v0.54.1

Fixes

v0.54.0

The SIMD update.

Breaking

• Bumping MSRV to 1.83.0.
• Dropping xan plot -Y/--add-series. It is now possible to select multiple columns as <y> in xan plot <x> <y> instead.
• Dropping the -C/--force-colors flag in flatten, heatmap, hist, plot and view in favor of the more standardized and flexible --color=(auto|never|always) flag.
• xan join will now automatically drop joined columns from one the files when it is obviously safe to do so.
• xan behead & xan rename do not normalize the output anymore to be as fast as possible.
• The new SIMD CSV parser might not deal with CSV irregular cases the same way rust-csv did. In any case, xan input will still continue to use rust-csv.
• xan slice -B/--byte-offset & xan slice -A/--accumulate are now mutually exclusive.
• xan input has been overhauled.
• Dropping xan count --sample-size.
• Overhauling xan fixlengths to accept streams by shifting default from double-pass read to buffering the whole stream into memory.
• xan plot --x-scale log & --y-scale log are now natural log. Use log10 for the base10 log as before.
• Dropping xan reverse -m/--in-memory flag. Behavior is now automatically detected.
• Dropping xan shuffle -m/--in-memory flag. Loading the file into memory is now the default. The xan shuffle -e/--external flag has been added if
  you want the old default behavior.
• xan bins now outputs <empty> values instead of <nulls>.
• Overhauling xan bins. The default is now to find nice boundaries for the bins. Use -e/--exact to revert to the old behavior. The default number of bins is now 10, and won't use Freedman-Diaconis rule by default. A -H/--heuristic flag has been added if you want to automatically select a suitable number of bins.

Features

• Adding xan flatten -F/--flatter.
• xan pivot can now target multiple columns.
• Adding the xan grep command for fast but coarse filtering.
• Adding xan search -f/--flag.
• Adding xan map -F/--filter.
• xan search -B/--breakdown now consolidates the results when multiple patterns have a same name.
• Adding xan flatten --row-separator.
• Adding xan flatten --csv.
• Adding xan headers --color.
• Adding the xan join <columns> <input1> <input2> arity as a convenience when joined column names are the same in both inputs.
• Adding xan join -D/--drop-key=(none|both|left|right).
• Adding xan fuzzy-join -D/--drop-key=(none|both|left|right).
• Adding xan plot -A/--aggregate.
• Adding support for plural selection clauses in both xan select -e & xan map e.g. xan map 'full_name.split(" ") as (first_name, last_name).
• Adding xan search -P/--add-pattern.
• Adding xan groupby -M/--along-matrix.
• Adding xan groupby -T/--total.
• Adding support for .ndjson & .jsonl files. Those are considered as headless TSV files with null byte quoting so you can easily use them with xan commands.

• Adding a xan cat cols alias to xan cat columns.
• Adding zstd support.
• Adding earliest & latest moonblade functions.
• Adding xan dedup -f/--flag.
• Adding -k short flag for xan dedup --keep-duplicates, and -C short flag for xan dedup --choose.
• Adding xan fixlengths -H/--trust-header.
• Adding xan separate.
• Adding full log scale support to xan plot.
• Adding xan hist --scale.
• xan window is now able to run total aggregations.
• Adding thousands_sep, comma and significance kwargs to numfmt moonblade function.

Fixes

• Fixing xan dedup --check bug where the first record was ignored.
• Fixing xan hist -D when a same date is found multiple times.
• Fixing xan from -f xls datetime conversion.

• Improving performance of xan from -f txt & xan from -f npy.
• Improving memory footprint of hash-based commands (e.g. frequency, groupby, dedup etc.).
• Improving performance of xan progress, xan range, xan enum, xan behead, xan rename.

Quality of Life

• xan parallel cat now flushing more consistently.
• Better highlighting of problematic strings in xan flatten, xan view & xan headers.
• xan parallel will now generally stop as soon as an error is detected in a subprocess and cleanly report errors.
• Better argv parsing error UX in general.
• The -p flag will now avoid going further than 16 to avoid issues on server with many CPUs where hogging the resources is an issue and where using too much threads at once could hurt performance. The -t flag remain available to tweak the number of threads.
• xan hist will now dim bars having a 0 count so you can easily distinguish them from non-empty bars.
