This is a method for the dplyr::arrange() generic.
See "Fallbacks" section for differences in implementation.
arrange() orders the rows of a data frame by the values of selected
columns.
Unlike other dplyr verbs, arrange() largely ignores grouping; you
need to explicitly mention grouping variables (or use  .by_group = TRUE)
in order to group by them, and functions of variables are evaluated
once per data frame, not once per group.
Usage
# S3 method for class 'duckplyr_df'
arrange(.data, ..., .by_group = FALSE, .locale = NULL)Arguments
- .data
- A data frame, data frame extension (e.g. a tibble), or a lazy data frame (e.g. from dbplyr or dtplyr). See Methods, below, for more details. 
- ...
- < - data-masking> Variables, or functions of variables. Use- desc()to sort a variable in descending order.
- .by_group
- If - TRUE, will sort first by grouping variable. Applies to grouped data frames only.
- .locale
- The locale to sort character vectors in. - If - NULL, the default, uses the- "C"locale unless the- dplyr.legacy_localeglobal option escape hatch is active. See the dplyr-locale help page for more details.
- If a single string from - stringi::stri_locale_list()is supplied, then this will be used as the locale to sort with. For example,- "en"will sort with the American English locale. This requires the stringi package.
- If - "C"is supplied, then character vectors will always be sorted in the C locale. This does not require stringi and is often much faster than supplying a locale identifier.
 - The C locale is not the same as English locales, such as - "en", particularly when it comes to data containing a mix of upper and lower case letters. This is explained in more detail on the locale help page under the- Default localesection.
Fallbacks
There is no DuckDB translation in arrange.duckplyr_df()
- with - .by_group = TRUE,
- providing a value for the - .localeargument,
- providing a value for the - dplyr.legacy_localeoption.
These features fall back to dplyr::arrange(), see vignette("fallback") for details.
