Yes - I do not say that @linq
is broken. I am making a feature request 😄. Incidentally this request is needed with Lazy.jl because of groupby
name clash.
Let me explain the problem more explicitly. Assume you do not want to pollute a namespace for instance (which can be expected in production code) and use import
instead of using
. How would you use @linq
then?
julia> import DataFrames, DataFramesMeta
julia> x = DataFrames.DataFrame(rand(3,4))
3×4 DataFrames.DataFrame
│ Row │ x1 │ x2 │ x3 │ x4 │
├─────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┼──────────┤
│ 1 │ 0.789172 │ 0.2509 │ 0.107305 │ 0.504798 │
│ 2 │ 0.173546 │ 0.847316 │ 0.292337 │ 0.880935 │
│ 3 │ 0.304413 │ 0.460651 │ 0.368497 │ 0.581835 │
julia> DataFramesMeta.@linq x |> DataFrames.groupby(:x1)
ERROR: MethodError: Cannot `convert` an object of type Expr to an object of type DataFramesMeta.SymbolParameter
This may have arisen from a call to the constructor DataFramesMeta.SymbolParameter(...),
since type constructors fall back to convert methods.
whereas with using
you have:
julia> using DataFrames, DataFramesMeta
julia> @linq x |> groupby(:x1)
DataFrames.GroupedDataFrame 3 groups with keys: Symbol[:x1]
First Group:
1×4 DataFrames.SubDataFrame{Array{Int64,1}}
│ Row │ x1 │ x2 │ x3 │ x4 │
├─────┼──────────┼────────┼──────────┼──────────┤
│ 1 │ 0.789172 │ 0.2509 │ 0.107305 │ 0.504798 │

Last Group:
1×4 DataFrames.SubDataFrame{Array{Int64,1}}

So in short a feature request is for @linq
to properly resolve qualified function names in general (and groupby
is only a special case - coincidentally referred to in the documentation).
Of course - you might get name clash of any function you use in general (there is no guarantee that some other package does not use the same name for something else) - so I would find this general qualified name resolution functionality desirable.
from dataframesmeta.jl.
If I'm reading it right, @linq
works. It's use of Lazy that has the conflict. The main options I see are:
-
Remove all uses of Lazy from the docs/examples, and encourage
@linq
. -
Pull in
@>
from Lazy.
from dataframesmeta.jl.
Got it. That is a problem with @linq
. If you care to have a go at a fix, the following link shows where the appropriate code is. That needs to be generalized to handle qualified functions.
from dataframesmeta.jl.
In #95 I have proposed the fix.
