additory

Elegant data operations for DataFrames

A Rust-powered Python library for intuitive data transformations, lookups, synthetic data generation, and DataFrame comparison — with Polars and Pandas.

Installation

pip install additory

Requirements: Python 3.9+ · Polars (required) · pyarrow (required) · Pandas (optional)

Quick Start

import additory as add
import polars as pl

Bring data from another DataFrame

orders = pl.DataFrame({'order_id': [1, 2], 'customer_id': [101, 102], 'amount': [250, 180]})
customers = pl.DataFrame({'customer_id': [101, 102], 'name': ['Alice', 'Bob']})

result = add.to(orders, customers, 'name', 'customer_id')

Transform data

df = pl.DataFrame({'price': [100, 200, 300], 'quantity': [2, 3, 1]})

result = add.transform('@calc', df, strategy={'total': 'price * quantity', 'tax': 'total * 0.1'})
result = add.transform('@filter', df, where='price > 150')
result = add.transform('@sort', df, by='price', strategy='desc')
result = add.transform('@aggregate', df, by='category', strategy={'price': 'sum'})

Generate synthetic data

result = add.synthetic('@new', n=1000, strategy={
    'age': 'normal(40, 10)',
    'salary': 'normal(75000, 15000)',
})

# Augment existing data
result = add.synthetic(df, n=100)

Compare DataFrames

diff = add.scan('@diff', old=df_jan, new=df_feb)

Use dynamic expressions

patients = pl.DataFrame({'weight': [70, 85], 'height': [1.70, 1.80]})
result = add.bmi(patients)

Pipe compatibility

result = (
    orders
    .pipe(add.to, customers, 'name', 'customer_id')
    .pipe(add.to, products, 'price', 'product_id')
)

Core Functions
