This post has referred to a vignette from dplyr, you can
find it in https://dplyr.tidyverse.org/articles/two-table.html.
We’ll try to display how to join data tables in this vignette. First,
load the packages we need and get some data.
library(tidyfst)
library(nycflights13)
flights2 <- flights %>%
select_dt(year,month,day, hour, origin, dest, tailnum, carrier)Do a left join with a simple:
flights2 %>%
left_join_dt(airlines)
#> Joining by: carrier
#> Key: <carrier>
#> carrier year month day hour origin dest tailnum
#> <char> <int> <int> <int> <num> <char> <char> <char>

df1 <- data.frame(x = c(1, 1, 2), y = 1:3)
df2 <- data.frame(x = c(1, 1, 2), z = c("a", "b", "a"))

#> 5: 2 3 aThe “_dt” suffix should remind you that this is backed up by
data.table and will always return a data.table in the
end.
Filtering joins have also been supported in tidyfst.

anti_join_dt() never duplicate; they only ever remove
observations.):
df1 <- data.frame(x = c(1, 1, 3, 4), y = 1:4)
df2 <- data.frame(x = c(1, 1, 2), z = c("a", "b", "a"))
# Four rows to start with:
df1 %>% nrow()
#> [1] 4
# And we get four rows after the join
df1 %>% inner_join_dt(df2, by = "x") %>% nrow()
#> [1] 4
# But only two rows actually match
df1 %>% semi_join_dt(df2, by = "x") %>% nrow()
#> [1] 2For set operations, wrap data.table’s function directly,
but the functions will automatically turn any data.frame into
data.table. Examples are listed as below:
x = iris[c(2,3,3,4),]
x2 = iris[2:4,]
y = iris[c(3:5),]
