CRAN release: 2022-03-09

The package website https://jmbarbone.github.io/mark/ is now available! More references and vignettes will make their way here in future releases.

New features

  • Functions in ?handlers, all allow for additional params passed through ... #34

    • When TRUE, forces searches for .R files when the given directory does not contain an .Rproj file

  • read_clipboard() now returns NA when the clipboard is empty, rather than "" (improvements with internal type conversions)
  • improvements to NA handling as well

Other, non-visible

  • github actions updated
  • internal type conversion now heavily relies on utils::type.convert() with some additional functionality for logical (e.g., character string using "true" and "false") and for guessing dates in a YYYY-MM-DD format

mark 0.4.1

CRAN release: 2021-11-05

  • diff_time() correctly handles time zones when x is Date and y is POSIXt #41

Changes

  • updates file path finding functions (e.g., list_files()) to try to not search every file depending on desired searches (e.g., by full file paths or just base names)
  • as_ordered() handles factors better; S3 methods removed: as_ordered.ordered(), as_ordered.factor()
  • remove_na() has better performance when x has no NA values
  • counts.data.frame() and props.data.frame() retain attributes of selected columns
  • todos() and fixmes() will not search for .R or .Rmd files if the path is not changed from "" and no .Rproj is found within the directory

mark 0.2.0

CRAN release: 2021-08-23

Changes

  • package_available() now visibly returns TRUE/FALSE
  • remove_na() now has methods for lists and factors
  • environments() now has it’s own print.mark_environments() method rather than calling cat() within the function itself
  • array_extract()’s first argument is changed from arr to .arr
  • diff_time() now defaults to using UTC (Related to #32)
  • print.note() method has been updated (Related to: #33):
    • to print x normally, without the note class when just the note has to be seen
    • an internal function now handles the note formatted for class noted
  • changes to fact()
    • fact() now returns a vector with a fact element
    • fact.character() correctly labels NAs #24
    • fact.factor() not longer simply returns x but rather updates the levels and integer values to confirm with other fact() methods. fact.factor() will retain all levels of the original value, reorder the levels, and append NA if necessary
    • fact.fact() added to return a correctly formatted fact()
    • fact.logical() now orders levels as TRUE then FALSE, and NA if present
    • fact.Date() and fact.POSIXt() added, which simply call fact.numeric()
    • print.fact() method added to print a fact vector as a factor
    • as_ordered.factor() and as_ordered.ordered() now call fact() to check levels

Fixes

  • functions that check if an argument is a vector no long use is.vector() directly; arguments passed with attributes that when removed fulfill is.vector() are accepted
  • todos() and fixmes() now correctly show tags for .Rmd files
  • correction to error message in limit()
  • adds missing sort argument to props()
  • pseudo_id.factor() no longer returns NA_integer when a value is NA or a level is NA and correctly resets the order of the levels from the factor to their order of appearance
  • flip.data.frame() no longer coerces single column data.frames #36

New features

Non visible changes

  • code coverage added
  • additional tests added

mark 0.1.4

    • corrects NA counting in counts(); NA counts are now appended at the end whether or not sort is called
    • other optimization for counts()
    • core functions previously on base::rle() now use a combination of pseudo_id() and base::tabulate()
    • corrects counts for factor data when higher levels are not present #16
