Changelog • supportR

supportR Version 1.4.0.900

Development version, changes from preceding version are listed below:

New function: count_diff. Similar to count except that it accepts two input vectors and counts the difference for each specified element (or all elements) between the two
Function fix: Fixed issue with replace_non_ascii where if include_letters was set to FALSE a warning was still generated for non-ASCII letters when they were part of a larger string (e.g., “<non-ascii>xyz”, etc.)
Vignette update: separated the single package vignette into separate, smaller files that give a tutorial for groups of functions with similar use-cases (e.g., quality control, data visualization, etc.)
Namespaced all function examples–should allow users to run example code without loading the package explicitly (though they will need to have installed the package at least once before)

CRAN release: 2024-06-13

Changes from preceding version are listed below

New function: replace_non_ascii. Replaces non-ASCII characters with ASCII characters that are as visually similar as possible
New function: count. Counts occurrences of each unique element in the provided vector
New function: ordination. Generic function that creates either NMS or PCoA ordinations. Makes extensive use of the ... argument to greatly increase level of control user can expect over internal base R graphing functions. Supersedes nms_ord and pcoa_ord.
Superseded functions: nms_ord and pcoa_ord are now superseded because they are special cases of ordination
New function behavior: nms_ord and pcoa_ord now support modifying axis label text size and axis tickmark text size
Began the process of adding units tests for most functions in the package. Users may notice some small cases where more informative errors/warnings are returned but generally this shouldn’t change function behavior in an appreciable way

CRAN release: 2024-04-12

Changes from preceding version are listed below

New function: force_num. Coerces a vector to numeric and automatically silences any warnings due to coercing values to NA
New function: safe_rename. Renames columns in a given dataframe by matching ‘bad’ names with ‘good’ names
New function: tabularize_md. Converts a markdown file into a table that retains the nested structure of any headings in the file

CRAN release: 2023-08-22

Changes from preceding version are listed below

New function: name_vec. Creates a named vector of specified contents and names
github_tree now supports excluding no directories from the folder tree (this is the default behavior now)
New function behavior: num_check now accepts multiple column names/numbers to its col argument
New function behavior: date_check now accepts multiple column names/numbers to its col argument
Deprecated function: multi_num_check is now deprecated (with a warning) because it is a special case of num_check
Deprecated function: multi_date_check is now deprecated (with a warning) because it is a special case of date_check

CRAN release: 2023-07-08

Changes from preceding version are listed below

New function: github_ls. Lists contents of specified GitHub repository either recursively or only top-level/specified folder
New function: github_tree. Creates a file tree diagram for a specified GitHub repository
Refined and clarified the package vignette
pcoa_ord and nms_ord now include arguments for changing point size (pt_size) and opacity (pt_alpha; i.e., transparency). Changes to point size are reflected in the legend but changes to opacity are not reflected in the legend points
Fixed a typo in the message returned by diff_check
Added example in documentation for crop_tri

CRAN release: 2023-02-09

This is the first fully-functioning version of the package. It currently has no ERRORs, WARNINGs, or NOTEs from devtools::check
