Limitations
These constraints apply to Coral 0.7.45 with Chelis 0.18.13:
- Concatenation. Pass frames with the same ordered schema and row
count.
concatuses the first frame's columns without checking every later schema; extra columns in a later frame are omitted. See Concatenation. - File output. CSV and JSON writers do not encode integer missing-value masks. The JSON writer does not escape column names or string cells and cannot produce valid JSON for non-finite floats. The I/O chapter gives supported inputs.
- Column types. Bool columns cannot be group keys. Bool non-key
columns cannot pass through joins; inner and left joins also reject
bool keys.
pivotandmelttake float value columns and string id/index columns. String and bool columns have no missing marker. - Output conventions.
outer_joinreturns its key as a string column, whatever the input key type.from_columnsandemptyuse dictionary entry order for columns; usefrom_pairsfor explicit order. In a multi-aggregation, each value column can appear only once, and anAggCountspec needs a numeric value column. - Wide frames. Frames with 100 or more columns can be slow in the evaluator.
