ReleasePort's take

Light signal
editorial:auto 14d

The golden-suite release v0.2.1 now requires goldencheck version ≥ 3.0.0 and defaults to an Arrow‑native scan path, removing the mandatory Polars dependency.

Why it matters: If your project uses goldencheck, update its requirement to >=3.0.0; otherwise the default Arrow‑native mode eliminates the need for Polars integration.

Summary

AI summary

Minimum goldencheck version raised to >=3.0.0 with Arrow-native default and optional Polars support.

Full changelog

Lockstep follow-on to goldencheck 3.0.0 (now on PyPI).

  • goldencheck floor raised to goldencheck[polars]>=3.0.0. goldencheck 3.0.0 flips the default scan path to Arrow-native and Polars-free (pyarrow is a base dep); [polars] is kept for the scan_dataframe(pl.DataFrame) overload the bundled goldenmatch quality bridge uses.

Cut after goldencheck 3.0.0 landed on PyPI (member-on-PyPI-first).

Breaking Changes

  • Minimum required goldencheck version increased to >=3.0.0 (base dependency pyarrow added; polars support optional via goldencheck[polars])

  • vgoldencheck-v3.0.0 'inferred_type' now emits a neutral dtype vocabulary instead of raw Polars dtype strings.
  • vgoldencheck-v3.0.0 `scan_file`, `scan_dataframe`, and CLI `check` now run without Polars, using Arrow-native pyarrow.Table.
  • v3.0.0 Result frames now return pyarrow.Table instead of Polars DataFrame.
