New Features
- Restored WebSocket support. The
WSClient / WSServer classes and the rayforce.network.websocket module are back (they were removed in 2.0.0). The server is an async Python implementation, built on the websockets library, that evaluates Rayforce queries in-process. Install with the websocket extra (pip install rayforce-py[websocket]). See the WebSocket guide.
- Added the PyArrow plugin.
from_arrow() converts a pyarrow.Table into a Rayforce Table, mirroring the Polars / Pandas plugins. A column of strings maps to String by default, or to Symbol via the opt-in strings_as_symbols=True flag. Requires the parquet extra (pip install rayforce-py[parquet]).
Bug fixes
- Fixed mis-scaled Parquet timestamps.
load_parquet() now reads microsecond- and millisecond-precision timestamp columns at the correct precision; previously non-nanosecond units were mis-scaled. Parquet reading now shares the PyArrow plugin's conversion path.
