Surface Python warnings without having to enable debugging

I think it would be very helpful for developing data functions if we could surface warnings without involving the debugging feature. Sometimes for instance there is a call to an API and that call may fail; one way of designing the code would be to...

Embedding Data Functions

We use Data Functions from our server library to quickly add features to new DXP files. The issue we are having is once you add a data function to a new DXP file it keeps the server path. If someone make a change to the function and then saves, it...

Allow users to unhook embedded data function from Spotfire library

If a user has a dxp file containing an embedded TERR data function that is synchronized with the Spotfire library, the path to the library is visible in the Data Function Properties dialog. If the user makes a change to the local copy and saves wi...

Provide and match default input and output handlers for Data Functions

WHAT: Currently a Data Function author much specify the inputs and outputs for the Data Function, and that information is included in the Data Function definition. However, when a data function is added to a DXP (whether from a .dfd file or the Li...

Synchronize Data Functions with copy in library

Once a data function is loaded into a DXP from a file, it is impossible to then synchronize/link that data function with a known identical copy in the library. Would be useful to be able to re-establish this link, once it is broken. (Each copy has...

Keep old output columns when adding new output columns in data function

Say we have a data function that has column A as output. When the script is altered and a new column B is added as output, then an additional column A is added along with the new column B. However, as calculated columns etc. might depend on the ol...

Duplicate Data Function definition

Sometimes, I want to register a data function with a script that is already present in the analysis but slightly different parameters. For this, I have to register a new data function and select all the input/output parameters again. "Copy" in the...

Python Data Function - Add Row Number

Display row numbers for Python scripts in the Edit Script workspace. This is present in R data functions but I don't see it when writing a Python function. This is useful for debugging code with the referenced line numbers.

Add Run Button to GUI

Add run script button to any GUI where appropriate. For instance, when I am writing IronPython I often just want to run the script with a new parameter setting to see if it works. At the moment I have to edit the script before I run it, so it woul...
