Expand external table schema with schema.expand() on v5

[fjuniorr]

In v4 I could de-reference a table schema stored in an external file and when the package descriptor was exported to a file the table schema would be expanded. Something like this:

from frictionless import Package

url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/transparencia-mg/datapackage-reprex/yaml-schema/datapackage.json'

package = Package(url)
package.get_resource('estados').schema.expand()
package.to_yaml('datapackage.yaml') # the schema property would be fully dereferenced here

In v5 I get anAttributeError: 'Schema' object has no attribute 'expand'. I think this is because of the new metadata model used in v5, but I was wondering if there is any way to achieve the same functionality?

Hi @fjuniorr,

The expand command was also adding default values but if you're interested in the dialect/schema dereferencing I can quickly add something like package.dereference() to v5

That would be great @roll!

Do you want me to open an issue for this?

Thanks @roll !
