duckplyr 1.0.0 (2025-02-02)

Features

Large data

• Improved support for handling large data from files and S3: ingestion with read_parquet_duckdb() and others, and materialization with as_duckdb_tibble(), compute.duckplyr_df() and compute_file(). See vignette("large") for details.

• Control automatic materialization of duckplyr frames with the new prudence argument to as_duckdb_tibble(), duckdb_tibble(), compute.duckplyr_df() and compute_file(). See vignette("prudence") for details.

New functions

• read_csv_duckdb() and others, deprecating duckplyr_df_from_csv() and df_from_csv() (#210, #396, #459).

• read_sql_duckdb() (experimental) to run SQL queries against the default DuckDB connection and return the result as a duckplyr frame (duckdb/duckdb-r#32, #397).

• db_exec() to execute configuration queries against the default duckdb connection (#39, #165, #227, #404, #459).

• duckdb_tibble() (#382, #457).

• as_duckdb_tibble(), replaces as_duckplyr_tibble() and as_duckplyr_df() (#383, #457) and supports dbplyr connections to a duckdb database (#86, #211, #226).

• compute_parquet() and compute_csv(), implement compute.duckplyr_df() (#409, #430).

• fallback_config() to create a configuration file for the settings that do not affect behavior (#216, #426).

• is_duckdb_tibble(), deprecates is_duckplyr_df() (#391, #392).

• last_rel() to retrieve the last relation object used in materialization (#209, #375).

• Add "prudent_duckplyr_df" class that stops automatic materialization and requires collect() (#381, #390).

Translations

• Partial support for across() in mutate() and summarise() (#296, #306, #318, @lionel-, @DavisVaughan).

• Implement na.rm handling for sum(), min(), max(), any() and all(), with fallback for window functions (#205, #566).

• Add support for sub() and gsub() (@toppyy, #420).

• Handle dplyr::desc() (#550).

• Avoid forwarding is.na() to is.nan() to support non-numeric data, avoid checking roundtrip for timestamp data (#482).

• Correctly handle missing values in if_else().

• Limit number of items that can be handled with %in% (#319).

• duckdb_tibble() checks if columns can be represented in DuckDB (#537).

• Fall back to dplyr when passing multiple with joins (#323).

Error messages

• Improve fallback error message by explicitly materializing (#432, #456).

• Point to the native CSV reader if encountering data frames read with readr (#127, #469).

• Improve as_duckdb_tibble() error message for invalid x (@maelle, #339).

Behavior

• Depend on dplyr instead of reexporting all generics (#405). Nothing changes for users in scripts. When using duckplyr in a package, you now also need to import dplyr.

• Fallback logging is now on by default, can be disabled with configuration (#422).

• The default DuckDB connection is now based on a file, the location defaults to a subdirectory of tempdir() and can be controlled with the DUCKPLYR_TEMP_DIR environment variable (#439, #448, #561).

• collect() returns a tibble (#438, #447).

• explain() returns the input, invisibly (#331).

Bug fixes

• Compute ptype only for join columns in a safe way without materialization, not for the entire data frame (#289).

• Internal expr_scrub() (used for telemetry) can handle function-definitions (@toppyy, #268, #271).

• Harden telemetry code against invalid arguments (#321).

Documentation

• New articles: vignette("large"), vignette("prudence"), vignette("fallback"), vignette("limits"), vignette("developers"), vignette("telemetry") (#207, #504).

• New flights_df() used instead of palmerpenguins::penguins (#408).

• Move to the tidyverse GitHub organization, new repository URL https://github.com/tidyverse/duckplyr/ (#225).

• Avoid base pipe in examples for compatibility with R 4.0.0 (#463, #466).

Performance

• Comparison expressions are translated in a way that allows them to be pushed down to Parquet (@toppyy, #270).

• Printing a duckplyr frame no longer materializes (#255, #378).

• Prefer vctrs::new_data_frame() over tibble() (#500).
