poseidon-framework / qjanno Goto Github PK

Some ToDos before I forget them

• qjanno should recognize empty values ("" and "n/a") correctly and store them as NULL in the SQL table. After this change the detection of integers/floats should hopefully work correctly
• qjanno should offer a mechanism to discover available columns (so, column names) more easily
• qjanno could offer forgeScript output to allow for pipelines of the form qjanno -> trident forge
• qjanno could offer table-layout output

As observed here, the naive approach to find and load all .janno files (with the d() pseudo-function) became increasingly less useful with the recent changes to trident. It is now increasingly more likely that users maintain archives with multiple package versions.

I think we should switch to the mechanism used by trident: Search for POSEIDON.yml files and load the .janno files with the relative paths in them. This can be done in a much more minimal way compared to trident, but it should include a filter operation to only consider the latest versions for a given package.
