timeout
option to set the limit for the total time of each HTTP request (#125, @gladkia).
- No user visible changes.
cran_new()
works again.
- pkgsearch gives nicer error messages now.
-
pkgsearch functions return data frames now, instead of tibbles. The data frames have a
tbl

cran_new()
function to query new packages on CRAN.
-
Fix dependency handling in the add-in (@salim-b, #101)
-
pkgsearch uses curl now for the HTTP calls, instead of httr, which makes it a bit more lightweight.

function to return the trending CRAN packages. -
New function

for more search flexibility.
