Changelog

Source: NEWS.md

nodbi 0.12.0.9000

Improvements

  • Prepare docdb_query() for duckdb 1.3.0 (e.g., use new json_tree function)
  • Move warning for non-persitent connections to src_sqlite, src_duckdb calls
  • Harmomise printing connections

nodbi 0.12.0

CRAN release: 2025-03-30

Improvements

  • Use duckdb internal function for writing NDJSON to file
  • Removing message about RSQLite handling NDJSON file name as value

nodbi 0.11.0

CRAN release: 2024-11-10

Potentially breaking changes

  • docdb_query() modified so that it returns a data frame, in which each column has just one type (atomic or list) across all the rows of the respective column (previously, e.g. a mix of single-item lists simplified to atomic values and of multi-item lists were returned)

Changes

  • docdb_create() and docdb_update() for SQLite and PostgreSQL (only if on localhost) now import directly and fast from ndjson files, in analogy to DuckDB (needs RSQLite >= 2.3.7.9014)
  • Refactored docdb_update() for src_couchdb()
  • Add message from docdb_create() if a data frame has column names with a dot(s) since dots in nodbi are used for JSON dot paths
  • Add code to check database backend version requirements
  • Adding info if PostgreSQL database is not yet created
  • Factored out further code

nodbi 0.10.1

CRAN release: 2024-02-04

Bug fix

nodbi 0.10.0

CRAN release: 2024-01-21

Deprecated

  • empty parameter query now triggers a warning as it should be a valid JSON string; change query = "" into query = "{}"

Changes

  • adapted to use new, faster JSONB functions in SQLite 3.45.0 (RSQLite >= 2.3.4.9005)
  • refactored parts of docdb_create() to speed up handling large data frames and lists
  • made Elasticsearch to immediately refresh index after docdb_create() and other functions
  • docdb_update() now reports which records failed to update and then continues
  • docdb_delete() now returns harmonised success logical value across backends

Potentially breaking change

docdb_query() reimplementation to have the same functionality across all databases (DuckDB, SQLite, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Elasticsearch, CouchDB); even though the API and unit tests remained, user provisions may break e.g. to handle return values of databases that previously were incompletely implemented (in particular Elasticsearch and CouchDB). Details:

  • query can now be complex (nested, various operators) and is digested with a Javascript helper
  • fields can now be nested fields (e.g., friends.name) to directly return values lifted from the nested field
  • listfields parameter newly implemented to return dot paths for all fields of all or selected documents in collection
  • expanded use of jq via jqr for mangling parameters, selecting documents, filtering fields and lifting nested field values
  • if no data are found, returns NULL (previously some backends returned an empty data frame)
  • docdb_query(src, key, query = "{}", fields = "{}") now delegates to docdb_get(src, key)
  • _id is always returned, unless specified with "_id": 0 in parameter fields
  • for scr_postgres, only fewer than 50 fields if any can be specified in fields
  • for src_sqlite, minimise the use of the time-costly json_tree
  • workaround for path collisions of MongoDB
  • some acceleration of docdb_query()
  • factored out common code
  • expanded testing
  • updated docs
