New Features and Enhancements

Section titled “New Features and Enhancements”

  • Your first rai models deploy on a new branch now works without a manual rai models pull first. rai models switch pulls the branch for you. A bare rai models pull also now defaults --path to the model.path in your raiconfig.yaml.

  • Tearing down a parent branch now removes its child branches too, instead of leaving them orphaned and unable to pull or merge. As a safeguard, rai models teardown --allow-children stops when a child has unmerged changes until you also pass --allow-unmerged. rai models list and rai doctor report now flag any branches orphaned by an earlier teardown.

  • The rai models commands now recognize when the schema you name is already your active model branch, instead of acting as if it changed. rai models switch no longer prints a false “Switched” message, rai models branch tells you to pick a different name instead of erroring, and rai models list marks your active schema with a *.

Bug Fixes

Section titled “Bug Fixes”

  • Fixed a bug that caused queries using union() to run slowly and, in some cases, hang indefinitely.

  • Fixed a bug that could cause aggregates grouped with per() to evaluate incorrectly when used solely as a filter and not selected in the query results.

Fixed a bug that caused aggregates grouped by an entity with a composite key to evaluate incorrectly.

  • Fixed an issue that could cause an “invalid identifier” error when deploying a model.

  • Fixed a bug that could case an “Object does not exist” error when deploying a model to a case-sensitive schema name.

  • Fixed a bug where a deploy could fail when a Snowflake view or dynamic table (an auto-refreshing Snowflake table) was created before another object it reads from.

  • Fixed a bug where deploying an unedited rai models init project could fail immediately with a “Symbol … is already registered” error.

  • Fixed a bug that could cause redeploying a model without any changes could fail.

  • Fixed an issue that prevented model re-deploys from picking up changes to a data sources Snowflake object.

  • Fixed a model deployment bug that ignored a user-supplied Snowpark session passed to create_config(), which is supposed to override any auto-detected Snowpark session.

  • Fixed a bug that could cause rai models pull or rai models merge to generate a runnable shared_model.py file. If you encountered this bug, pull or merge again to regenerate a corrected shared_model.py.
