  • Fixed warning when t column not present in downloaded data.

Update - v.0.4.0

  • Expanded vignettes.
  • Fix minor bugs flagged by users.

Update - v.0.3.1

Addressing warning and note in CRAN checks from upload v.0.3.0

  • Vignette chunk with encoding and output issues causing WARNING will only compile locally for use in web documentation and now will not be compiled externally as it did not contain any crucial information and was used for additional detail.
  • Fixed missing package NOTE in rd xref

Update - v.0.3.0

General update of package. Changes include:

  • New search and metadata functionalities
  • Expanded API data coverage
  • New vignettes and docs
  • Checked on win-release and win-dev

Update - v.0.2.2

Minor update of package. Changes include:

  • Testing to ensure no issues with R 4.0.0
  • More efficient conversion between sp and sf spatial objects
  • Fixes issue occasionally reported when reading large GeoJSON objects
  • Adds geojsonsf dependency
  • Replaces soft deprecated dplyr functions with updated calls

Update - v.0.2.1

Minor update of package. Changes include:

  • Minor documentation improvements
  • Allow for search by vector identifier
  • Allow child and parent vector retrieval by vector identifier
  • Add functionality for future tax data release

Update - v.0.2.0

Maintenance update of package with some quality of life improvements. Changes include:

  • Improved variable tree searching
  • Better handling of numeric/string/factor alignments
  • Backward compatibility for some soft deprecated functions

Release checked locally, on r-hub, and winbuilder.

Update - v.0.1.8

Minor update of package. Changes include:

  • New minor usability features that do not change package internals
  • Addition of minor fixes
  • Replacement of unnecessary references to development-version packages in vignettes where CRAN versions now exist

Update - v.0.1.7

After initial acceptance, CRAN checks identified an issue stemming from the package using a local cache that writes to the user library rather than R's temporary director. Kurt Hornik advised to fix this and to submit an update.

  • This update changes default caching behaviour to confirm with CRAN requirements.
  • Users are prompted with a suggestion encouraging them to set up a persistent local cache on load, and a second reminder when making an API call.

Resubmission - v.0.1.6 - Approved

This is a resubmission addressing comments from reviewer Swetlana Herbrandt. In addition to recommendations for changes to package title and description to avoid redundancy and conform to standards, Swetlana noted that all examples are wrapped in /dontrun{} and are not tested.

In response, all package functions not requiring an API key to call are now tested in the documentation. All package functions including those requiring API keys are built, evaluated, and tested locally with online documentation. Swetlana suggested that this would be sufficient in a follow up email.

Documentation now includes a prebuilt static html vignette rather than pdf ones to better display functionality. Package fully builds and compiles on Travis.

Submission - v.0.1.6

First submission for this package. This is the first CRAN package I've developed so I apologize in advance if I have made any oversight. Thanks for your time.

Test environments

  • local OS X install, R 3.4.3
  • ubuntu 14.04 (on travis-ci), R 3.4.2
  • win-builder (devel and release)

R CMD check results

There were no ERRORs or WARNINGs and one NOTE:

  • A NOTE came up for "Maintainer:..." which I understand can be ignored

Reverse dependencies

This is a new release and there are no dependencies.

Vignettes

Vignettes require API authentification and code chunks are not evaluated when system variables are not enabled. Vignettes are prebuilt with pdfs included. Vignettes are evaluated locally and on Travis with log results.
