In mdsumner/sc: Common Forms for Complex Hierarchical and Relational Data Structures

pillar 1.4.4

• obj_sum() uses vctrs::vec_size() internally.

• is_vector_s3.default() is soft-deprecated and no longer used. Please ensure that vctrs::vec_is() is TRUE for your class.

• Rely on vctrs for type abbreviations.

pillar 1.4.3

• new_pillar_shaft_simple() gains na argument to control appearance of NA values.

• String columns are quoted if at least one value needs quotes (#171).

• Apply subtle style to list_of columns (#172).

• Fix formatting if mantissa is very close to 1 (#174).

• Use as.character() instead of as_character().

• Remove compatibility with testthat < 2.0.0.

pillar 1.4.2

• List columns are shown with their perceived dimensions, which may be different from those stored in the "dim" attribute. Regression introduced in 1.4.0 (#167).

• Add ellipsis to vec_ptype_abbr() method.

pillar 1.4.1

• More careful specification of minimum package versions for the dependencies (#165).
• Fix type_sum.vctrs_vctr() that also led to a NOTE in R CMD check.
• Resolve vec_is() at runtime instead of during .onLoad() (#163, @lionel-).
• Implement methods for vctrs objects.

pillar 1.4.0

Breaking changes

• type_sum() forwards to vctrs::vec_ptype_abbr() (#134). This makes sure that list_of columns (for values of the same type) are properly displayed. The value returned for factor and complex remains unchanged, because this will change in vctrs.
• The class argument to new_pillar_shaft() deprecates the existing subclass argument. Passing a subclass argument leads to a warning once per session (#157).

Output

• Removed extra space for pillars with a negative value of lower magnitude than the largest positive value (example: -1 and 23).
• 0-col tibble and matrix columns are now formatted with a capital containing [,0] and an empty shaft (#149).

Performance

• squeeze() is now faster (because the width computation in pillar_shaft.numeric() now uses more arithmetics instead of string concatenation). Further speedups may require implemetation of crucial parts in C (#147).
• Styling output is faster: an expensive check for availability of colored output is carried out only once per call to colonnade(), and styling is implemented manually (#133, @jimhester).

Internal

• All internal S3 classes have the pillar_ prefix (#156).
• Only check native output on Windows, due to subtle differences when running on Linux in a latin1 locale.

pillar 1.3.1

Bug fixes

• Fix off-by-one error in distribution of empty space (#141).

Visible changes

• NA in names is no longer escaped with backticks.
• Don't add quotes for pillars formatted with their format() method (tidyverse/tibble#448).

Internal changes

• Update base type abbrevs to rlang 0.3.0 (#140, @lionel-).
• Tests work again in a 256-color terminal (#129).

pillar 1.3.0

Visible changes

• Unknown data types are formatted using format(), not as.character() (#120).

• Multi-tier colonnades can always fill the last tier, even if the width isn't a proper multiple of getOption("width"). (Example: options(width = 80, tibble.width = 200) will print a wide tibble in three tiers, each 80 characters wide, with a total width of 240 characters.)

• Fixed mixed formatting (showing some pillars with maximum, and some with minimum width). If a pillar's minimum width is smaller than getOption("width"), it is shown nevertheless, abbreviated with dots if necessary.

Interface changes

• format_type_sum() gains width argument (#73).

Performance improvements

• Printing large multi-tier colonnades is much faster, the code that distributes pillars over tiers uses a much simpler and much faster algorithm (tidyverse/tibble#422).

• Printing is now faster overall, because less work is done for formatting in "subtle" style (gray of a fixed level), and because fansi::strip_sgr() is used instead of crayon::strip_style().

• Slightly faster printing of colonnades by reusing an intermediate result.

Internal

• pillar() no longer adds backticks if title is non-syntactic.

• colonnade() supports data frames and matrices. When printing, each sub-column is shown individually, using a title that resembles the syntax used to access it. Also supports recursively nested data frames (with data frame or matrix columns).

• Added fuzz tests for character colonnades of varying widths.

• Use fansi::substr_ctl() in favor of crayon::col_substr().

pillar 1.2.3

• Eliminate CRAN check warning about undeclared withr dependency.
• More defensive test to address CRAN check failures on Solaris.
• colonnade() now handles pillars named "sep" (#115).
• pillar_shaft.character() gains min_width argument.

pillar 1.2.2

• Whole numbers are printed without a decimal dot again. Numbers that are the result of a whole number divided by a power of 10 (subject to a tolerance to account for floating-point imprecision) are shown without trailing decimal zeros, even if these zeros are significant according to the pillar.sigfig option (#105).
• New new_pillar_title() and new_pillar_type() to support consistent output in glimpse() (#31).
• New format_type_sum() generic that allows overriding the formatting of the type summary in the capital (#73).
• The digits.secs option is respected when computing the width for date-time values (#102).

pillar 1.2.1

Display

• Turned off using subtle style for digits that are considered insignificant. Negative numbers are shown all red. Set the new option pillar.subtle_num to TRUE to turn it on again (default: FALSE).
• The negation sign is printed next to the number again (#91).
• Scientific notation uses regular digits again for exponents (#90).
• Groups of three digits are now underlined, starting with the fourth before/after the decimal point. This gives a better idea of the order of magnitude of the numbers (#78).
• Logical columns are displayed as TRUE and FALSE again (#95).
• The decimal dot is now always printed for numbers of type numeric. Trailing zeros are not shown anymore if all displayed numbers are whole numbers (#62).
• Decimal values longer than 13 characters always print in scientific notation.

Bug fixes

• Numeric values with a "class" attribute (e.g., Duration from lubridate) are now formatted using format() if the pillar_shaft() method is not implemented for that class (#88).
• Very small numbers (like 1e-310) are now printed corectly (tidyverse/tibble#377).
• Fix representation of right-hand side for getOption("pillar.sigfig") >= 6 (tidyverse/tibble#380).
• Fix computation of significant figures for numbers with absolute value >= 1 (#98).

New functions

• New styling helper style_subtle_num(), formatting depends on the pillar.subtle_num option.

pillar 1.1.0

• NA values are now shown in plain red, without changing the background color (#70).
• New options to control the output, with defaults that match the current behavior unless stated otherwise:
  • pillar.sigfig to control the number of significant digits, for highlighting and truncation (#72),
  • pillar.subtle to specify if insignificant digits should be printed in gray (#72),
  • pillar.neg to specify if negative digits should be printed in red,
  • pillar.bold to specify if column headers should be printed in bold (default: FALSE, #76),
  • pillar.min_title_chars to specify the minimum number of characters to display for each column name (default: 15 characters, #75).
• Shortened abbreviations for types: complex: cplx -> cpl, function: fun -> fn, factor: fctr -> fct (#71).
• Date columns now show sub-seconds if the digits.secs option is set (#74).
• Very wide tibbles now print faster (#85).

pillar 1.0.1

• Work around failing CRAN tests on Windows.
