across.(): Added .names arg to help with naming newly created columns
• summarize_across.(): Added .names arg to help with naming newly created columns
• summarize.(): Added .sort arg to optionally sort the resulting data.table

Bug fixes

• transmute.(): Doesn’t drop “by” columns (#98)
• slice.()
  • Allows gaps in rows arg (#99)
  • Doesn’t reorder columns when using .by (#101)
• full_join.(): No longer returns a keyed data.table (#102)

Internal

• Import tibble
  • Enables cleaner console printing of tidytables
  • glimpse() is now reexported
  • Will be replaced by pillar in a later release once tibble::trunc_mat() & tibble::glimpse() are moved there

  • use.names arg renamed to .use_names
  • fill arg renamed to .fill

New functions

• complete.()

Deprecations

tidytable 0.5.2

Functions with notable speed improvements

tidytable 0.4.1

• tidytable now utilizes tidyselect & vctrs

Breaking changes

New functions

• desc.()

Functionality improvements
