It seems that we should not deprecate {{read_feather}}/{{write_feather}} for reading/writing Feather V1/V2 files. We can just add {{read_ipc_file}}/{{write_ipc_file}}. So I think that we can close this and reuse ARROW-8324 for this. > [R] Rename *_feather functions > -- > > Key: ARROW-17072 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-17072 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: R >Affects Versions: 8.0.0 >Reporter: SHIMA Tatsuya >Priority: Major > > As noted in the following document, the recommended extension for IPC files > is now `.arrow`. > > We recommend the “.arrow” extension for files created with this format. > https://arrow.apache.org/docs/format/Columnar.html#ipc-file-format > However, the R library cannot read IPC files without using the `read_feather` > function after ARROW-16268. > I think users will be confused if you keep using this function name because > the word `feather' is not associated with `.arrow` for beginners. > For example, could we deprecate function `read_feather` and recommend another > function like `read_ipc_file`, which has the same functionality? > Note: This ticket was created as a result of a conversation with [~kou] on > Twitter. > https://twitter.com/ktou/status/1547373388687376386 -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
