If you ever need to fuzzy search some DNA, sassy is your tool. Please spread the word; I think many people just outside my own circle could benefit from this :) cc @rickbitloo.bsky.social github.com/RagnarGrootK...

oh wow, I didn't know it looks so cool in action, kudos to the tui design! I wonder if you've ever considered building a polars plugin for that as well? We've been using it a bunch for the sequence data consumption for ML purposes, and I wonder if it's something you have on your roadmap.

Thanks! I had good fun for an afternoon making the TUI pretty :) We do have python bindings already, but with polars you'd probably want to have the bindings directly in the Rust backend right? You're thinking of a plugin that filters the rows (records) of a table? Does it support multithreading?

>but with polars you'd probably want to have the bindings directly in the Rust backend right? yep, exactly -- to not cross python/rust border twice. >You're thinking of a plugin that filters the rows (records) of a table? something like that, yes: gist.github.com/marinegor/a5... (note `Lazy`)

Interesting. I think what makes most sense that the API directly returns true/false whether a row matches with cost <=k. Or maybe it returns Option<Match> with the first or best match found. I don't think I have the experience and time to make such a plugin right now, but would be happy to help :)

>I don't think I have the experience and time to make such a plugin right now, but would be happy to help :) thanks, noted! I'm figuring out how to do that for other usecase (currently on pickling, see issue: github.com/birkenfeld/s...), but later it's directly convertible to sassy.
