fjoin

Data frame joins leveraging data.table

Please view this page on the package website and head to the Get started guide next.

Description

Extends data.table join functionality, lets it work with any data frame class, and provides a familiar x/y-style interface, enabling broad use across R. Offers NA-safe matching by default, on-the-fly column selection, multiple match-handling on both sides, x or y row order, and a row origin indicator. Performs inner, left, right, full, semi- and anti-joins with equality and inequality conditions, plus cross joins. Specific support for data.table, (grouped) tibble, and sf/sfc objects and their attributes; returns a plain data frame otherwise. Avoids data-copying of inputs and outputs. Allows displaying the data.table code instead of (or as well as) executing it.
