Improve the projection operator with renaming and re-ordering columns

Open zuozhiw opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

We want to finish the PR #1134, which allows projection to re-order columns.

Ideally, the new projection operator can do: 1) re-order columns, 2) drop columns (by selecting the checkbox), and 3) rename columns.

But if it's hard to combine into one single operator, one alternative implementation is to have 1) a projection operator that can do reordering and dropping, and 2) add a new renaming operator that only does renaming.

Update: we want to separate renaming and re-ordering: projection only supports dropping and renaming columns, we add another renaming operator to handle renaming
