A safejoin package was released on CRAN and it's NOT mine.

It does one of the things my package does, ensure that we don't create rows by joining on non unique keys, it has a function safe_left_join too.

I'll leave this one here in any case and my keep development here, if I finally get to the point of pushing to CRAN I'll need a new name however.

I would really appreciate it if you did change the name and ideally submitted the package. I just updated my installed packages and could not believe what safejoin had been "updated" to. Maybe unwisely, I've used your package in a lot of places, and it has saved my a** many, many times.

Ouch. saferjoin? I've also employed your package quite a bit. My org does a lot of munging of tabular data from lord knows where. Thank you for a great package!

moodymudskipper commented 3 years ago

I was actually thinking about the name {saferjoin}, so since you thought about it too I think I'll use it!

moodymudskipper commented 2 years ago

The new name will be {powerjoin}, the package is under development at : https://github.com/moodymudskipper/powerjoin

And I'm quite excited about it, there will still be breaking changes but don't hesitate to drop by on the repo and give feedback or suggestions. Now's the best time for feature requests if there's a join feature you've always dreamed of. This one will go to CRAN pinky swear.

{powerjoin} was released on CRAN!

I believe it can do pretty much everything that {safejoin} could, so you might want to switch.

I'm not nuking this repo but I'm closing all issues and probably soon replacing README by a simple link to the powerjoin repo. I have answered some questions on SO with safejoin so I'll fix those first.

Thanks for pushing me and sorry that it took me so long, better late than never I hope!
