Will this be related to the "alter" namespace proposed in #1909? I need to implement a few of them for an application I'm developing

@abhiaagarwal yup, already have a PR open for this

@ion-elgreco Yeah, I read through it, but it doesn't explicitly namespace everything to "alter", on either the Python or the Rust side. Is that still planned? I want to develop Alter Column, I want to know what's the preferred format for developing a something in `core/operations'

@abhiaagarwal in the PR you can see it's added as a method to the TableAlterer class. I suggest to go through the PR because it shows what you need to do to add an operation in rust, expose it to python and then add tests for it

Sorry, I was unclear — I see that it does exist in Python, but will the idea of the "alter namespace" be exported to rust as well? I'm using delta-rs primarily in rust. I'm wondering how to group all Alter-related expressions together on the rust side to be exported into the alter namespace on the python, or to just handle it on the python side exclusively.

You don't really need to group them in rust, the grouping is mainly done in python under TableAlterer, you just expose it operation as a method under RawDeltaTable

@abhiaagarwal feel free to ping me on slack if you want to discuss, I have the same username there
