Description of your pull request goes here. **Provide examples and/or screenshots** if your changes affect the user experience. --> Contrary to the underlying implementation in polars rust/python, `polars pivot` throws an error if the user tries to pivot on multiple columns of different types. This PR seeks to remove this type-check. See comparison below. ```nushell # Current implementation: throws error when pivoting on multiple values of different types. > [[name subject date test_1 test_2 grade_1 grade_2]; [Cady maths 2025-04-01 98 100 A A] [Cady physics 2025-04-01 99 100 A A] [Karen maths 2025-04-02 61 60 D D] [Karen physics 2025-04-02 58 60 D D]] | polars into-df | polars pivot --on [subject] --index [name] --values [test_1 grade_1] Error: × Merge error ╭─[entry #291:1:271] 1 │ [[name subject date test_1 test_2 grade_1 grade_2]; [Cady maths 2025-04-01 98 100 A A] [Cady physics 2025-04-01 99 100 A A] [Karen maths 2025-04-02 61 60 D D] [Karen physics 2025-04-02 58 60 D D]] | polars into-df | polars pivot --on [subject] --index [name] --values [test_1 grade_1] · ───────┬────── · ╰── found different column types in list ╰──── help: datatypes i64 and str are incompatible # Proposed implementation > [[name subject date test_1 test_2 grade_1 grade_2]; [Cady maths 2025-04-01 98 100 A A] [Cady physics 2025-04-01 99 100 A A] [Karen maths 2025-04-02 61 60 D D] [Karen physics 2025-04-02 58 60 D D]] | polars into-df | polars pivot --on [subject] --index [name] --values [test_1 grade_1] ╭───┬───────┬──────────────┬────────────────┬───────────────┬─────────────────╮ │ # │ name │ test_1_maths │ test_1_physics │ grade_1_maths │ grade_1_physics │ ├───┼───────┼──────────────┼────────────────┼───────────────┼─────────────────┤ │ 0 │ Cady │ 98 │ 99 │ A │ A │ │ 1 │ Karen │ 61 │ 58 │ D │ D │ ╰───┴───────┴──────────────┴────────────────┴───────────────┴─────────────────╯ ``` Additionally, this PR ports over the `separator` parameter in `pivot`, which allows the user to specify how to delimit multiple `values` column names: ```nushell > [[name subject date test_1 test_2 grade_1 grade_2]; [Cady maths 2025-04-01 98 100 A A] [Cady physics 2025-04-01 99 100 A A] [Karen maths 2025-04-02 61 60 D D] [Karen physics 2025-04-02 58 60 D D]] | polars into-df | polars pivot --on [subject] --index [name] --values [test_1 grade_1] --separator / ╭───┬───────┬──────────────┬────────────────┬───────────────┬─────────────────╮ │ # │ name │ test_1/maths │ test_1/physics │ grade_1/maths │ grade_1/physics │ ├───┼───────┼──────────────┼────────────────┼───────────────┼─────────────────┤ │ 0 │ Cady │ 98 │ 99 │ A │ A │ │ 1 │ Karen │ 61 │ 58 │ D │ D │ ╰───┴───────┴──────────────┴────────────────┴───────────────┴─────────────────╯ ``` # User-Facing Changes <!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This helps us keep track of breaking changes. --> Soft breaking change: where a user may have previously expected an error (pivoting on multiple columns with different types), no error is thrown. # Tests + Formatting <!-- Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes. Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands: - `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo fmt --all` applies these changes) - `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used` to check that you're using the standard code style - `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows make sure to [enable developer mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging)) - `cargo run -- -c "use toolkit.nu; toolkit test stdlib"` to run the tests for the standard library > **Note** > from `nushell` you can also use the `toolkit` as follows > ```bash > use toolkit.nu # or use an `env_change` hook to activate it automatically > toolkit check pr > ``` --> Examples were added to `polars pivot`. # After Submitting <!-- If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date. --> |
