Table schema

Column name	Data type	Required	Description
AsOfTimestamp	timestamp	No	Unused, always empty
LowerId	string	Yes	Lowercase package ID. Good for joins
Id	string	Yes	Original case package ID for an arbitrary package version
TransferIds	array of strings	Yes	Zero or more package IDs that receive the popularity from the package identified by the Id column
TransferLowerIds	array of strings	Yes	Same as TransferIds but all IDs are lowercased (for easier joining)

TransferIds schema

The TransferIds column is an array of strings where each string is a package ID of the package that will receive all or a portion of the transferred popularity. This array can be empty, meaning the package has no popularity transfers.

TransferLowerIds schema

This is exactly the same as the TransferIds column except the package IDs are lowercased.
